How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 299 — Full Solution
- Pull cyan below feed 3 and purple below feed 2; clear pink top cells so both feeds tick.
- Alternate counter 13 and counter 17 drops; keep long footprints out of the center c3-c5 lane.
- Place yellow L in upper-center r2c3-c4 and purple at r2c6, keeping shutter-9 handle r4c4 visible.
- Clear green side receiver and cyan bar above shutter 19; wait for shutter 9 to read zero and retract.
- Send long yellow L through the middle, then pull adjacent orange bar before it covers the lower handle.
- Route green and pink/purple shapes around r5-r6, leaving cyan above shutter 19 unobstructed.
- Reduce shutter 19 to zero, wait for lower roller, then clear bottom yellow/orange/green left-to-right.
- Wait for both shutters to show 100% and chambers to drain before confirming completion.

Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Upper grid has feed counters c1=3,c3=2, side counters c1=13,c7=17 and lower-left 19; shutters 9 (r4) and 19 (r7). Cyan/pink/purple cells, yellow L, orange and green bars occupy r1-r3; cyan horizontal sits above shutter 19.
- Goal
- Lower the upper counters, open shutter 9, preserve the middle chamber for the yellow L and green bar, then reduce shutter 19 and drain the bottom wave.
- Opening
- Clear cyan/purple pieces below counters 3 and 2, then alternate left 13 and right 17 without sealing the center feeder.
- Danger Zone
- The two shutter doors share the middle chamber. A long yellow L there blocks the green side receiver and the lower 19 handle.
- Mechanics
- Two numbered shutters, five counters, shared chamber, staggered feeds and yellow-green-orange finish define the level.
Frequently Asked Questions
What must open first?
The upper shutter marked 9; it creates the middle chamber needed by the yellow L and green bar.
Why does shutter 19 remain stuck?
A receiver is covering its center handle or the shared chamber is still occupied by a long L.
