Sand Blocks level guide
Sand Blocks: Drop Puzzle Level 329 Walkthrough
Level 329 puts a draggable red arrow piece at the centre of a four-column board, runs green sand in from the left wall and blue from the right into two counters both marked 1, and clocks a padlock-6 box and two checkered 8-badge receivers down together.

How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 329 — Full Solution
- Let the red sand block from the top tube land in the small chamber and let the receiver field populate; the board is still filling in during the first five seconds and nothing should be dragged before it settles.
- Watch the two wall counters and the two badge clocks together: the left 1 box takes green sand from the left wall, the right 1 box takes blue sand from the right wall, the padlock badge in the white box at c4 r1 goes 6→5, and the checkered receivers at c2 r5 and c3 r6 go 8→7 over roughly the first twenty seconds.
- Take the two-cell magenta horizontal at c1 r2 and the yellow-bordered red horizontal at c1 r3; they sit directly under the top chamber and fill before anything deeper.
- Clear the purple verticals at c2 r1 and c3 r1, then the magenta horizontal at c2 r2 and the magenta vertical at c3 r2, which together open the c2-c3 lane.
- Use the draggable red piece: it carries the 10 badge and the up/down arrow and it is the only thing on the board that can be repositioned, so keep it over the falling red sand rather than parking it in c3.
- Clear the blue L at c1 r5 and the green L at c1 r6 together; they are stacked in one column and the second only becomes reachable after the first goes.
- Take the red 1x1 at c2 r6 and the checkered 8-badge receiver at c3 r6 once the c2-c3 lane is clear, then finish the checkered receiver at c2 r5 and the green L at c4 r6, followed by the purple vertical at c3 r5 and the magenta vertical at c4 r5.
- From roughly t=50 the tube sends a pink wave and then a yellow wave; the late yellow receivers along the left and right edges fill from those two waves.
- Around t=60 the lower half is rebuilt around a dark vertical bar in the c2 column with a fresh set of magenta and yellow receivers; work them left to right, keep the c2 lane clear, and wait for the final purple and magenta pieces to clear into the SAND BLOCKS confetti card.
Colors in this level:
Red, Green, Blue, Magenta, Pink, Purple, Yellow, White
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Sliding the draggable red piece into c3 while the magenta vertical at c3 r2 is still at 0%, which blocks the c2-c3 lane and stalls the padlock-6 clock.
- Trying to use the left or right column before its wall counter marked 1 has reached zero.
- Starting the checkered 8-badge receiver at c3 r6 before the red 1x1 at c2 r6 has cleared out of the same lane.
Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 329 (quick clues)
- The padlock-6 box and the two checkered 8-badge receivers tick down together — if the checkered receiver at c2 r5 stalls at 7, the padlock will never leave 5.
- Keep the draggable red piece over sand that is actually falling; parking it in c3 blocks the c2-c3 lane.
- Both wall counters read 1 and are fed from opposite edges, so the green left feed and the blue right feed have to be live at the same time.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Four columns by six rows with a red/salmon tube over a small top chamber. The first four seconds show the pre-placement state: an empty grey grid crossed by a yellow guide path, the movable red piece with a white up/down arrow at its centre, two white counter boxes marked 1 on the left and right walls, and two large blue receivers across the bottom half. The field then populates with a green L at c1 r1, purple verticals at c2 and c3 r1, a white box at c4 r1 carrying a padlock icon over a gold-ringed badge reading 6, a yellow-bordered magenta horizontal at c1 r2, a magenta horizontal at c2 r2, a magenta vertical at c3 r2, a yellow-bordered red horizontal at c1 r3, the two 1 boxes at c1 and c4 of r4, a blue L at c1 r5, a purple vertical at c3 r5, a magenta vertical at c4 r5, a green L at c1 r6, a red 1x1 at c2 r6, a green L at c4 r6 and two pink-and-lavender checkered receivers with badges reading 8 at c2 r5 and c3 r6.
- Goal
- Drive both wall counters marked 1 to zero — the left one is fed by green sand entering the left wall and the right by blue sand entering the right wall — then release the padlock-6 box at c4 r1 by running the two checkered 8-badge receivers down, using the draggable red piece to route red sand rather than let it drop.
- Opening
- The first twenty seconds are the board teaching its counters. The padlock badge in the white box at c4 r1 reads 6 at t≈5 and 5 at t≈20, and the checkered receivers at c2 r5 and c3 r6 read 8 at t≈5 and 7 at t≈20. Meanwhile the left 1 box takes green sand from the left wall, the right 1 box takes blue sand from the right wall, and the red sand block from the tube lands in the chamber above the grid.
- Danger Zone
- The draggable red piece sits over the c2-c3 columns, which is also the only route from the top chamber down to the red 1x1 at c2 r6 and the checkered receiver at c3 r6. Sliding it into c3 while the magenta vertical at c3 r2 is still at 0% parks it over that lane, stalls both the red 1x1 and the checkered receiver below it, and leaves the padlock-6 box with nothing to count.
- Mechanics
- A draggable red piece carrying a white up/down arrow and a gold-ringed badge reading 10 is the only movable object on the board; two independent wall counters both marked 1 are fed by green sand from the left wall and blue sand from the right; a padlock-marked white box steps 6→5; and two pink-and-lavender checkered receivers step 8→7 in lockstep with it.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the red piece with the arrow in Level 329?
It is the board's only draggable object, carrying a white up/down arrow and a gold-ringed badge reading 10. It sits over the c2-c3 columns, which is also the route from the top chamber down to the red 1x1 at c2 r6, so where it is parked matters.
Why do two boxes both show 1?
The left box is fed by green sand entering the left wall and the right box by blue sand entering the right wall. They are separate counters that happen to start at the same value, and both have to reach zero before their columns open.
