Sand Blocks: Drop Puzzle Level 336 Walkthrough

expert 6 colors

Level 336 is a six-column board with counters 16/20/10, two stacked yellow-framed purple reservoirs (badge 15 upper, badge 12 lower) fed by left, centre and right pipes. The lower reservoir clears at about 1:00, the upper at about 0:45, then scattered large pieces fill one by one until a red 2x2 finishes last at 0:03.

How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 336 — Full Solution

  1. At 1:45 read the opening: counters 16/20/10, upper reservoir badge 15 at c1-c4 r3-r5, lower badge 12 at c1-c4 r6-r8, small receivers across r2, right zone packed with green vertical, blue vertical, red L, cyan pieces.
  2. Leave all pieces in place while counters drain. At 1:43 counters read 15/19/9 (badges 14/11); at 1:38 they are 13/17/7 (badges 12/9); at 1:30 they are 12/16/1 (badges 11/8).
  3. At about 1:25 the right counter (10) disappears; counters now about 9/13, upper badge 8, lower badge 5. Right-side c5-c6 receivers start accepting sand directly.
  4. At about 1:15 counters are 7/11, upper badge 6, lower badge 3. Keep c3-c4 centre lane clear for the green tube to reach both reservoirs.
  5. At about 1:00 the lower reservoir badge reaches 0 and its frame vanishes, opening r6-r8 as dark terrain. Counters about 3/7, upper badge 2.
  6. Between 0:53 and 0:45 the upper reservoir badge counts down to 0 and its frame disappears. The full dark grid is now visible with scattered large pieces: red 2x2 at centre, green horizontal bar c2-c4, yellow rectangle c3-c5, blue vertical, cyan L-shapes bottom-left, red L-shapes bottom-right.
  7. From 0:45 to 0:28 work large pieces toward the active feed columns; green bar and blue vertical under the tube feeds fill and vanish first, then the yellow rectangle and L-shapes follow.
  8. From 0:18 to 0:08 only the red 2x2 centre, a cyan L bottom-left and small remnants remain; stars appear as pieces clear.
  9. At about 0:03 the red 2x2 reaches 100% and vanishes; any remaining piece finishes immediately after. The board empties and the completion card shows New Feature!, 70% chest and Rewards 40 coins.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Moving the green vertical at c5 across the c3-c4 centre lane during the counter phase, blocking both reservoirs' feed and stalling both badges.
  • Dragging right-side pieces into the left zone before the lower reservoir clears at about 1:00, sealing the reservoir mouth.
  • Neglecting the red 2x2's feed in the late phase — it has the largest footprint and fills slowest, so blocking c3-c4 can strand it past the timer.

Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 336 (quick clues)

  • The lower reservoir (badge 12) must clear before the upper (badge 15) — they share the same vertical feed, so the lower empties first by design.
  • Leave all pieces in place during the counter-drain phase; the r2 receivers are the conduits the counters need.
  • After both reservoir frames vanish, work pieces top-down toward the three active feed columns: c1-c2 left, c3-c4 centre, c5-c6 right.
Board notes 5 details
Layout
Six columns (c1-c6) by roughly ten rows; three feeds — yellow pipe from left at r1-r2, green tube at c3-c4 centre, cyan pipe from right at r1-r2. Counters 16 at c1, 20 at c3-c4, 10 at c5-c6. Small coloured receivers fill r2 across c1-c6. Upper yellow-framed purple reservoir at c1-c4 r3-r5, badge 15 at 1:45; lower reservoir at c1-c4 r6-r8, badge 12 at 1:45. Right zone c5-c6 packed with green vertical r3-r5, blue vertical r3-r5, red L-shape r5-r7, cyan pieces bottom-right, yellow horizontal near bottom.
Goal
Drain the three counters through the r2 receivers while both reservoir badges step down. The lower reservoir (badge 12) clears at about 1:00, the upper (badge 15) at about 0:45, revealing a dark grid with large coloured pieces. Clear all pieces — green bar, blue vertical, yellow rectangle, cyan L-shapes, red L-shapes and the red 2x2 — finishing with the red 2x2 at about 0:03.
Opening
Leave all r2 receivers in place while the counters drain. At 1:43 the counters read 15/19/9 with badges 14/11; at 1:38 they are 13/17/7 with badges 12/9; at 1:30 they are 12/16/1 with badges 11/8. The right counter (10) disappears first at about 1:25, the lower reservoir badge reaches 0 at about 1:00, and the upper follows at about 0:45.
Danger Zone
Moving the green vertical at c5 leftward across the c3-c4 centre lane blocks both reservoirs. Dragging right-side pieces into the left zone before the lower reservoir clears at 1:00 seals its mouth. After both frames vanish the red 2x2 fills slowest — blocking its feed columns c3-c4 in the late phase can strand it past the timer.
Mechanics
Two stacked yellow-framed purple reservoirs with independent countdown badges (15 and 12), three top-row counters (16/20/10) draining through left/centre/right pipes, a phase transition at about 0:45 where both reservoir frames disappear and reveal a dark grid, and a red-2x2-last finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why does the lower reservoir clear before the upper?

    Both share the same vertical feed channel from the green tube. The lower sits closer to the outflow and drains first (badge 12 reaches 0 at about 1:00); the upper follows when its badge 15 reaches 0 at about 0:45.

  • Which piece finishes last?

    The red 2x2 in the centre. It has the largest footprint and consistently fills slowest, reaching 100% at about 0:03.

  • What are the three counters?

    16 at c1 (left pipe), 20 at c3-c4 (centre green tube) and 10 at c5-c6 (right pipe). They drain through the small receivers in r2 and step down roughly every 2-3 seconds. The right counter (10) disappears first at about 1:25.
