Sand Blocks: Drop Puzzle Level 352 Walkthrough

expert 10 colors

Level 352 is two boards back to back. The first is a six-column grid of single-cell receivers under purple, blue and green hoppers, with a star box and striped bar in three rows and a chest counting 22 clears. When the chest reaches zero, a second board of L, T and bar shapes arrives under yellow, brown and magenta hoppers.

How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 352 — Full Solution

  1. At about 2:15 on the timer drag the blue 1x1 into the slot under the blue hopper. It clears at 2:13, the chest reads 21, and the blue striped bar in row 2 is one cell shorter.
  2. At about 2:12 feed the green cubes under the green hopper; the second one is 100% at 2:11 and the chest reads 20. Move the red cubes out of row 1 toward the left to open the middle slot.
  3. At about 2:07 fill another blue cube under the blue hopper (100% at 2:06, chest 19). The middle pipe now carries red and the right pipe turns magenta behind the remaining green.
  4. From about 2:05 to 1:57 keep the three slots busy: green cubes on the right, blue on the middle and purple on the left. The chest ticks from 18 down to 14, and the blue and green bars keep shrinking.
  5. At about 1:56 put the last blue cube under the middle hopper. It is 100% at 1:55, the blue bar is gone and the blue star box pops by 1:54 (chest 11).
  6. At about 1:53 red reaches the middle hopper: two red cubes clear there in quick succession and the chest drops to 8 at 1:52, while the red bar starts to shrink. The left pipe now carries yellow above the purple.
  7. From about 1:51 to 1:45 finish the purple cubes on the left and the green and red cubes on the right and middle. The chest reads 5 at 1:49 and 2 at 1:46; the green bar runs out and the green star box goes.
  8. At about 1:44 the last red cube clears (chest 1), the red bar vanishes and the red star box pops. The chest empties at 1:43 and the second board drops in at 1:42.
  9. At about 1:41 fill the yellow piece under the left hopper, then spend 1:40 to 1:19 sorting the tight second board: slide white bars and orange pieces out of the top rows and clear a brown piece under the middle hopper at 1:26.
  10. At about 1:18 clear a yellow bar on the left and a magenta double bar on the right (100% at 1:17). Then place the yellow L under the left hopper (77% at 1:08) and let it finish as white appears on top of the yellow.
  11. At about 1:01 fill a white bar under the left hopper (100%), then the white T-shape (cleared by 0:59). At 0:52 set the brown 2x2 under the middle hopper to take the last brown.
  12. At about 0:51 pull the white L from the dispenser (badge 2) and fill it on the left (70% at 0:50, gone by 0:48). The middle pipe is orange now: an orange bar is 100% at 0:48 and an orange L follows, cleared by 0:44.
  13. At about 0:43 put the magenta 2x2 under the right hopper (cleared by 0:42), pull the orange vertical from the dispenser (badge 1) for the middle (100% at 0:40), then the magenta L from the dispenser on the right at 0:39.
  14. At about 0:38 the right pipe runs cyan: fill the cyan L, the cyan vertical at 0:37 and the last cyan bar at 0:36. The board is empty at 0:35.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Trying to drag a star box or its striped bar. They clear themselves once enough cubes of their colour have been cleared.
  • Filling all three board-one slots with the same colour, which leaves two hoppers idle and costs seconds the chest count needs.
  • Emptying the second-board dispenser too early and parking its pieces where they block the side columns before their colour arrives.

Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 352 (quick clues)

  • The striped bars are not obstacles you can drag. Each clear of the bar's colour pulls it back a cell, and the star box disappears on its own once its bar is gone.
  • Work the top row first. Every clear drops the rows below and opens more of the three hopper slots.
  • On the second board, bring the pieces for the next hopper colour close before the current colour runs out; the left pipe turns from yellow to white, the middle from brown to orange and the right from magenta to cyan.
  • The second board's dispenser holds a white L, an orange bar and a magenta L, in that order, and each is needed when its hopper colour comes up.
Board notes 5 details
Layout
Board one: six columns, seven rows above a gold-trimmed chest marked 22. Three hoppers sit over c1-c2 (purple), c3-c4 (blue) and c5-c6 (green). Rows 1, 3, 5 and 7 hold 1x1 receivers in blue, green, red and purple; rows 2, 4 and 6 each hold a star-stamped box at c1 (blue, green, red) with a matching striped bar across c2-c6. Board two: six columns of cyan, orange, white, brown, yellow and magenta L, T and bar pieces, with a magenta 2x2 at the bottom left, a brown 2x2 at the bottom right and a dispenser marked 3 between them.
Goal
Clear 22 receivers on board one to empty the chest count, then clear every piece on board two, using the dispenser's white, orange and magenta pieces as the hoppers change colour.
Opening
Lift the 1x1s from row 1 into the cells under the hoppers: a blue cube clears under the blue hopper at 2:13 and the chest drops to 21, then two greens under the green hopper bring it to 20 by 2:11.
Danger Zone
Board one has only one landing row under the hoppers, so a 1x1 of the wrong colour parked there blocks that hopper until it is moved. The middle and right pipes also change colour (blue to red, green to magenta), so do not strand the last blue or green cubes behind the pieces of the next colour.
Mechanics
A chest counting every clear that swaps in a new board at zero; striped bars that shrink one cell per clear of their colour and pop the star box when gone; colour-switching pipes; and a second-board dispenser whose badge counts pieces left inside.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What does the 22 on the chest count?

    Clears. It drops by one each time a receiver or star box finishes. When it reached zero at 1:43 the first board was replaced by a second layout.

  • What are the long striped bars?

    Tallies for the star box at their left end. Each clear of the same colour shortens the bar by a cell; when it is gone the star box pops, as the blue one did at 1:55.

  • Why did the hopper colours change?

    The pipes feed a sequence. On board one the middle goes blue to red and the right green to magenta; on board two the left goes yellow to white, the middle brown to orange and the right magenta to cyan.
