Sand Blocks: Drop Puzzle Level 36 Walkthrough
Level 36 begins as three interlocked receiver pairs: blue bar/L, yellow hook/L, and orange square/T/J shapes around a red square and bottom cross. Separate those footprints, clear blue and red, then route yellow and orange through the opened center.

How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 36 — Full Solution
- Slide the blue 1x2 bar from middle-left to center-right; keep the blue three-cell L in the left lane.
- Pull the middle-right yellow three-cell hook through center and stage it in the upper-right cells without covering the top neck.
- Move the orange T-hook from upper center-right toward the upper-left staging cells, keeping its horizontal arm out of the top neck.
- Drag the orange J-hook down the right wall into the lower-right parking cells; leave the orange 1x1 separate below the neck.
- Move the red 2x2 square from upper left-center into the central opening so the blue bar can reach the upper-right reservoir mouth.
- Drag the blue 1x2 bar under the upper-right blue pocket and wait for its 100% clear.
- Raise the red 2x2 square beneath the red lower half of the top neck and clear it.
- Move the orange T-hook through the center gap and park it below the left side of the neck.
- Drag the blue L from the left lane into the full L-shaped blue corner and wait for its 100% clear.
- Raise the bottom red cross through the center and hold its vertical stem beneath the top-neck red layer until the cross clears.
- Move the lower-right yellow L across to the upper-left L-shaped yellow reservoir; wait for both arms to fill.
- Drag the orange T-hook beneath the exposed orange layer in the top neck and clear it.
- Move the orange J-hook from the right wall beneath the orange spill and fill both arms.
- Finish with the orange 1x1 square under the last orange pocket; wait for the empty board and confetti.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Moving an outer hook while compact receivers still occupy its interior.
- Blocking the center with a long yellow/orange arm.
- Trying to raise the bottom red cross before its vertical route is empty.
Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 36 (quick clues)
- Keep each blue and yellow pair separated so both footprints retain a route.
- Check every hook arm before releasing a drag.
- Keep the vertical shaft free for the bottom red cross.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The top neck holds orange over red, with an L-shaped yellow reservoir upper left and inverted-L blue reservoir upper right. Receivers are orange 1x1/T-hook/right J-hook, red 2x2/bottom cross, blue middle-left 1x2/left L, and yellow middle-right hook/lower-right L.
- Goal
- Clear the blue bar and red 2x2 to open the shaft, raise and clear the bottom red cross, then finish in the verified yellow-L, orange-T, orange-J, orange-1x1 order.
- Opening
- Stage the middle-left blue 1x2 at center-right, move the middle-right yellow hook through center, and separate the upper orange T-hook from the orange 1x1 and right-wall J-hook; these drags create routes before any clear.
- Danger Zone
- Either long hook across the center seals both side chambers, while the bottom red cross cannot rise through an occupied shaft.
- Mechanics
- Irregular footprints interlock like puzzle pieces. No numbered gate and no key appear; every route opens through a verified 100% receiver removal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Level 36 use a numbered gate?
No; the verified solve progresses only through same-color fills and the space created when receivers clear.
Which shapes move first?
First separate the blue 1x2 from the left blue L, the yellow hook from the lower-right yellow L, and the orange T-hook from the orange 1x1/J pair.
What are the final layers?
After the red 2x2 and bottom red cross have cleared, collect the lower-right yellow L, then the orange T-hook, orange J-hook, and orange 1x1 square.
