Sand Blocks: Drop Puzzle Level 384 Walkthrough
Level 384 runs the whole 2:55 clock. One counter drives every number: the green glass (15), the yellow glass (10), two plaid wrappers (26 and 20), a shutter (6) and later an ice bar and a glass-capped side slot all drop by one per clear. Only the red hopper in c1 is open at the start. Three long stretches with no clear (about 2:40, 2:10 and 1:18) nearly ran the time out, and the last purple piece filled with the timer at 0:00.

How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 384 — Full Solution
- At about 2:55 on the timer, drop small red receivers under the c1 hopper. The first clear takes every number down by one (green 14, yellow 9, wrappers 25 and 19, shutter 5).
- Keep feeding red: the shutter reads 4 at 2:50, and the red vertical fills at 2:49 (shutter 3) as the c1 pipe switches to blue. More clears reach shutter 2 at 2:45 and 1 at 2:40.
- Rearrange the top rows until the red L reaches the c1 hopper. It fills at about 2:26 and the shutter lifts at 2:25.
- Use the orange pouring into the left side slot. A small orange clears around 2:19-2:18 and the orange vertical fills at 2:10; that clear breaks the cyan ice (a purple bar is inside) and leaves the yellow glass at 1.
- Pull the orange vertical out of the left dispenser (badge 3 at about 1:47). It is 94% full at 1:46, and its clear breaks the yellow glass at 1:45.
- Fill the yellow L and yellow bars under the c7 hopper (the L is filling at about 1:40). The counters step 4, 3, 2, 1 between 1:39 and 1:32 as the yellow pipe runs dry.
- Another orange vertical at the left slot (95% at about 1:27) breaks the green glass at 1:26. Fill green verticals under c2 until the small wrapper reads 1 at 1:19.
- Push through the stall until a green bar reaches c2 at about 0:55. The small wrapper opens into a blue bar; slide it under the c1 hopper, where it is full at 0:52 as the pipe turns cyan.
- Empty the left dispenser (badge 2 at 0:50, 1 at 0:49, gone at 0:48) and put a yellow bar under c7 (12% at 0:43, clear by 0:42). Then empty the right dispenser (2 at 0:39, 1 at 0:38), which gives a magenta L.
- Clear cyan bars and verticals under c1 until the big wrapper reads 1 at about 0:23. It opens into a brown square at 0:19.
- Take the brown square to the left slot while it runs brown, then catch white there with a white vertical (0:15-0:13). The right glass breaks at 0:12.
- Fill the magenta L at the right slot (32% at 0:11, full at 0:10), then white Ls from the white that follows (82% at 0:09).
- The right slot switches to purple at about 0:05. Fill the purple bar, the purple L (57% at 0:02) and the last purple vertical (60% at 0:01); the board empties at 0:00.
Colors in this level:
Red, Blue, Cyan, Green, Yellow, Orange, Brown, White, Magenta, Purple
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Sitting at shutter 1 with no red receiver near c1; it cost about 14 seconds at the start.
- Forgetting the left side slot. It is the only open source after the shutter lifts and it breaks the yellow glass.
- Letting the 1:18-0:56 stall happen: over twenty seconds without a clear on a level that finishes at 0:00.
- Burying the purple pieces under white Ls; purple is the last colour and there is no time left to dig.
Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 384 (quick clues)
- Every clear counts toward every number, so the quickest clear available is always the right one.
- The left side slot is open as soon as the shutter lifts. Use its orange to break the ice and yellow glass while the top is stuck.
- Keep one purple receiver clear near the right edge for the last seconds; purple is the final colour and arrives with under five seconds left.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Seven columns. Along the top: an open red hopper in c1 (its pipe later runs blue, then cyan), a green hopper under glass 15 in c2 and a yellow hopper under glass 10 in c7. Four rows of receivers below them: orange, red, purple, yellow, cyan, blue and green verticals, bars and Ls, a big plaid wrapper marked 26 at c6-c7 and a flat one marked 20 at c3-c4. A shutter marked 6 hides the lower half. Behind it: an open side slot on the left edge fed by an orange pipe (later brown, then white), a slot on the right edge under a pink-striped glass marked 25 in front of a white pipe, a cyan ice bar marked 3, white Ls and verticals, and two dispensers, left marked 4 and right marked 3.
- Goal
- Six red clears lift the shutter, then the counter breaks the ice (2:10), the yellow glass (1:45) and the green glass (1:26). The wrappers open into a blue bar (0:54) and a brown square (0:19), and the right slot's glass breaks at 0:12. The board empties exactly as the timer reaches 0:00.
- Opening
- Red receivers go under the c1 hopper: the counters read 14/9/25/19 with the shutter at 5 by 2:54, and the red vertical is full at 2:49 (shutter 3) as the pipe turns blue. The shutter is at 1 by 2:40, then nothing clears until the red L fills at 2:26. The shutter lifts at 2:25.
- Danger Zone
- There were three droughts: shutter 1 from about 2:40 to 2:26, yellow glass 1 from 2:10 to 1:47, and the whole board stalled from about 1:18 to 0:56. The board only empties at 0:00, so any extra stall times out. Before each one, have the next receiver already lined up under an open hopper or slot.
- Mechanics
- Shared clear counter across two glass caps, two movable plaid wrappers, the shutter, the ice bar and the right-edge glass. Ice holds a purple bar. Wrappers open into ordinary receivers (blue bar, brown square). Hoppers and side slots change colour: c1 red → blue → cyan, left slot orange → brown → white, right slot magenta → white → purple. The left dispenser (4) starts with an orange vertical, and the right one (3) includes a magenta L.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do the glass, wrapper and shutter numbers count separately?
No. They share one counter, and each clear lowers every visible number by one, including the ice bar and the right slot's glass once they are uncovered.
What are the plaid blocks with numbers?
Wrapped receivers that can be dragged around. The one marked 20 opens into a blue bar at about 0:54, and the big one marked 26 opens into a brown square at 0:19.
What is behind the pink-striped glass on the right?
A side slot on a white pipe. It breaks at about 0:12 and gives magenta first, then white and finally purple.
What are the purple boxes at the bottom?
Dispensers. The left one (4) starts with an orange vertical and the right one (3) includes a magenta L. The badge counts the pieces left inside.
