Sand Blocks level guide
Sand Blocks: Drop Puzzle Level 430 Walkthrough
Level 430 opens with the game's Super Hard banner, a purple shutter marked 4 and a green reservoir counter at 17. Clear the compact top pocket, take the orange layer from the revealed white/blue/orange/yellow tray, then finish the purple, green, red, yellow and cyan feed changes on the open grid.

How to Solve Sand Blocks Level 430 — Full Solution
- After the SUPER HARD LEVEL banner at about 2:15, clear the small red, cyan, magenta and green receivers in the upper pocket. The green reservoir falls from 17 to 16, while the purple shutter and cover counters remain visible.
- Keep the central vertical lane open while moving the small purple receivers and the cyan L. Use the green L with the hammer icon on the left side only after the nearby red piece has left its row.
- From about 1:49 to 1:44, follow the purple feed into the left receiver and clear the cyan vertical/L on the right. The top-right green value moves from 15 to 13, and the purple circular badges drop toward 1.
- Continue with the red bars and the remaining green/cyan pieces. By about 1:34 the large purple cover shows 1, and the top room is compact enough for the next clear to expose the middle phase.
- At about 1:29, when the layered tray appears, place the orange horizontal receiver directly under the orange band in the centre. It reaches 100% by roughly 1:24; wait for the sand to settle before moving another large footprint over the tray.
- Between about 1:19 and 1:09, clear the green horizontal receivers, the red bar and the purple hammer receiver around the tray. Keep the white-over-blue sand visible in the tray and do not cover its mouth with the green L.
- At about 1:04 to 0:59, continue the green and red clears around the lower half. The remaining board still contains the central white layer, the purple checked receiver and the red-badge piece; leave their landing cells open.
- Around 0:54, remove the checked purple receiver and the adjacent red/blue pieces. The central tray becomes mostly white, and the visible purple/green counters continue to fall.
- At about 0:44 to 0:39, let the remaining white layer drain in the centre while the last purple and green receivers clear. The left feed then fills the purple hammer-marked receiver to 100% around 0:34, and the green L under the right feed is about 92% by 0:29.
- At about 0:24, the top feeds switch to blue and yellow. Place the cyan L and cyan vertical in the upper and right lanes, keeping the centre clear for the final red and yellow pieces.
- Around 0:19, the left feed turns red and the right feed turns yellow. Move the red L under the left red outlet; it reaches 100% by about 0:14. Keep the yellow receiver at the right feed until the red clear has opened the central route.
- At about 0:09, place the last cyan vertical under the right blue outlet. The final pieces clear and the board reaches the SAND BLOCKS animation at about 0:08.
Colors in this level:
Purple, Magenta, Red, Green, Cyan, Blue, White, Orange, Yellow, Brown
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Dropping the large green or cyan L across the central layered tray before the orange layer is collected.
- Treating the hammer icon as a separate tool action; those pieces simply fill as receivers.
- Filling the right cyan lane too early and leaving no landing cell for the last blue receiver.
Quick Tips for Sand Blocks Level 430 (quick clues)
- Clear the small upper-pocket pieces before moving the large green and cyan footprints.
- Take the orange layer from the centre tray first and wait for the white residue to settle.
- Leave the right cyan column empty until the final ten seconds.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The opening seven-column pocket sits under a red left feed and green right feed. A purple shutter at the upper-left shows 4, a second purple cover below the pocket also shows 4, and the top-right green reservoir shows 17. The pocket contains red bars, green L and vertical pieces, cyan L/vertical pieces, small purple receivers and pink checked receivers with circular counts. At about 1:29 a central tray opens with white sand over blue, orange and yellow layers between gold guide bars; the expanded board adds green and purple hammer-marked receivers, red/orange pieces, a checked receiver and a red-badge dispenser-like piece.
- Goal
- Reduce the opening purple and green clear counts, expose the central layered tray, take the orange layer before placing large shapes across its mouth, and then follow the later purple/green, blue, red, yellow and cyan feed sequence.
- Opening
- After the Super Hard banner at about 2:15, the green reservoir reads 16 and the purple counters still show 4. Clear the small magenta, cyan, red and green pieces around the upper pocket. By about 1:49 the green value is 15 and the purple feed starts; by about 1:34 the large purple cover shows 1 and the middle tray is close to opening.
- Danger Zone
- Do not place the large green L or cyan L across the central layered tray before the orange receiver takes the exposed orange band. That tray is the only visible source for the white/blue/orange/yellow stack. Keep the purple hammer receiver out of the right cyan lane because the final blue receiver needs that column.
- Mechanics
- The level combines a counted purple shutter, a second visible cover count, a layered multi-colour sand tray and hammer-marked receivers. The hammer-marked pieces fill as ordinary receivers; there is no separate hammer action. The feeds change from purple/green to blue, red and yellow, with the last cyan receiver clearing the right lane.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the central four-colour tray?
It is a layered sand source with white over blue, orange and yellow. The orange horizontal receiver must take the exposed orange band first, then the white residue can settle safely.
Do the hammer icons require a separate hammer move?
No. The green and purple hammer-marked pieces fill as ordinary receivers during the mid and late feed phases.
What is the final route?
At about 0:24 the feed switches to blue and yellow, then red appears on the left around 0:19. Finish the red L, keep the right cyan lane open, and place the last cyan vertical there around 0:09.
