Sand Shape level guide
Sand Shape Level 111 Walkthrough
Sand Shape Level 111 is a dense Similarity and Difference marker square. Lock the left pink/peach/yellow/green/cyan stack, split the top-right into matching blue and purple bars, then close with the orange centre corridor.

How to Solve Sand Shape Level 111 — Full Solution
- Fill pink as the top-left vertical strip.
- Fill peach on the upper-left band beside pink across the nearby diamond.
- Fill yellow as the mid-left horizontal pocket under pink.
- Fill green as the top-centre vertical strip across the top diamonds.
- Fill cyan under peach in the mid-upper-left triangle pocket.
- Discard the illegal top-right square attempts that flash Similarity X versus green; rebuild blue as the narrower top right-of-centre strip so it matches green across the upper diamond.
- Fill purple as the far top-right block beside blue.
- Fill mauve as the mid-right pocket under purple.
- Fill orange as the small lower-right spur between mauve and the future lime block.
- Fill lime as the large bottom-right block under the right diamonds.
- Fill chartreuse as the bottom centre-right strip left of lime.
- Fill aqua as the bottom centre-left edge strip.
- Fill indigo as the bottom-left block under yellow.
- Fill magenta as the small pocket under yellow toward the centre corridor.
- Fill maroon as the bottom-centre strip under the corridor.
- Extend orange up the centre vertical corridor so it joins the lower-right spur and completes the board.
Colors in this level:
Pink, Peach, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, Purple, Mauve, Orange, Lime, Chartreuse, Aqua, Indigo, Magenta, Maroon
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Keeping the top-right as one square so Similarity fails against green and the diamond shows a red X.
- Flooding the centre corridor early and stealing cells from yellow, cyan, or the final orange join.
Quick Tips for Sand Shape Level 111 (spoiler-free)
- Finish the full left stack before touching the top-right.
- When the top-right flashes a Similarity X, shrink it into a tall bar matching green.
- Keep the centre corridor cream until the periphery is set, then extend orange through it.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A cream square holds a dense brown wall lattice with double-diamond Similarity pegs on the upper, left, right, and lower joins, triangle Difference pegs through the middle, and a tall open centre corridor.
- Goal
- Paint fifteen interlocking regions so every diamond join links matching silhouettes and every triangle join links unlike ones.
- Opening
- The verified run fills pink as the top-left vertical strip, peach beside it, yellow as the mid-left pocket, green as the top-centre vertical, then cyan under peach.
- Danger Zone
- Painting the top-right as one large square (the video's blue then purple attempts) fails Similarity against green at the upper diamond and flashes a red X on the Similarity card.
- Mechanics
- Similarity connects same shapes combines with Difference connects different shapes; no gem tokens and no Required Shapes card.
Frequently Asked Questions
What rules does Sand Shape Level 111 use?
Similarity connects same shapes and Difference connects different shapes. Matching silhouettes must meet at every double-diamond; unlike silhouettes must meet at every triangle.
Why does Level 111 flash a red X on the top-right?
The video paints the top-right as a square that does not match green's tall vertical strip across the upper diamond. Split it into blue and purple bars that match green.
