Quick tips

  1. Group the blue and orange blocks first — they dominate the opening board, so clearing them early opens the most space.
  2. Keep one column empty as a buffer until your first two merges are done; it is the only safe place to reverse a bad move.
  3. Park mixed or trapped purple blocks in the shortest column, never the tallest one, so you keep a clean exit lane.
  4. This expert board leaves little margin for error — plan the full exit route before your first move rather than reacting.

Step-by-step solution

Step-by-step solution

  1. 1

    Match the board

    Confirm the blue/ orange layout matches the walkthrough before you move; a different variant means a different solution.

  2. 2

    Clear the dominant color

    Merge the blue columns first to free the largest area of the board and reduce the pieces you must track.

  3. 3

    Open a buffer lane

    Shift orange blocks aside into one short column so mixed stacks stay separable and the exit lane stays open.

    Work top-down

    Clear from the top so nothing locks early; keep the buffer column available until the board is nearly empty.

    Route the exit

    Send the last blocks out through the same lane shown in the video, in the order the walkthrough demonstrates.

Common failure points

Merging the tallest column first burns your only buffer lane and traps the lower blocks behind it.

Chasing a full blue stack before separating mixed colors leaves blocks you can no longer reach.

Starting the timer before the board is matched wastes 8–12 seconds of recovery on a expert board.

Letting orange blocks sit behind others forces a restart you could have avoided with one early shift.
