Block Out Level 38 has a `12` boss chamber buried under a structured lid of three blue `2` blocks, a pink `15` block, and a purple `6` device. The lid has its own internal sequence — blue `2`s are fast, the device is medium, and the pink `15` is slow — and must be dismantled piece by piece before the boss can drop. After the boss falls around 01:33, a mass of red, pink, green, and blue blocks spills out for a second sorting phase.

Quick tips

  1. The lid has its own order: blue `2`s first (fast), purple device second (medium), pink `15` last (slow).
  2. Watch for the spill at 01:33 — if side lanes are not ready, the revealed blocks jam the room.
  3. Think in chain clears. The best move is the one that sets up the next two moves, not just the quickest current match.

Step-by-step solution

Step-by-step solution

  1. 1

    Move 1

    Clear the three blue `2` blocks from the top row first — they are the quickest lid reductions.

  2. 2

    Move 2

    Service the purple `6` device on the top-left by routing the yellow block through its gate.

  3. 3

    Move 3

    Begin thinning the pink `15` block on the upper-right now that the blue blocks are gone.

  4. 4

    Move 4

    Watch the boss counter drop through `8` as the lid thins (visible around 01:42).

  5. 5

    Move 5

    Open the side lanes so the revealed blocks have somewhere to go after the boss falls.

  6. 6

    Move 6

    Let the `12` boss collapse once the lid is mostly gone — the spill happens around 01:33.

  7. 7

    Move 7

    Sort the revealed red, pink, green, and blue blocks through the side and bottom exits to finish.

Common failure points

Skipping the blue `2` blocks and going straight for the pink `15` — the lid stays too thick for the boss to move.

Not having the side lanes open when the boss falls at 01:33, which means the revealed blocks pile up with nowhere to go.
