Video walkthrough

Quick tips

  1. Think right-edge white cleanup first.
  2. Black needs to form a staircase before the left gate is useful.
  3. If the board feels stuck, look for the color with the cleanest path and use that to regain space.

Step-by-step solution

Step-by-step solution

  1. 1

    Move 1

    Feed the lowest white piece on the right edge out through the white gate.

  2. 2

    Move 2

    Use the new pocket to peel the next white pieces toward the same exit instead of touching the tall red columns.

  3. 3

    Move 3

    Let the black pieces collapse into the lower-center staircase while the center rows are being cleared.

  4. 4

    Move 4

    Once most of the whites are gone, send the bottom black pieces left into the black gate and then pull the higher black square down into the same channel.

  5. 5

    Move 5

    Keep the red columns parked until the white exit and black gate are both finished with their traffic.

  6. 6

    Move 6

    Finish by running the remaining tall red column across the cleared top lane and out through the left red gate.

Common failure points

Sliding one of the tall red columns before the black staircase has formed.

Using the right-side white pocket for red movement instead of spending it on another white exit.
