How to clear Sand Blocks Level 166

Level 166 is a Intermediate-tier board in Sand Blocks: Drop Puzzle. The video above shows one clean clear of it; the written guide below sticks to the pull-order principles that decide boards at this stage of the game — no invented move lists.

  1. 1

    Make the clear stick

    Once the level is done, run it again without the video open. That is what turns one lucky watch into a clear you actually own.

  2. 2

    Watch the full clear

    Press play above and follow the run start to finish before touching the board. Seeing one correct order is faster than a dozen blind attempts.

  3. 3

    Scan before you pull

    Before committing to a move, find every color on the board and the pit that holds the most grains of it. The survey is what makes the order obvious.

  4. 4

    Open the biggest pit first

    The largest flow takes the longest to drain. Filling it early frees the most space for every pull that follows.

  5. 5

    Plan the order, not the speed

    There is no move limit here — only the clock. A few seconds spent deciding which color goes next saves a full restart.

  6. 6

    Unblock before you commit

    When one color's flow would settle sand around another color's grains, clear the blocking flow first. Pulling into a trapped pit wastes moves you cannot get back.

Pro tips for Sand Blocks Level 166

Play it blind

After watching a walkthrough, clear the level without the video running. That is how the order actually sticks.

Biggest first

Fill the largest sand pit before the small ones. It takes the longest, and opening it up early makes every later pull land cleanly.

One watch beats three guesses

Look at a full clear before playing. Following one correct order once is faster than discovering it through repeated restarts.
