How to clear Sand Blocks Level 178
Level 178 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
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.
- 2
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.
- 3
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.
- 4
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.
- 5
Sweep the edge pits early
Edge pockets rarely block the center, so take them while the board is still open and the drags are cheap.
- 6
Save scattered grains for last
Strays need the most pulling to gather. Once the big colors have settled, the leftovers drain fast.
Pro tips for Sand Blocks Level 178
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.
