Marble Sort Level 198 — Walkthrough and Solution

Marble Sort Level 198 presents a board where the upper area holds a wide cluster of marbles on the left and center, but the right side is missing a chunk. In the front row you see Dark Blue, Red, Light Pink, and another Dark Blue. The lower section starts with four Boxes: Light Pink on the far left, Dark Blue next to it, Red beside that, and Dark Blue on the far right. Two Dark Blue Boxes are open, but only two Dark Blue marbles are visible initially, so you cannot clear them yet. Behind the front row, Purple, Cyan, Yellow, and Brown marbles are packed tightly. In the top right corner, two Tunnels each display a counter of 3. These Tunnels will release hidden marbles only after you clear the columns that block them.

The main challenge is that the bottom Boxes rotate in a pattern that tempts you to drop colors early, but doing so will clog the Conveyor Belt. Green marbles are particularly dangerous because they appear deep in the tray, and if you pull them before the Green Boxes are active, they will block the belt. The solution is to follow a strict order: first clear the front row, then release the Tunnels, and only then handle the deeper colors.

Marble Sort Level 198 Walkthrough

Start by looking at the bottom Boxes: Light Pink is on the far left, Dark Blue is second from left, Red is second from right, and Dark Blue is on the far right. The top row mirrors this with Light Pink in the third column, Dark Blue on the far left and far right, and Red in the second column. You need to drop these colors into their matching Boxes, but you must avoid pulling extra colors that have no open Box yet.

The trap is that clearing the front row exposes more marbles, including Purple and Cyan, but the Boxes for those colors are not yet available. If you drop them early, they will sit on the Conveyor Belt and block your progress. The key is to focus only on the colors that have an open Box, and to use the Tunnels as a way to get extra marbles when you need them.

How to Beat Marble Sort Level 198 — Step-by-Step

Phase one: Clear the opening row

1. Tap the Light Pink marble in the third column of the Top Tray and guide it to the far-left Light Pink Box.
2. Tap the Dark Blue marble on the far left of the front row and drop it into the inner-left Dark Blue Box.
3. Tap the Dark Blue marble on the far right of the front row and send it to the far-right Dark Blue Box.
4. Tap the Red marble in the second column and route it to the inner-right Red Box.
5. Now the second row is exposed. Tap the new Red marble and drop it into the Red Box to finish it. This clears the first Box and reduces the counter on the left Tunnel from 3 to 2.
6. Tap the new Dark Blue marble and place it in the inner-left Dark Blue Box to fill it partially.

Phase two: Release the Tunnels

1. The bottom row now shifts, and you see more Dark Blue and Light Pink Boxes. Focus on the columns in front of the Tunnels. Tap the Yellow marble that is blocking the left Tunnel and park it on the Conveyor Belt if necessary.
2. Tap the Cyan marble blocking the right Tunnel and slide it into the active Cyan Box if it is available, otherwise rest it on the belt.
3. Continue clearing the blockers in front of the Tunnels. As you do, the counters will drop. When a Tunnel reaches zero, it will release either Red or Green marbles.
4. While doing this, avoid touching Green marbles. They are not needed yet. Instead, clear Light Pink marbles from the center of the Top Tray to finish the Light Pink Boxes.
5. When the Tunnels release Red marbles, drop them into any open Red Box. If the Red Box is already full, keep them on the belt temporarily.

Phase three: Handle the deeper colors

1. Once the Yellow and Cyan Boxes are active, tap the Yellow marbles on the right side of the Top Tray and match them with the hidden Yellows on the left to clear the Yellow Box.
2. Do the same for Cyan marbles, clearing the Cyan Box.
3. Now the bottom Boxes will show Purple, Green, Yellow, and Green. This is your cue to release all the Green marbles you have been holding. Tap them and drop them into the Green Boxes.
4. Finally, clear the remaining Purple and Brown marbles. Use the Conveyor Belt to store any extra marbles while you finish the matches.

Tips & tricks

• Always check the bottom Boxes before making a move. Only drop a marble if it matches an active Box.
• Use the Conveyor Belt as a temporary storage, but never fill it with more than two marbles. If it gets full, you lose.
• When the Tunnels open, they release marbles that may not have a Box yet. Be ready to park them on the belt until the right Box appears.

Common mistakes

• Dropping Green marbles too early is a common mistake. Wait until the Green Boxes are active.
• Another mistake is trying to clear all Dark Blue marbles at once. You need more from the Tunnels to finish that color.
• Ignoring the Tunnels and focusing on the center can leave you stuck without enough marbles to clear the final rows.
