⚡ Quick clear

Purple → Orange. The lock won't open without its key.

Marble Sort Level 214 arranges a Top Tray with a narrow left column and a bulky right cluster, while bottom Boxes tease with three Orange slots. The path to victory is to ignore those Oranges, work the right side for the Gold Key, unlock the left, and send the Purple Key back right.

On the left column, two Reds rest at the very bottom. Above them, a White box sits under a Gold Lock, with a Yellow box on top, and the Purple Key crowns the stack. The right cluster displays two Light Blues and a Purple in its bottom row, then Greens, Blues, and Connected Orange-Pink boxes above. A Gold Key box hides in the third row on the far right, while a Purple Lock chains two Gift Boxes in the middle. Bottom Boxes line up Oranges in columns 1 to 3, but column 4 starts with a Purple.

Marble Sort Level 214 Walkthrough

Front-row Boxes demand Orange in the first three columns, but those Oranges are paired with Pink in Connected Boxes, and no Pink slot exists initially. The safe entry is column 4, which holds a Purple.

The critical imbalance: if you force Oranges early, you drag Pinks onto the Conveyor Belt, jamming it. The right side is the only secure starting point.

How to Beat Marble Sort Level 214 — Step-by-Step

Phase one: Secure the right side

  1. Tap the Purple box at the bottom right of the Top Tray, guiding it into the Purple bottom Box in column 4.
  2. Next, release the two Light Blue boxes that were beside that Purple, letting them slide into the newly revealed Light Blue slot in column 4.
  3. Then, drop the Green box that sat above the Purple, clearing the right column further.
  4. Open the Gift Box marked with a 2 to remove its contents.
  5. Finally, tap the Gold Key box that becomes visible, sending it to shatter the Gold Lock on the left column.

Phase two: Unlock the left stack

  1. Drop the two Red boxes from the left column's base, leaving them on the Conveyor Belt for now.
  2. Release the White box from the left column.
  3. Follow with the Yellow box.
  4. Tap the Purple Key at the top of the left stack, sending it to break the Purple Lock on the right side, freeing two Gift Boxes marked with 3s.
  5. Now you can safely handle the Connected Orange & Pink boxes on the right, since Orange slots are open.

Phase three: Handle the Mystery Boxes

  1. Clear the front-row Oranges, which causes Mystery Boxes to appear in the lower area.
  2. Pause to see what colors the Mystery Boxes demand before making more drops.
  3. Feed the Blue and Pink Connected Boxes from the right side into the newly opened slots.
  4. Crack open the two Gift Boxes (3s) in the top right, flooding the board with new colors.
  5. If a Mystery Box asks for Red, the two Reds you parked earlier will clear the belt.
  6. Finish by dropping the White & Light Blue Connected Boxes, then the final Green, matching them to the last Mystery Boxes.

Tips & tricks

  • Keep your taps disciplined: never touch the Orange bottom Boxes until the Pink slots are available.
  • Use the Conveyor Belt as a temporary holding area for the Reds, but don't leave them there too long.
  • Watch the Mystery Boxes carefully; they dictate which colors you can safely drop next.

Common mistakes

  • Forcing the Orange slots early, which brings Pinks down and jams the belt.
  • Speed-tapping after the Mystery Boxes appear, causing mismatches.
  • Forgetting to use the Gold Key on the left lock before attempting the Purple Key.
