Green → Pink. The Orange is the bait. Leave it until its box is ready.

Marble Sort Level 262 presents a T-shaped Top Tray with a front row of Black, Green, and Orange clusters, but the active bottom Boxes only want Black, Pink, and Yellow. The entire puzzle hinges on ignoring the Green and Orange decoys until the later rows open up. If you tap them too soon, your Conveyor Belt jams and you lose control.

The Top Tray is a bulky T-shape with four side Tunnels (each labeled "3") flanking it. The top row holds three grey question mark tiles; below that sits a row of Purple, Black, Dark Red, Pink, and Blue. Another grey question mark row follows, then a row of Pink, Yellow, and Blue. The bottom of the Top Tray has three clusters: Black, Green, and Orange. The bottom Boxes start with a front row demanding Black, Black, Pink, and Yellow (left-to-right), and the Green and Orange boxes are buried deeper.

Marble Sort Level 262 Walkthrough

The front row of bottom Boxes demands Black, Black, Pink, and Yellow in columns one through four. The leftmost Black sits on the front line next to Green and Orange, but you must avoid those bait colors entirely.

The critical imbalance is that Green and Orange appear exposed at the start, yet no active Box accepts them until the third layer of bottom Boxes is revealed. Dropping them early will choke your Conveyor Belt, so you must peel the central grid in a precise order.

How to Beat Marble Sort Level 262 — Step-by-Step

Phase one: Clear the front row Boxes

  1. Tap the front-left Black cluster to fill the first Black Box.
  2. Leave the Green and Orange clusters untouched.
  3. Pull the single Black marble from the second row (between Purple and Dark Red) to clear the second Black Box.
  4. Extract Pink and Yellow from the fourth row (above the bait) to finish the front row.

Phase two: Crack the question marks and side Tunnels

  1. Tap the lower grey question marks one by one, feeding any Light Blue or Blue into the newly opened Boxes.
  2. Only tap a side Tunnel if its visible marble matches an active Box; ignore Purple or Dark Red for now.
  3. Dig out the Pink and Blue from the middle row to satisfy the second layer of Boxes.

Phase three: Release the bait and finish

  1. When the third layer of Boxes shows Green and Orange, tap the front-line clusters to fill them.
  2. Hit the final row of question marks slowly, matching each color immediately.
  3. Empty the remaining side Tunnels, pairing Dark Red, Purple, and Black with the last Boxes.

Tips & tricks

  • Keep the Conveyor Belt as empty as possible before revealing question marks.
  • Always check the bottom Box row before tapping any cluster; if it doesn't match, don't touch it.
  • Use side Tunnels as a buffer only when the visible marble is needed.

Common mistakes

  • Tapping Green or Orange early jams the belt.
  • Rapid-firing question marks without checking the belt causes overflow.
  • Ignoring the active Box row and pulling random colors leads to dead ends.
