Marble Sort Level 38 — Walkthrough and Solution

Marble Sort Level 38 is a fight against your own belt space from the opening tap. Cyan, Black, Orange, and Red crowd the rim of the drop zone, and the Top Tray narrows upward into a pyramid — solid colours on the edges, grey question-mark blocks across the upper middle, and two blue gates steering the whole flow.

The front row runs Cyan on the far left, then Black, then Orange, then Red on the far right. Behind the Cyan waits a Red, behind the Black a Brown, behind the Orange a White, and behind the front Red another Orange. A blue Tunnel marked 3 sits on the left, a second marked 3 in the middle-right, and the peak is all Hidden Boxes.

Marble Sort Level 38 Walkthrough

The Boxes open with two Reds on the left, one Cyan, and one Black on the right. That big front Orange is the decoy — it sits out in the open but no Orange Box exists in the front row. The Orange Boxes are buried in rows two and three, so touching that block dumps unusable marbles straight onto the belt.

Every block drops several marbles, and if enough matching Boxes are not there to catch them, the leftovers pile up on the belt. Space decides everything, so the opening works the edges and leaves the middle alone.

How to Beat Marble Sort Level 38 — Step-by-Step

Clear the front-row edges

1. Tap the front Red on the far right — the two Red Boxes in the front row swallow most of those marbles and keep the belt clear.
2. Send the front Black in the middle-left down to the Black Box on the front right.
3. Now clear the front Cyan on the far left into its Cyan Box, letting the leftovers sit on the belt, and note it exposes the Red behind it.
4. Leave the front Orange alone until the front row clears and the buried Orange Boxes rise.
5. Tap the newly exposed Red on the left to finish the remaining Red Boxes and shift the board backward.

Crack the Tunnels

With the first wave cleared, the board slides back and both blue Tunnels begin their countdown.

1. Pull the blocks parked right at each Tunnel's mouth to draw from them.
2. The grey Hidden Boxes up in the pyramid will flip as you clear the blocks in front, spilling Purple, Grey, White, and dark Red.
3. Check the shifting lower Boxes — Grey, Black, and White will appear in the active row.
4. The left Tunnel eventually spits a bright Purple block. Hold it unless a Purple Box is ready; otherwise park it at the exit.
5. Pair up the fresh White and Brown blocks to keep the middle columns pushing lower.

Survive the Hidden Box cascade

1. Prioritise the lower Boxes that match the stragglers choking your belt — if three Oranges are stuck, dig for an Orange Box.
2. Open the rest of the peak's Hidden Boxes gently, and only when your belt is half empty or better, since their colour stays hidden until the block ahead falls.
3. Drain the last items from the Tunnels — once their counters read zero they stop mattering.
4. Feed the final rows from the Grey and Black blocks left at the crown, tapping slowly so nothing wrong lands while a Box is still cycling.

Tips & tricks

• Ignore the front Orange completely at the start. Its Box is two rows down and the leftovers will clog you before you reach it.
• Work the edges first — Red, Black, then Cyan — because each has a Box waiting to catch its overflow.
• Let a Tunnel Purple sit at the exit rather than dropping it into an empty belt with no Purple Box.

Common mistakes

• Tapping the front Orange first. It dumps a huge load of unusable marbles onto the belt and chokes your space instantly.
• Pulling Hidden Boxes with a full belt. You cannot see their colour until the block in front falls, so a surprise reveal has nowhere to land.
