Marble Sort Level 652 presents a board dominated by horizontal tunnels across the top tray, with a front row of boxes that initially only offers a clear path on the far right. The key is to methodically clear the right-side boxes first, then use the revealed boxes to break the numbered grey locks and free the trapped Orange and Light Blue marbles.

The top tray features five parallel horizontal tunnels that hold many marbles. The accessible bottom row of the top tray shows Brown on the far left, then Dark Blue, Light Pink, Green, Yellow, Red, and another Green on the far right. The bottom boxes initially have, from left to right: Orange, Light Blue, Orange, and Yellow. The Orange box on the left and the Light Blue box are blocked because no matching marbles are accessible. The Yellow box on the right has a matching Yellow group in the bottom row, and the rightmost Green group can be used once a Green box appears.

Marble Sort Level 652 Walkthrough

The front row of boxes demands Orange, Light Blue, Orange, and Yellow from left to right. This order dictates that you must clear the right side first because only Yellow is immediately available.

The main trap is that Brown and Dark Blue marbles are accessible at the bottom left, but they have no matching box in the front row. Tapping them would jam the conveyor belt. Instead, focus on the right side to reveal boxes that match the left-side marbles, and use those to break the numbered locks.

How to Beat Marble Sort Level 652 — Step-by-Step

Phase one: Clear the right side

  1. Tap the Yellow marbles on the bottom right of the top tray. They drop to the conveyor and clear the front-right Yellow box.
  2. Watch the bottom boxes shift; a Red box slides into that column.
  3. Tap the Red marbles in the top tray, located just left of the Yellow group you just used. This clears the Red box.
  4. Another Yellow box appears in the same column, but the obvious Yellow group is gone. Look to the right edge: there is a Yellow group under the bottom-right tunnel. Tap that to clear the second Yellow box.
  5. After that, a Green box slides into the right column. Tap the Green marbles on the far right of the bottom row to fill it.

Phase two: Break the lower locks

  1. Shift focus to the bottom left. You need to reduce the counter on the grey '3' lock above the Brown and Dark Blue marbles.
  2. After clearing the right side, the second column from the left should now have a Brown box and a Light Blue box revealed.
  3. Tap the Brown marbles on the far left. They drop into the Brown box and reduce the lock's counter by one.
  4. Tap the Dark Blue marbles next to them. This triggers the lock again, reducing it further.
  5. Now the Orange marbles in the second row are exposed. Tap them immediately to fill one of the front Orange boxes.
  6. Clearing that Orange box causes a Green box to slide forward on the left side. Use the Green marbles from the bottom row to fill it. This adjacent clear shatters the lower left '3' lock.

Phase three: Survive the tunnel cascade

  1. With the lower locks gone, focus on the Light Blue box still in the front row. The Light Blue marbles are trapped in the center-right, below the second tunnel. Tap them to clear that bottleneck.
  2. As you clear blocks under the tunnels, they will release hidden marbles. Let the tunnels empty completely so you can see all colors.
  3. The remaining bottom boxes will demand Pink, Purple, and more Orange. Prioritize Pink marbles that fall from the lower-left tunnel.
  4. Always clear marbles adjacent to the two remaining upper '3' locks to break them and reach the top row.
  5. If the conveyor belt gets tight, look for easy 3-marble clears on the edges. Match colors to the boxes as they slide forward.

Tips & tricks

  • Always check the bottom row of the top tray for accessible colors that match the front boxes before tapping anything.
  • When a lock shows a '3', plan to clear three adjacent groups near it, not necessarily in a row, but within a short span.
  • Use the conveyor belt as a buffer: if you have space, you can temporarily hold a color that will be needed soon, but avoid filling it with useless colors.

Common mistakes

  • Tapping Brown or Dark Blue early because they are accessible, only to have no box to put them in, jamming the conveyor.
  • Ignoring the right side and trying to break the left lock first, which is impossible without the revealed boxes.
  • Panicking when tunnels release marbles and tapping randomly, which can cause mismatched colors to pile up.
