What You're Up Against
Sand Shape Level 124 presents a 32-cell grid that must be split into eight distinct regions, each containing exactly four cells. A central triangle anchors the puzzle—it must belong to one of those 4-cell regions. Adjacent regions must differ in shape and color, and every cell must be used with no overlaps or gaps. You have three minutes to complete the solution.
Beating Sand Shape Level 124
- Draw a vertical 1×4 line on the far left to form a red region.
- Create an orange L-shape in the upper-left corner—this must include the central triangle.
- Draw a horizontal 1×4 line across the top row for a yellow region.
- Place a green L-shape in the upper-right corner.
- Add a vertical 1×4 cyan region on the far right.
- Build a dark blue L-shape in the bottom-right corner.
- Lay a horizontal 1×4 purple line along the bottom row.
- Complete the puzzle with a light purple L-shape in the bottom-left—filling all remaining cells.
Doing It Faster
- Prioritize corner and edge regions first—they’re less constrained and lock in early.
- Use the undo button immediately if a region exceeds or falls short of four cells.
- Skip trial-and-error: only L-shaped and straight (1×4) tetrominos fit; no T, Z, or square variants work here.
- This walkthrough saves time by sequencing regions to minimize backtracking.
Where Players Slip Up
- Making any region with fewer or more than four cells—invalidates the entire solution.
- Overlooking that the central triangle must be part of an L-shaped region, not a straight one.
- Forgetting adjacent regions need visibly different shapes—identical L-orientations next to each other will fail.
- Rushing step 2: misplacing the orange L so it excludes the triangle breaks the core constraint of Sand Shape Level 124.
