Sand Shape Level 170 Solution

What You're Up Against

Sand Shape Level 170 features an irregular grid with brown blocker cells and three triangle symbols plus two double-infinity symbols. Your goal is to fully cover every empty cell using expandable colored sand shapes while ensuring all symbols are covered and connected. The timer adds pressure, but accuracy matters more than speed—rushed moves create isolated gaps.

Beating Sand Shape Level 170

1. Begin at the pink block in the bottom center: drag left to form a 4-cell pink L-shape.
2. From the bottom-right corner of that pink L, drag right to build an orange L adjacent to it.
3. Extend the orange L upward then right to create a yellow T-shape; from its far-right cell, drag right again to form a light green L (completing the bottom-right section).
4. From the top of the light green L, drag up and right to make a light blue L covering the top-right triangle symbol.
5. From the leftmost cell of that blue L, drag left to form a large blue L covering one double-infinity symbol.
6. From the bottom-left cell of the blue L, drag down to create a purple L filling the bottom-left and covering a second triangle.
7. From the top-left arm of the original pink L, drag up and right to form a magenta L, then extend into a salmon U-shape covering most of the center.
8. From the upper-right of the U, drag up and right to build a brown/orange L covering the third triangle and mid-right area.
9. Fill the top-left corner’s empty cell (near the magenta block) with a green L covering the second double-infinity symbol.
10. Drag right from that green L to place a light blue block in the top-middle, then drag down from it to finish remaining cells with purple sand.

Doing It Faster

• Prioritize covering symbols early—each shape placement should include at least one symbol or edge blocker.
• Combine expansions: e.g., extend the orange L directly into the yellow T instead of releasing and reselecting.
• Use grid symmetry—notice how L-shapes mirror across the vertical axis; replicate patterns instead of recalculating.
• Skip unnecessary intermediate stops: drag fully from origin to final cell in one motion where possible.

Where Players Slip Up

• Leaving the top-left corner cell isolated until last—this cell must be filled by step 9’s green L, or it becomes unreachable.
• Misplacing the salmon U-shape: extending too far left or right breaks connection to the brown/orange L needed for the final triangle.
• Overlooking the double-infinity symbols—both must be covered by step 5’s blue L and step 9’s green L; missing either invalidates the solution.
• Rushing the purple final fill: dragging down from the light blue block too early leaves gaps below the U-shape—wait until all prior shapes lock into place.
