Sand Shape Level 97 Solution

What You're Up Against

You’re working on an 8x6 grid with multiple green gems—but only six matter. Your goal is to draw six separate 2x3 rectangles, each enclosing exactly one of those six designated gems. No overlaps, no shared cells, and no requirement to cover every cell or use every gem. The small 2x2 “Required Shapes” icon is a visual red herring—it does not indicate the number of shapes needed.

Beating Sand Shape Level 97

1. Draw a 2x3 rectangle in the bottom-right corner covering gem (6,8): drag from (5,6) to (6,8) (00:24–00:25).
2. Draw a 2x3 rectangle in the bottom-left corner covering gem (6,1): drag from (5,1) to (6,3) (00:26–00:27).
3. Draw a 2x3 rectangle on the right side covering gem (3,7): drag from (3,6) to (4,8) (00:28–00:29).
4. Draw a 2x3 rectangle on the middle-left covering gem (3,2): drag from (3,1) to (4,3) (00:30–00:31).
5. Draw a 2x3 rectangle in the top-right covering gem (1,8): drag from (1,6) to (2,8) (00:32–00:33).
6. Draw a 2x3 rectangle in the top-left covering gem (1,1): drag from (1,1) to (2,3) (00:34–00:35).

Doing It Faster

• Prioritize gems near corners or edges—they’re easiest to box with clean 2x3 placements.
• Skip planning extra moves; this walkthrough uses only six precise drags—no revisions needed if timed right.
• Ignore empty cells and unused gems; focusing on the six target gems cuts decision time.
• The solution is deterministic—once you know the gem coordinates, execution is purely mechanical.

Where Players Slip Up

• Assuming the 2x2 UI icon means “make two shapes”—the real count is six.
• Trying to include more than one gem per rectangle (invalid) or leaving a gem unboxed (incomplete).
• Overlapping rectangles—even by one cell—resets progress instantly.
• Wasting time covering unused grid space; Sand Shape Level 97 only validates the six shapes.
• Misreading gem positions (e.g., confusing (1,1) with (1,2))—double-check coordinates before dragging. This walkthrough delivers the fastest path to success, and the solution hinges entirely on accurate placement—not speed or creativity.
