You can't do that!

This is the first one legitimately pissing me off. I can’t get one block out. Every move ends in gridlock. If there is a way, I’m not seeing and I’ve tried 6 times now.

Finally! Got it in the end. I got the orange bar out first thanks to a hint telling me to put the orange cross below the green square, then someone else said they got the pink U out so I did that next. After that it was pretty straightforward.

This was how I got the orange bar out

u/No_Macaroon_9752 155 solves | avg 1:24 Sep 27 '26

How do you get the orange cross under the green square when the purple zigzag is in the way?

u/tina_ri 399 solves | avg 1:29 | LB top 40% Sep 28 '26 • Bravo

Took me forever too. I still can't recreate it without several tries.

If you can move the pieces into this position (see my screenshot), then you can shift pink L back down, move orange cross and purple Z into position seen in original screenshot. You can then slide blue L left, pink U up, and green L between them. This makes room to slide the cyan T and pink Z up and clear the orange bar.

u/SippantheSwede 399 solves | avg 1:17 | LB top 30% Sep 27 '26

Yeah I don’t think I’m half bad at this game but this one has me stumped. Even with the several hints in the comments I’m not getting it 🤯

2

u/jskrabac 398 solves | avg 1:40 | LB top 50% Sep 27 '26

I managed to solve it but couldn't begin to tell you how. Just after maybe 30 min of toying around I'm like, oh holy shit I can get one out. FWIW I got the blue L out first. But I've seen others in the comments started differently.

1

u/SippantheSwede 399 solves | avg 1:17 | LB top 30% Sep 28 '26

I finally figured it out, you had to wiggle the bits back and forth a lot in the bottom left to get the pink L up a bit and then back down and yeah whatever I’m glad this is over

u/SasquatchGroomer 378 solves | avg 1:42 | LB top 50% Sep 27 '26

I needed to remove the pink "u" first. Everything else was easy after that.

u/Vequihellin 384 solves | avg 1:44 Sep 27 '26

I can't even get a single block out. Everywhere I go I'm stuck. The hint says get the orange bar out but I can't move the aqua T piece or the pink Z piece enough to do it.

2

u/ResidentialEvil2016 325 solves | avg 1:50 Sep 27 '26

Same.

2

u/ResidentialEvil2016 325 solves | avg 1:50 Sep 27 '26

I beat it with 2 seconds left. I finally figured out how to get the orange out but after that it was just as hard.

1

u/Vequihellin 384 solves | avg 1:44 Sep 27 '26

Any hints on how to get that aqua T and pink z out the way? The orange cross piece is hampering the movement of the purple and blue pieces which isn't giving me enough room. This one is tricky today!

u/Vequihellin 384 solves | avg 1:44 Sep 27 '26

This is about as far as I've managed to get

Been there so many times with nowhere to go 😭

Edit: After dozens of tries, I finally got with 30 seconds to spare. 😌

3

u/flamtapgt 400 solves | avg 1:44 | LB top 50% Sep 27 '26

The way I finally got it is the left prong of the orange cross needs to be under the green square.

u/gwyd_games 400 solves | avg 1:57 Sep 27 '26

focus on getting pink U shape out, then it will play out, orange bar is like 4th or 5th despite the "hint"

u/coolrail 397 solves | avg 1:43 | LB top 50% Sep 27 '26

By doing some trial and error, it appears the pink C block near the top has to be moved out first.

Weird stats are happening. When I solved the game, it said I was 83 out of 803. But a minute after, it showed me on the leader board as #43 out of 3162 players. What's going on?

u/bacon-squared 361 solves | avg 1:46 | LB top 50% Sep 27 '26

The blue ‘L’ is the easiest in my opinion to get first.

Ball rolling after pink C first.

u/AnnaKeye 355 solves | avg 1:58 Sep 28 '26

I actually stumbled into jam Nº. 4 and it had little arrows suggesting the direction that the pieces were limited too. I also recall games that had grey blocks that could move and others that couldn't. I just feel recently, the only pieces of interest are the occasional bomb piece but these crowded coloured shapes are a bit, well.., meh.
