How to Solve Sand Shape Level 6 — Full Solution
- Fill the orange upper-left L: `r1c1`, `r1c2`, and `r2c1`.
- Fill the yellow upper-middle L: `r1c3`, `r2c2`, and `r2c3`.
- Fill the green left-middle L: `r3c1`, `r3c2`, and `r4c1`.
- Fill the turquoise right-middle L: `r2c4`, `r3c3`, and `r3c4`.
- Fill the blue lower-left L: `r4c2`, `r4c3`, and `r5c2`.
- Finish with the purple lower-right L: `r4c4`, `r5c3`, and `r5c4`, then wait for the completion transition.
Colors in this level:
Orange, Yellow, Green, Turquoise, Blue, Purple
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Extending the yellow top region into `r2c4`; that cell belongs to the separate turquoise L.
- Combining the two lower regions into a four-cell zigzag; the required regions are three-cell Ls.
Quick Tips for Sand Shape Level 6 (spoiler-free)
- Use the stepped outline as a guide: the top two Ls occupy rows 1-2, then the four lower cells are resolved as two Ls on each side.
- Count three cells per region and check the corner cell before filling; the bottom two Ls touch diagonally but do not share a cell.
- If the board feels stuck, look for the color with the cleanest path and use that to regain space.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The playable board fits a 5-row by 4-column box: rows 1-4 begin at column 1, row 5 begins at column 2, and the top row ends at column 3. The rule card shows a three-cell L shape.
- Goal
- Partition the 18 cells into six L triominoes: orange `r1c1`, `r1c2`, `r2c1`; yellow `r1c3`, `r2c2`, `r2c3`; green `r3c1`, `r3c2`, `r4c1`; turquoise `r2c4`, `r3c3`, `r3c4`; blue `r4c2`, `r4c3`, `r5c2`; and purple `r4c4`, `r5c3`, `r5c4`.
- Opening
- Start with the upper-left orange L, then fill the yellow L beside it before moving down to the left-side green L.
- Danger Zone
- The upper-right cells form a separate turquoise L around `r2c4`-`r3c4`; do not extend the yellow region into column 4. At the bottom, keep the blue and purple Ls separate at their diagonal-looking junction.
- Mechanics
- The video shows six successful fills matching the displayed L triomino. It does not show a failed attempt or establish a life counter, so the walkthrough records only the visible shape rule and confirmed placements.
