Block Out Level 788 Walkthrough and Sorting Strategy

To clear Level 788 in Block Out, your immediate goal is to drain a single column completely to create an empty buffer space. Once an empty slot is open, use it solely as a transit lane to uncover buried blocks that match your largest visible stacks. Filling this lane with mixed, unsorted blocks will quickly freeze your board into an unrecoverable deadlock.

Opening Move: Creating Your First Empty Column

Because Level 788 scatters alternating color layers across the board with limited starting room, transferring blocks at random will rapidly lock your columns. You must open a dedicated working lane before attempting deeper sorting.

1. Locate the shallowest color split: Scan the board for the column containing the fewest color transitions, especially one with only two colors where the top blocks are identical.
2. Transfer exposed matching blocks: Move matching surface tiles onto existing columns of the same color. Always stack them onto the largest available matching pile rather than scattering identical colors across multiple slots.
3. Drain the column entirely: Shift the remaining bottom blocks into matching destinations across the grid. Once the column is empty, leave it open so you have room to maneuver.

Mid-Game Sorting and Unburying Trapped Colors

With an empty column available, shift your focus to peeling away blocking tiles that conceal the pieces you need to finish primary stacks.

• Target nearly complete colors: Identify columns that hide blocks needed to top off your three-stack columns. If a stack requires one or two more tiles of a specific color, prioritize the column where that color sits under a single blocking layer.
• Execute clean exchange cycles: Temporarily park the blocking surface tile into your empty buffer slot, transfer the required color tile onto its target stack, and immediately return or redirect the parked tile.
• Keep the buffer vacant: Never place two distinct mixed tiles into your open space unless the very next move clears one out. Storing unrelated blocks in your buffer eliminates your movement flexibility and leads to deadlocks.

Level 788 Phase Strategy and Pitfalls

Tracking the objective of each phase helps prevent careless moves that ruin an otherwise stable board state.

Endgame Consolidation and Cleanup

The endgame begins once only two or three fragmented colors remain. At this stage, completed columns are fully locked and multiple working lanes should be open.

Before making your final shifts, count the exact number of remaining blocks for each color. Focus on finishing one complete color tube before moving pieces of another. With multiple open slots available, you can temporarily stage intermediate blocks across individual empty columns, construct the target color stack from bottom to top, and collapse the remaining tiles into their matching columns to clear the stage.
