CubeAway Level 11 Guide: How to Clear Crossing Faces

To solve Level 11 in CubeAway, strip away outward-pointing perimeter arrows first instead of trying to solve a single face. Level 11 distributes crossing arrow paths evenly across all sides, meaning the center pieces of every face are blocked by perpendicular neighbors. Removing unblocked corner and ridge pieces creates open exit lanes, allowing you to untangle the interior core without collisions.

Step 1: Clear Outward-Facing Perimeter Blocks

Do not tap center blocks when the level starts. Because every face features crossing trajectories, center arrows will collide with adjacent perimeter pieces. Begin by identifying arrows along the exterior edges that point into empty space.

Rotate the cube diagonally to check the following targets:

• Outer corner cubes: Locate corner arrows that point directly away from the center mass. These have zero flight-path obstructions and can be cleared immediately.
• Ridge blocks: Examine the border pieces between two faces. If a block points parallel to an empty neighboring face, its launch vector is unobstructed.
• Blocked trajectories: Leave any block alone if its arrow points directly toward an adjacent cube, even if that adjacent cube is near an outer edge.

Clearing these peripheral blocks loosens the structural grid and creates clear exit channels for the blocks trapped beneath them.

Step 2: Establish a Rotation Loop

Level 11 does not feature a single "easy" side. Clearing an arrow on one face often unblocks a flight path for an arrow located on the opposite side of the cube. To avoid hitting deadlocks, check the cube after every successful tap using a disciplined rotation sequence.

Step 3: Untangle the Interior Core

Once the exterior shell is stripped, the remaining inner arrows sit on intersecting axes facing one another. Do not guess which arrow to tap next.

Look down the open corridors created during the perimeter phase. If two core arrows face each other along the same axis, trace their directions to see which block has an open path behind it. Tap the piece that has an empty lane extending past the puzzle boundary. Releasing that first core block removes the barrier holding the opposing arrow in place, clearing the rest of the cluster in rapid sequence.
