Quick answer
Keep the solid divider in mind when joining the routes. Connect around its end; trying to erase the dark material will not create a passage. A large red ball hangs beneath a thick overhead black block, with long inner black dividers enclosing a vertical chute and green creatures in side channels.

Step-by-step
Locate the red ball and every green creature before cutting. Keep the starting support until the route below is ready.
Keep the solid divider in mind when joining the routes. Connect around its end; trying to erase the dark material will not create a passage.
Keep the approach aligned with the narrow opening. Trim the sand a little at a time rather than widening both sides immediately.
Guide the ball through the remaining creature pockets. Check the edges of the cleared route before assuming that the board is finished.
Check the full target route after the last movement, including pockets above the final drop. If a creature remains, identify the earliest turn that missed it and change that local approach on the next attempt.
Tips
- Trace the fixed wall to its end before committing to a side. Trying to join two pockets straight through dark material leaves a route that cannot connect.
- Judge the entrance using the character’s current size. A wide chamber behind a small mouth does not make that mouth passable; trim the actual bottleneck first.
- Count the separated pockets rather than following only the lowest creature. The target furthest from the main chute may need a short detour before the final drop.
Common mistakes
- Opening the final outlet before checking higher target pockets can leave a creature above the character with no route back. Inspect the side entrances before making that irreversible drop.
- Removing several supports in one swipe makes the release order unpredictable. When a moving piece occupies the route, wait for it to settle before changing nearby sand.
Frequently asked questions
Which part of the fixed divider should I route around?
A large red ball hangs beneath a thick overhead black block, with long inner black dividers enclosing a vertical chute and green creatures in side channels. The dark barrier determines which pockets can connect directly. Find a usable end and prepare the continuation on that side before release. A cut aimed through the middle of the fixed material cannot substitute for that detour.
Why does the narrow entrance need attention?
The visible opening may be smaller than the character at the moment it arrives. Check the entrance and exit separately, remove a blocking lip locally and preserve enough floor for the character to leave the passage.
How can I avoid leaving a green creature behind?
Count the separated pockets rather than following only the lowest creature. The target furthest from the main chute may need a short detour before the final drop.
