Quick answer
Round the bottom of the turn instead of leaving a sharp corner. A smooth floor helps the ball follow the bend. A single long curved hollow through a broad sand block contains a large red ball at the bottom and a green creature higher in the passage.

Step-by-step
Locate the red ball and every green creature before cutting. Keep the starting support until the route below is ready.
Round the bottom of the turn instead of leaving a sharp corner. A smooth floor helps the ball follow the bend.
Guide the ball through the remaining creature pockets. Check the edges of the cleared route before assuming that the board is finished.
Keep the approach aligned with the narrow opening. Trim the sand a little at a time rather than widening both sides immediately.
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
- Keep a shallow outer wall around the bend. It gives the red character a surface to follow instead of allowing a free fall past the pocket.
- 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.
- 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.
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
How do I keep the character in the curved passage?
A single long curved hollow through a broad sand block contains a large red ball at the bottom and a green creature higher in the passage. An abrupt corner can redirect the character away from the next pocket. Keep the bend connected to its receiving floor; when the first attempt misses, adjust the approach angle rather than deepening the entire chamber.
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.
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.
