Quick answer
Find the complete bright line and both of its endpoints before opening the crossing. Compare the linked recording for the release order, keeping the red character away while the line crosses its intended route. Two red balls stand on the top black crossbar of a tall narrow frame containing a column of green creatures, with a glowing beam above and rounded side channels below.

Step-by-step
Locate the red ball and every green creature before cutting. Keep the starting support until the route below is ready.
Find the complete bright line and both of its endpoints before opening the crossing. Compare the linked recording for the release order, keeping the red character away while the line crosses its intended route.
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.
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
- Check the bright line before each release, including the return path. A route that is safe in one visible frame can change when surrounding objects move.
- 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.
- 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
What should I check at the bright-line crossing?
Two red balls stand on the top black crossbar of a tall narrow frame containing a column of green creatures, with a glowing beam above and rounded side channels below. The crossing depends on the visible line and the positions of nearby objects. Compare the moment just before release in the recording. If your board differs, hold the starting support instead of assuming the same crossing is safe.
Which part of the fixed divider should I route around?
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.
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.
