Sand Loop Level 159 Guide: The Chicken & Eggs Puzzle

Sand Loop Level 159 presents you with a classic farm scene: a golden-brown Hen sitting on three white eggs. While the pixel art looks cozy, the puzzle mechanics are anything but. This is strictly a Logic Level. There are no ice blocks to smash or keys to turn, which sounds easier, but it actually means the difficulty is purely in stack management. You have a crowded tray and a strict 5-slot limit on the conveyor belt. The hook here is the deceptive similarity between the "Golden/Orange" cups for the chicken's body and the bright "Yellow" cups for the straw at the bottom. Mix those up, and you restart.

Sand Loop Level 159 Solution: The Hen on the Nest

Before you tap a single cup, look at the canvas. The fill order isn't just "bottom to top" here; it's about clearing the easiest clusters first to free up tray space.

Color Palette Deep Dive:
- Golden/Orange: The dominant color for the chicken's body.
- Deep Red/Maroon: Used for the comb (head), wattle, and tail feathers.
- White: Specifically for the three eggs.
- Bright Yellow: The straw/nest at the very bottom.
- Cyan (Light Blue): The sky background.
The "Danger Zones":
- The Beak & Eye: The chicken's face has tiny details (a single yellow pixel for the beak, a dark pixel for the eye). Don't accidentally flood this area with body color too early.
- The Straw vs. Body: The bright yellow straw is at the bottom, but the golden body starts immediately above it. If you send Gold cups when the nozzle is over the Yellow zone, you ruin the base.
Fill Order Prediction:
- Phase 1: Straw (Yellow) and Eggs (White). These are the anchors at the bottom.
- Phase 2: Body (Gold) and Tail/Comb (Red).
- Phase 3: Sky (Cyan). Save the blue cups for last; they are just filler for the top half.

Tackling the Central Deadlock in Sand Loop Level 159

The specific obstacle in Sand Loop Level 159 is the Central Column Blocker.

Look at your supply tray. You have a central column directly under the conveyor feed that contains two Yellow cups sitting on top of two Cyan cups and some Reds. However, this central column is flanked by Orange and White cups that are easier to reach.

The trap is that the Yellow cups needed for the bottom "Straw" layer are buried or blocked by the initial Gold cups at the very top of the feed (the two Gold cups sitting right at the conveyor entrance). You cannot reach the White eggs or the Yellow straw effectively until you clear those top two Gold cups. But you can't pour Gold yet because the bottom layer needs Yellow/White first!

This forces you to pull the Gold cups onto the conveyor just to hold them, essentially wasting conveyor slots while you dig for the correct bottom-layer colors.

Sand Loop Level 159 Step-by-Step Walkthrough

You need to play a game of "Parking Lot" with the conveyor belt. You will pull cups up just to get them out of the way.

1. Unblocking the Bottom Layer

Your canvas needs Yellow (straw) and White (eggs) at the very bottom. But your tray is topped with two Gold cups.

Tap the two top Gold cups immediately. Do not let them pour yet if the nozzle is over a white/yellow section. Let them ride the belt to the far right if necessary, or let them pour only if the sensor is highlighting the chicken's body area (which is higher up).
Crucial Move: If the game allows, try to hold these Gold cups on the belt without pouring them, or pour them quickly into the body section if the stream allows it. You mostly just need them out of the feed slot so you can access the White and Yellow cups underneath.

2. The Egg and Straw Phase

Once the top Gold cups are moved:

Target the White cups. There are clusters of White cups on the left and right flanks. Send these up now. The three eggs are large targets and easy to hit.
Target the Yellow cups. There are two bright Yellow cups in the center column and some at the bottom. Send them up interspersed with the Whites.
Rhythm Tip: Watch the nozzle. When it's over the far left or far right bottom corners, you need Yellow. When it's over the center-bottom bumps, you need White. Alternate taps: White -> White -> Yellow -> White.

3. Building the Body (Gold & Red)

Now that the bottom is solid:

Unleash the Orange/Gold cups. You likely have a stockpile of these on the left and right sides of the tray. Rapid-fire these to fill the bulk of the chicken.
Intersperse the Red cups. As the body fills, the nozzle will start hitting the tail area (right side) and the head (top left). You need to weave the Deep Red cups into the stream of Gold.
Warning: Do not send all Reds at once. The tail is checkered. Send Gold -> Red -> Gold -> Red to handle the detailed feather pattern.

4. The Sky Finish (Cyan)

You should be left with a bunch of Cyan cups at the very bottom of your supply tray (specifically the bottom of the center and side columns).

Once the chicken is recognizable, the nozzle will move to the background.
Dump every remaining Cyan cup onto the belt.
Since the background is a solid block of color, you don't need to time these. Just flood the belt to finish the level.
