Sand Loop Level 217 Guide: The Cozy Cabin Puzzle

This isn't a speed level. This is a classic "unblock the supply" logic puzzle. Sand Loop Level 217 features a charming pixel art A-Frame Cabin in the woods, complete with a smoking chimney and tall pine trees. The art looks cozy, but the tray layout is hostile. You are dealing with a heavy dependency chain where the colors you need for the left side of the canvas (Green) are locked behind the colors you need for the center (Red/Yellow).

If you try to rush the trees, you will fail. The hook here is patience; you have to build the house before you can plant the forest.

Sand Loop Level 217 Solution: The Cabin Breakdown

The pixel art dictates your rhythm. Let’s strip down the image on the top screen.

• Color Palette Deep Dive: The level uses three primary "paint" colors: Bright Red (roof, chimney, foundation), Sunshine Yellow (walls), and Forest Green (trees). There are also white/neutral cups for the background canvas, likely hidden in those bottom rope bundles.
• The "Danger Zones": The biggest risk is the Red Foundation at the very bottom of the house. It requires a lot of red sand. If you waste your red cups on the roof segments too slowly, you might clog the belt waiting for the foundation to fill.
• Fill Order Prediction: Look at the tray. The Green cups are physically elevated and blocked. This means the game forces you to paint the Red/Yellow house first. Do not fight this. The game wants you to finish the center structure to "unlock" the landscaping on the left.

Tackling the Ice Block Dependency in Sand Loop Level 217

The primary obstacle in Sand Loop Level 217 is the pair of Ice Blocks marked with the number 4.

These blocks are holding the Green Cups hostage. You cannot tap the Green cups. They are physically sitting on top of the ice. To break an Ice Block in Sand Loop, you typically need to clear cups that are adjacent to it. Every time you successfully send a neighboring cup (the Reds and Yellows in the columns next to the ice) to the conveyor, the counter on the ice goes down by one.

This creates a rigid order of operations:

1. Clear Red/Yellow neighbors.
2. Ice counter hits 0 and shatters.
3. Green cups fall to the playable area.

If you ignore the neighbors, the ice never breaks, and the trees never get painted.

Sand Loop Level 217 Step-by-Step Walkthrough

The belt capacity is tight (0/5). You have zero room for error with the Roped Cups at the bottom. Follow this order to keep the slots flowing.

1. Cracking the Ice (The Opening Moves)

Your first priority is the "4" on those Ice Blocks. Look at the top row of the tray. You have Red and Yellow cups immediately next to the Green/Ice towers.

• Tap the Red cups in the inner columns first.
• Tap the Yellow cups on the far corners next.
• Every tap should decrement the number on the ice. Keep your eye on that counter. Do not just tap randomly; tap specifically to lower that number. The conveyor belt will paint the roof and walls of the cabin while you do this.

2. Managing the Roped Pairs

At the bottom of the tray, you’ll see pairs of cups tied together with Ropes. This is a major trap in Sand Loop Level 217.

• The Mechanic: Tapping a roped cup pulls both attached cups instantly. This consumes 2 Slots on your conveyor belt immediately.
• The Risk: If your belt is at 4/5 capacity and you tap a rope, you are dead. The belt will jam or you won't be able to make the move.
• The Fix: Only touch the ropes (White/Orange cups at the bottom) when the belt is completely empty or has at least 3 open slots. Treat them like "heavy" items.

3. Deploying the Green Cups

Once you have cleared enough Red and Yellow cups from the upper/side columns, the Ice Blocks will shatter. The Green Cups will drop down.

• Now is the time to focus on the trees. The conveyor should be relatively clear since you've spent the early game building the house.
• Tap the Green cups in quick succession to get a clean, continuous pour for the large pine trees on the left side of the canvas.
• If you have any remaining Red cups for the foundation, weave them in after the Green burst to ensure the bottom of the picture finishes cleanly without overlaying the trees.
