Sand Loop Level 220 Guide: The Potted Lavender Puzzle

Sand Loop Level 220 is a classic "peel the onion" layout disguised as a simple flower painting. The pixel art features a Potted Lavender plant—bright pink pot, chunky green leaves, and delicate purple flower spikes on a cream background.

Unlike speed levels where you smash ice, this is a Mystery Block Logic level. The hook here isn't speed; it's the gray cups marked with question marks (?) occupying the center of the tray. You can't see what color you're loading until the cup above it is cleared. This forces you to play reactively. If you spam tap the top row, you’ll flood your 5-slot conveyor with colors you don't need yet, deadlocking the board instantly.

Sand Loop Level 220 Solution: The Pixel Art Breakdown

The canvas for the Potted Lavender is deceptive. The big blocks of color are easy, but the shading will trip you up.

The Palette:
- Cream/Beige: This is your background. You need a ton of it.
- Neon Pink: The main body of the flower pot.
- Kelly Green: The leaves at the base of the plant.
- Lavender (Light Purple): The main flower spikes.
- Dark Violet: Used sparingly for shadows on the pot and depth in the flowers.
The Danger Zones: Watch out for the Dark Violet pixels. There are only a few of them—some at the bottom of the pink pot for shading, and a few scattered inside the flower spikes. The game loves to give you a Dark Violet cup when you’re expecting a Light Purple one. If you aren't paying attention, you'll ruin the pot's shading or put a dark spot in the middle of a light flower petal.
Fill Order Prediction: Usually, you paint background -> midground -> foreground. However, Sand Loop Level 220 flips this. Because the Green and Cream cups are on the very top row of the supply tray, you will be forced to paint the Green Leaves and top sections of the Cream Background simultaneously right at the start.

Tackling the Mystery Blocks (?) in Sand Loop Level 220

The defining obstacle of Sand Loop Level 220 is the Mystery Block (?) grid in the center columns.

These gray buckets are annoying. They act as "Fog of War." You cannot plan your third or fourth move because you don't know what color sits in column 3, row 2. It could be a critical Pink for the pot, or a useless Cream that will clog your belt.

The strategy here is Column Isolation. Don't try to clear the board row by row horizontally. Instead, focus on drilling down specific columns to reveal the mystery blocks one by one. If you clear the top of Column 3 and reveal a Pink cup underneath, you now have new information. If you clear the whole top row at once, you reveal 5 mystery blocks simultaneously, and if they are all colors you can't pour yet (like Purple for the very top of the flower), you have 5 dead slots on your belt. Game over.

Sand Loop Level 220 Step-by-Step Walkthrough

This level punishes "continuous pouring" enthusiasts. You need short, controlled bursts.

1. The Green & Cream Opener

Look at the top row of your tray. It alternates: Cream, Green, Cream, Green. This matches the pixel art perfectly, where the leaves meet the background.

Tap the Green cups first. The leaves are lower on the canvas than the full background height. Get the green base established.
Once the green starts pouring, tap the Cream cups immediately adjacent to them.
Stop tapping once the top row is clear. Do not touch the side columns (the visible pinks) yet. Let the belt clear out.

2. Cracking the Side Columns for the Pot

Once the initial Green/Cream wave is done, you’ll see the pixel art needs a massive amount of Neon Pink for the pot.

The center columns are likely full of mystery blocks. Ignore them for a second.
Look at the far left and far right columns. You can see Neon Pink cups sitting in the second row (under the initial Cream cups).
Drill down these side columns. You need to free up those Pink cups to build the base of the pot. If you ignore the sides, you'll be stuck with a half-painted plant and no way to paint the container it sits in.

3. The "Mystery" Mid-Game

Now you have to deal with the gray ? blocks in the center.

Tap one mystery cup. Just one. Watch it reveal itself.
If it’s Dark Violet, check the canvas. Is the pot shadow ready to be painted? If yes, send it. If no, leave it in the slot and tap a Pink cup to clear the dependency.
This is where the 5-slot limit kills runs. You need to keep 2 slots empty at all times during this phase so you can "shuffle" the order. If you fill all 5 slots with revealed mystery cups that don't match the current canvas layer, you are soft-locked.

4. The Lavender Finale

The Light Purple (Lavender) cups are usually buried deep in the tray, often under the Green or Mystery blocks. This makes sense—the flowers are the "top" layer of the art physically.

Do not try to force the purple flowers early. Focus entirely on the Pink Pot and Green Leaves.
Once the bottom half of the image is solid, the game usually floods the tray with the remaining Purple and Cream cups to finish the spikes and the top corners of the background.
Save the Cream cups in the bottom-most row for last. They are usually needed to fill the final top-left and top-right corners of the sky.
