Sand Loop Level 336 Guide: The Shooting Star Puzzle

This level features a vibrant Pixel Art Shooting Star trailing a rainbow across the sky. While it looks cute, Sand Loop 336 is a "bunker buster" level. You are confronted with a supply tray that is almost entirely frozen solid with high-numbered Ice Blocks. Speed isn't your friend here; strict order of operations is. If you pull the wrong color too early, you will deadlock your 5-slot capacity instantly.

Sand Loop Level 336 Solution: The Rainbow Star

The artwork is a yellow/orange star with a three-stripe trail on a purple background.

Green: The top stripe of the rainbow tail.
Pink: The middle stripe of the tail.
Cyan: The bottom stripe of the tail.
Orange/Yellow: The star body.
Purple: The massive background fill.

The Danger Zones: The biggest risk in Sand Loop 336 is the Purple Background. Because the background is so large, the game will tempt you to start pouring Purple early to "get it out of the way." Do not do this. The Purple cups are buried at the bottom of the tray for a reason. If you flood the belt with Purple before the Star's definition lines are drawn, you will waste sand and clog your output. Stick to the rainbow stripes first.

Tackling the High-Value Ice Blocks in Sand Loop 336

The screenshot shows four massive obstacles: two Ice 14 blocks on the corners, an Ice 15, and an Ice 20 in the center columns.

What they do: These blocks completely freeze the cups underneath them. You cannot access the Cyan or Orange cups on the sides until these blocks are shattered.
How to break them: You cannot break these by tapping them directly. In Sand Loop 336, these blocks degrade as you clear the accessible cups adjacent to them.
The Choke Point: You only have two active columns to start with (the ones with the Green cups). This forces a linear playstyle. You cannot multitask. You must clear the center vertical lines to chip away at the frozen sides.

Sand Loop Level 336 Step-by-Step Walkthrough

1. The Green Start (The Only Option)

Your supply tray is a frozen fortress, but there is a crack in the armor. Look at the top of the 2nd and 4th columns.

Two Green Cups are the only unlocked items.
Drag these onto the belt immediately.
This initiates the Green Stripe of the shooting star's tail. Do not look at anything else until these Green cups are moving.

2. Drilling Down the Middle (Pink Phase)

Once the Green cups are cleared from the tray, they reveal the Pink Cups directly underneath them.

The Pink Cups correspond to the middle stripe of the rainbow.
Load them onto the conveyor.
Crucial Tip: Watch your slot capacity (0/5). Do not let the belt get full. Since you are only working with two columns, you have rhythm. Tap, wait for the pour, tap again.
Clearing these Pink cups is the trigger that damages the adjacent Ice Blocks. You are essentially "mining" downwards to unlock the rest of the board.

3. Cracking the Ice 14s and Ice 15/20

As you exhaust the Green and Pink supplies in the center, the Ice 14 blocks on the far left and right will finally shatter or unlock the cups beneath them.

This exposes the Cyan Cups (bottom stripe) and Orange Cups (Star body).
Prioritize the Cyan Cups first if possible. Finishing the rainbow tail (Green, Pink, Cyan) gives you a clean visual guide for where the Star begins.
If you see Question Mark (?) Cups or turning arrows, use them only if you have a free slot. These are wildcards, but in this level, they usually convert to the dominant color needed next (often Purple or Orange).

4. The Star and The Background

Once the side columns are open, the board opens up.

Now you can pull the Orange Cups to fill the Star.
Be careful with the Purple Cups at the very bottom.
Only start aggressive Purple pouring once the Star's outline is clearly safe. If you pour Purple while the Star is half-empty, you risk "contaminating" the edges where the Orange meets the Purple.
Final Check: Ensure the little face details on the star (the eyes) don't get washed out. Slow down your pouring speed when the Star is 90% full to ensure the pixels land correctly.
