6-and-8 top / movable 25-count board
Color Block Jam Level 218 Solution
This solution matches the Level 218 board that opens with counters 6 and 8 above the top row, a movable 25-count block near the center, and a 2:35 timer. Move the 25-count block out early, keep the center open, and alternate the wide L pieces with the smaller colored blocks so both top counters can continue to fall. The board empties at about 2:42 and the level-complete panel appears at about 2:43.

Key checkpoints
Use these moments to confirm that your board still matches before continuing.
| Time | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| 0:04 | The walkthrough opens on Level 218 with a 2:35 timer, counters 6 and 8 above the top row, and a movable 25-count block near the center. |
| 0:16 | The 25-count block falls through the twenties during the opening moves and has cleared from the board by about 0:16, when the top counters read 5 and 7. |
| 0:39 | The counters reach 4 and 6 at about 0:39 after the first long rearrangement through the center. |
| 1:12 | The top counters reach 3 and 5 at about 1:12 and then 2 and 4 at about 1:30 as the upper lanes are cleared. |
| 1:49 | A green piece clears through the bottom gate at about 1:48 and a purple piece follows through the bottom edge at about 1:49. |
| 2:43 | The last cyan L clears at about 2:42 and the level-complete panel appears at about 2:43. |
Slide the black 25-count block right across the lower center, move the small cyan square out of its path, and keep the long orange block against the left wall.
Checkpoint: The count block has started falling and the large cyan L still occupies the lower-right corner.
Watch at 0:08Continue moving the black block through the open center while shifting the red and green vertical pieces apart, then remove it once its count reaches zero.
Checkpoint: The black block is gone by about 0:16 and the top counters read 5 and 7.
Watch at 0:16Raise the large cyan L from the lower-right corner, slide the small orange square left of it, and move the long yellow block down the center-left column.
Checkpoint: The lower-right cells are open and the cyan L can cross the middle without hitting the edge pieces.
Watch at 0:24Move the small orange square through the center, shift the magenta horizontal block to the middle-right, and keep the red and green vertical pair together below it.
Checkpoint: The center contains only small movable pieces and the long orange and yellow blocks remain clear of the top row.
Watch at 0:32Raise the long yellow block, carry the green horizontal block toward the top row, and shift the cyan and magenta bars into the open center.
Checkpoint: The top counters read 4 and 6 at about 0:39.
Watch at 0:40Place the cyan and magenta horizontal bars across the upper middle, keep the yellow vertical block on the right, and move the red-green pair into the lower center.
Checkpoint: The upper rows are organized into short bars with an open column down the middle.
Watch at 0:48Shift the blue L from the upper-left cluster into the open center-left cells, then slide the long orange block down beside it.
Checkpoint: The blue L can turn through the middle and the top-left gate row remains open.
Watch at 0:56Carry the blue L across the center, move the small cyan square and magenta bar around its arms, and keep the yellow vertical block at upper right.
Checkpoint: The blue L occupies the central area without sealing either side lane.
Watch at 1:04Raise the yellow block through the upper-right lane, slide the blue L upward, and move the red-green pair across the newly opened center.
Checkpoint: The top counters read 3 and 5 at about 1:12.
Watch at 1:12Move the long orange block up the open center column while sliding the magenta bar and blue L away from the top orange gate.
Checkpoint: The orange block is aligned below its top gate and the red-green pair sits in the lower center.
Watch at 1:20Push the staged orange block through the orange top gate, then move the red and green pieces upward into the space it leaves.
Checkpoint: Orange particles appear above the board and the counters are ready to drop to 2 and 4.
Watch at 1:28Place the red and green vertical pieces beneath the top row, move the cyan square and magenta L into the lower half, and keep the blue L on the right.
Checkpoint: The top counters read 2 and 4 and a wide open area has formed in the center-left.
Watch at 1:36Move the small green and cyan blocks together across the center, then separate them so the cyan square can reach the upper gates and green can move downward.
Checkpoint: The small pair is no longer trapped between the red-green column and the large cyan L.
Watch at 1:44Drop the green piece through the green bottom gate, then align the magenta piece with the purple bottom gate and send it down.
Checkpoint: Green and purple particles appear beneath the board at about 1:48 and 1:49.
Watch at 1:52Move the blue L upward on the right, draw the large cyan L inward from the lower-right edge, and shift the remaining magenta bars toward the middle.
Checkpoint: The lower-left half is open and the remaining top counters can continue to fall.
Watch at 2:00Raise the remaining orange vertical block through the center and send it through the orange top gate.
Checkpoint: Orange particles appear above the board at about 2:09 and the top counters are reduced again.
Watch at 2:09Move the magenta L through the center-left opening, slide the blue L down and right, and keep the large cyan L along the lower-right edge.
Checkpoint: The three large L-shaped pieces are separated and each has access to a matching gate route.
Watch at 2:16Send the remaining small green, cyan, purple, and red pieces through their matching gates, moving the L-shaped pieces aside after each exit.
Checkpoint: Only the blue L and large cyan L remain after the closing chain begins.
Watch at 2:28Carry the blue L across the open board and through the matching blue side route, leaving the large cyan L alone.
Checkpoint: The blue piece is gone and the cyan L has a clear route toward the cyan top gate.
Watch at 2:38Raise the last cyan L through the open board and send it through the cyan top gate.
Checkpoint: The board empties at about 2:42 and the level-complete panel appears at about 2:43.

Common mistakes
- Following this route without confirming the 6 and 8 top counters, the movable 25-count block, and the 2:35 timer; a different board needs a different solution.
- Leaving the 25-count block in the center after the opening, which prevents the large L pieces from crossing the board later.
- Packing the lower gates before the green and purple exits at about 1:48 and 1:49, which interrupts the closing chain.
