Sand Shape Level 136 Solution

Level Overview

Sand Shape Level 136 challenges players to divide a 4x6 grid into six distinct regions, each with an area of exactly 4 squares. Each region must contain one of the six triangle markers present on the board. The level operates under a 3-minute time limit.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

1. 1. Begin by drawing a line to form a 2x2 square region in the top-left corner of the grid. This region will contain the top-left triangle and turn red.
2. 2. Next, draw lines to create another 2x2 square region in the top-right corner of the grid. This region will contain the top-right triangle and turn orange.
3. 3. Below the newly formed top-right orange region, draw lines to create an L-shaped region of 4 squares. This L-shape should encompass the triangle located in the upper-middle section of the grid and will turn yellow.
4. 4. Shift your attention to the left side. Below the initial top-left red region, draw lines to form another L-shaped region of 4 squares. This region will contain the central-left triangle and will be colored green.
5. 5. Continue down the left side. Below the green L-shaped region, draw lines to create a third L-shaped region, also with 4 squares. This region will include the bottom-left triangle and connect towards the middle-right of the board, becoming light blue.
6. 6. The remaining empty space on the right side of the grid will automatically form the sixth and final 4-square region. This last region will encompass the bottom-right triangle and turn dark blue or purple, completing Level 136.

Pro Tips

• Always count the squares as you draw to ensure each region is exactly 4 units in area, as this is the primary objective.
• Mentally (or physically, if possible) outline the path for each 4-square region before committing to a draw, ensuring it includes a triangle.
• Prioritize clearing the triangles that allow for simple 2x2 square formations first, as these are easier to place.
• When creating L-shaped regions, visualize a 2x2 square with one corner removed, then shifted to fit the available space while maintaining the 4-unit area.
• Keep an eye on the 3-minute timer. While this level is not extremely fast-paced, efficient drawing helps.

Common Mistakes

• Creating regions that are not exactly 4 squares in area, which will prevent level completion.
• Failing to include a triangle marker within each of your formed 4-square regions.
• Drawing lines that trap a triangle in an area smaller or larger than 4 squares, or in a space that cannot be part of a 4-square region.
• Overlapping regions or leaving small, unfillable gaps on the board.
