Marble Sort Level 517 is a tricky puzzle that looks easy but hides a wall of Mystery Boxes behind a tempting front row. The key to victory is to focus on clearing Green first to unlock the left side, while deliberately avoiding the Yellow, Purple, and extra Light Blue boxes that are pure bait.
The board is split: the Top Tray has a front line of Light Blue, Blue, Red, Green, Yellow, Light Blue, and Purple, with three rows of Mystery Boxes behind them. Two yellow bars lock the upper half—the left bar tied to a Green ring, the right to an Orange ring. On the sides are blue and red Gift Boxes with a '3' timer. The bottom Boxes demand, from left to right: Orange, Red, Blue, Green.
Marble Sort Level 517 Walkthrough
Your immediate task is to match the bottom demands. Start by clearing the Red, Blue, and Green from the front row into their matching bottom slots. The leftmost Light Blue is a decoy—do not touch it. The Yellow and Purple are also traps. You must find an Orange to fill the bottom-left, but it's hidden behind the Mystery Boxes.
The critical imbalance: you have easy access to Red, Blue, and Green, but Orange is locked away. If you start dumping random colors to find it, your belt will jam. Instead, deliberately drop the leftmost Light Blue to expose a Mystery Box, and carefully tap it hoping for Orange. If you get a wrong color, park it on the belt and try the next one, but you have limited space, so you must ignore the bait colors to save room.
How to Beat Marble Sort Level 517 — Step-by-Step
Phase one: Secure the bottom row
- Tap the Blue box from the front row and drop it into the Blue slot on the bottom.
- Next, tap the Red box and guide it to the Red slot.
- Then tap the Green box and release it into the Green slot, which also triggers the left lock to open.
- Now, tap the leftmost Light Blue box to send it to the belt, exposing the first Mystery Box.
- Tap that Mystery Box. If it's Orange, drop it into the bottom-left slot. If not, let it sit on the belt and tap the next Mystery Box behind it, repeating until you find Orange.
Phase two: Pop the Gift Boxes and break the right lock
- Once the entire bottom row (Orange, Red, Blue, Green) is cleared, the bottom row shifts, and new demands appear, including Light Blue and Blue.
- Because you cleared the edges, the side Gift Boxes burst open, dumping new boxes onto the board.
- Search the newly exposed boxes or dig into right-side Mystery Boxes to find an Orange box.
- When you have Orange and a bottom slot asks for it, drop it immediately to shatter the right yellow bar.
- Now, flush any Light Blue or leftover boxes off your belt if the bottom demands them—never hold a color that a bottom slot is asking for.
Phase three: Clear the back row methodically
- With both locks broken, the top back row is exposed: White, Orange, Brown, Pink, and Yellow.
- Do not drop these randomly. Only release Pink and Yellow when the bottom slots explicitly request them, as the bottom stacks have deep Orange and Green needs near the end.
- Keep White and Brown in the Top Tray until their matching slots appear.
- Use your belt strictly for temporary storage, and you'll finish with ease.
Tips & tricks
- Always clear the front-row Blue, Red, and Green first—they are safe and unlock the left lock via Green.
- Never send Yellow, Purple, or the extra Light Blue to the belt early; they'll clog it and block your search for Orange.
- When fishing for Orange, tap Mystery Boxes one at a time and park wrong colors on the belt only if you have room; otherwise, wait for a bottom slot to accept them.
- After the first row clears, the Gift Boxes will pop—use their contents to find Orange for the right lock.
- Keep the top back row (White, Brown, etc.) untouched until the bottom demands them.
Common mistakes
- Dropping the Yellow or Purple bait early, which fills the belt and leaves no room for the Mystery Box pulls.
- Failing to prioritize Green, which stalls the left lock and blocks access to needed Mystery Boxes.
- Holding onto a color that the bottom is asking for, causing a delay and potential belt jam.
- Randomly clearing the back row without checking bottom demands, leading to mismatched colors and a stuck board.
