Level 276 Board Overview: Upward Arrow Box Trap

The verified walkthrough identifies the opening board as Upward Arrow Box Trap. The first confirmed moves are: Start by collecting the loose Green marbles at the Top Tray’s far left rim and dropping them to empty the two left-hand lower boxes. Then: Gather the scattered Dark Red marbles from the center span and the right rim to knock out the two right-hand front boxes. The next safe order is recorded below so the belt does not fill with bait.
The Trap in Marble Sort Level 276
- Opening bait: Refuse to touch the central Arrow Boxes, because triggering either the pink or cyan arrows at this stage would pile dead marbles onto your belt.
- Board order: As the lower area shifts, feed the exposed columns by clearing the solid Purple, Brown, and White boxes lined up in front of the tray.
- Belt discipline: Use only the first verified clears here; do not spend belt space on a color without an active receiver.
Marble Sort Level 276 Step-by-Step Walkthrough
Opening: follow the safe first clears

- Start by collecting the loose Green marbles at the Top Tray’s far left rim and dropping them to empty the two left-hand lower boxes.
- Gather the scattered Dark Red marbles from the center span and the right rim to knock out the two right-hand front boxes.
- Refuse to touch the central Arrow Boxes, because triggering either the pink or cyan arrows at this stage would pile dead marbles onto your belt.
Midgame: open the next receiver path
After the opening clears, let the next exposed groups move only when their receiver is ready.
- As the lower area shifts, feed the exposed columns by clearing the solid Purple, Brown, and White boxes lined up in front of the tray.
- Tackle the Purple side of the linked Orange-Purple box by pushing the tray’s solid Purple marble into it, letting the joined boxes fall together.
- With the core open, trigger the Purple and Dark Red arrows so they shoot upward into the grey Hidden Box roof and spill out the trapped colors.
Cleanup: finish the remaining sequence
The final phase follows the remaining source order. Pause whenever the belt starts to fill.
- Chase the fresh Yellow and Green marbles first to satisfy the Connected Boxes lingering on the right, and avoid sending Light Blue or Pink down unless their box sits in the front row.
- Move top to bottom through the uncovered question-mark zone, clearing one color at a time and mopping up the leftover White and Blue boxes to clear the board.
