Marble Sort Level 47 Walkthrough & Solution
Level 47 Board Overview: The U-Shaped Lock and Purple Bait

Level 47 crams you into a tight little arena. The Top Tray is ringed by a U-shaped wall of gray hidden blocks, the dead center holds a blank wooden plate, and two blue Tunnels — each storing 3 marbles — sit right in the middle of everything.
The colors that matter are Black, Green, Brown, and a huge wall of Purple waiting at the very end. The front row of the tray shows four textured blocks: Purple, Black, Brown, and Green. Just behind them sit a Pink and a Light Blue on the left, a lone White on the right, and an inner ring of Red, Purple, Yellow, Green, Yellow, and Black sealed inside the hidden wall.
The bottom receivers stack four deep. Row one wants Black, Black, Pink, and Green. Row two asks for Green, Brown, Yellow and hides a Mystery Box in the third column. Row three needs Light Blue, White, Yellow with another Mystery Box in the fourth column. The floor of the pile: three solid Purple Boxes and a final Green.
The Trap in Marble Sort Level 47
Every tile on this board is an invitation to jam yourself. The key reads:
- Front-left Purple block: pure poison. It cannot clear until the fourth row of Boxes surfaces, so tapping it early parks it on the belt for half the level, eating the space you need for everything else.
- Front-row Black, Brown, Green: your only safe opening taps, and each feeds a live Box.
- Left side behind the front: the Pink and Light Blue are reachable but only matter once their Boxes cycle in.
- Inner ring: Red, Purple, Yellow, Green, Yellow, Black trapped behind the hidden wall — this is your mid-game supply once the Tunnels open.
- Twin center Tunnels: each holds 3 marbles and only starts paying out once you clear the space around them. You have to work the outer edges first.
The Conveyor Belt has exactly enough room to let you make one fatal mistake. Respect the order and the level is calm; freestyle it and you are done before the first Tunnel opens.
Marble Sort Level 47 Step-by-Step Walkthrough
Your first moves must be exact, and they never touch that Purple block.
Opening: the first wave of Boxes

- Tap the textured Black block in the front row into the first Black Box.
- Tap the textured Green block at the far right of the front row into the Green Box.
- Grab the Pink block sitting just behind the front row on the left for the Pink Box.
- Pull the Black marble from the top-right corner of the inner ring to clear the second Black Box. Wave one is done — and the front Purple block is still untouched, exactly as planned.
Mid-game: Tunnels and the first Mystery Box
The second row of receivers rises: Green, Brown, Yellow, plus the first Mystery Box in column three.
- Tap the textured Brown block from the front row straight into the Brown Box.
- Pull the Green marble from the top center of the tray for the new Green Box.
- Pull a Yellow from the top center as well.
- The first Mystery Box now flips and shows its color. Answer it immediately — reach into the gray outer ring, starting from the top right, to find the match.
- As you keep clearing the middle, both Tunnels count down and drop their 3-marble payloads. Route them into the third row of receivers asking for Light Blue, White, and Yellow.
- Tap the Light Blue on the left edge and the White on the right edge to clear their Boxes.
- Reveal the second Mystery Box on the bottom right and match whatever it demands from the newly uncovered hidden blocks.
Cleanup: the Purple wall
You have finally dug down to the floor: three Purple Boxes and one last Green. The belt should be nearly empty.
- Now — and only now — tap that textured Purple block in the front left.
- Pull the remaining Purple from the upper-left of the inner ring.
- Match the rest of the revealed hidden blocks into the Purple Boxes.
- Drop the final Green marbles to clear the last receiver and finish the level.

Level 47 Tips Recap
- The front-left Purple is bait with a timer on it — it only becomes legal in the endgame.
- Work the outer edges first: the twin Tunnels only start paying out once the center clears.
- Answer each Mystery Box the instant it flips, before you keep digging, so its demand never clashes with a crowded belt.
