Wood Blocks Jam

The two-block lesson

The opening board placed a tall orange block along the left side and a tall mint block in the lower-right area. A mint exit sat on the top edge while an orange exit sat along the bottom. With only two pieces visible, the puzzle introduced destination reading before crowding the board.

A tutorial hand appeared over the play area. We clicked it to dismiss the prompt and inspect the unobstructed layout. The screenshot is the resulting live state.

Why opposite exits matter

Each block’s matching gate lies in a different direction. That prevents the solution from being reduced to “drag everything upward” or “clear the nearest edge.” Before moving, trace whether the block can travel along its current row or column and whether the other piece occupies a future lane.

The board showed no countdown, so there was room to plan. Three booster buttons sat beneath the puzzle, but we did not use them or identify their exact effects through play.

A clean opening method

Start with the piece whose route requires the least turning or temporary repositioning. If one block already aligns with its exit, clearing it may open the central space for the other. Avoid parking a piece in the only shared lane just because that move is available.

What the screenshot proves

It proves the Level 1 arrangement, the orange and mint pieces, their opposite exits, the absence of a visible timer and the presence of three booster controls. It does not prove a level count, booster economy, or later obstacle set.

Our earlier source metadata described a much larger progression, but those claims are not repeated as hands-on findings. This note stays with the two-block board we actually reached and the route-order question it presents.
