Sand Loop Level 279 Solution

Step 1: Open the first door.

From the starting point, push the single stone block onto the pressure plate directly in front of the door.

The first door opens at 00:08.

Step 2: Cross a gap and open the next door.

Push the first block off the ledge into the lower area. Drop down, retrieve the block, and push it onto the adjacent block to create a bridge. Push the retrieved block across the new bridge onto the pressure plate.

The second door opens at 00:19.

Step 3: Navigate the laser grid to open the next door.

Push the first two blocks encountered directly into the paths of the lasers. For the subsequent lasers, climb to higher platforms, push blocks down to the ground, then push these blocks into the laser paths. Finally, push the last block onto the pressure plate.

All lasers are blocked, and the third door opens at 00:46.

Step 4: Solve the first sand loop puzzle.

Push the block located near the sand current into the flow. The sand will carry the block to the pressure plate.

The fourth door opens at 00:54.

Step 5: Solve the second sand loop puzzle.

Push the block into the sand current from its initial position, allowing the flow to guide it around a corner and onto the pressure plate.

The fifth door opens at 01:00.

Step 6: Solve the complex sand loop puzzle with multiple blocks.

Bypass the first block that gets stuck. Push the second available block into the sand current. This block will navigate around obstacles and land successfully on the pressure plate.

The sixth door opens at 01:11.

Step 7: Cross the lava using a moving platform.

Push the block onto the moving platform. Step onto the platform yourself. As the platform moves, the block will drop onto the pressure plate below.

The seventh door opens at 01:19.

Step 8: Navigate the combined sand and lava puzzle.

Push a block off a ledge into the sand current. While the block is flowing, use another block to jump across a gap. Intercept the flowing block on the other side, push it onto a moving platform, and allow it to drop onto the pressure plate.

The eighth door opens at 01:35.

Step 9: Solve the final sand loop puzzle.

Push the second available block into the sand current in the final area. This block will flow around the corner and land on the last pressure plate.

The final door opens at 01:48.

Step 10: Exit the level.

Walk through the final open door.

The 'Level Complete' screen appears at 01:51.

Q: How do I get past the laser grid sections?

A: You need to push the large stone blocks into the path of the lasers. The blocks will block the laser beams, allowing you to pass safely.

Q: What is the key to solving the sand-flow puzzles?

A: The key is to observe the direction and path of the sand currents. You need to strategically push blocks into the sand so they are carried to the correct pressure plates or destinations.

Q: What if I get a block stuck in a sand current?

A: If a block gets stuck, sometimes another block is available to use. Re-evaluate the puzzle to see if there's an alternative path or block, or if the sand flow mechanism will eventually move it.
