The sample covers 45.7% of a 20x28 lattice: 9 colours, 2 empty rows and 53 separate colour groups.

  • red 11.9% of the sample

    Spread across the sampled board rather than parked in one corner.

  • orange 11.9% of the sample

    Spread across the sampled board rather than parked in one corner.

  • blue 10.9% of the sample

    Spread across the sampled board rather than parked in one corner.

  • green 8.3% of the sample

    Spread across the sampled board rather than parked in one corner.

  • pale blue 5.2% of the sample

    Concentrated in the central half of the sample, so these pieces have to cross the busiest lanes.

  • pink 3.8% of the sample

    Spread across the sampled board rather than parked in one corner.

  • cyan 3.6% of the sample

    Concentrated in the central half of the sample, so these pieces have to cross the busiest lanes.

  • purple 2.6% of the sample

    Spread across the sampled board rather than parked in one corner.

  • dark grey 2.6% of the sample

    Spread across the sampled board rather than parked in one corner.

  • navy 39.2% of the sample

    Dark board backing — empty cells or mechanism panels, not a coloured block.

How to read this board

Start from the largest colour: red

Red covers 11.9% of the sampled board — more than any other colour. It has the most pieces to route, so clear it early once its door is reachable instead of leaving it until the board is tight.

Protect the middle: pale blue

Pale blue sits mostly in the central half of the sample. Moving it will cross routes other colours still need, so keep that part of the board as clear as the level allows.

There is spare space — use it deliberately

About 39.2% of the sample is dark background. That is more breathing room than the busiest boards get, so use an empty lane as a waiting spot instead of parking a block in front of a door.

9 measured colours

The sample contains 9 main colours. Fewer colours means fewer door groups to track, but the remaining pieces can still block each other; clear one colour at a time.

How the Level 130 clear works

The sample fills 45.7% of its 20x28 lattice and splits into 9 colours and 53 groups. More sampled pieces sit in the top third (64.1%) than in the bottom third (16.8%), so the upper lanes carry most of the traffic. Blue is the most divided colour, with 9 separate groups in the sample. Space is shared, so the order matters more than the speed: a block parked in a doorway can wall off another colour completely.

Level 130 sits in the Intermediate tier and in the 121–160 block of this guide. Mid-game boards start crossing lanes and adding a second color on the same route. The extra challenge is not speed but sequencing — clear the block whose path disappears first. The sample has 2 empty rows and no full-width corridor, so spare space is limited.

Strategy note 1

With only 2 empty rows in the sample, every move has to open the next one. Plan two moves ahead before sliding into the middle.

Strategy note 2

Blue is split into 9 groups. Clear the group closest to its door first; the far groups stay blocked until that run is finished.

Strategy note 3

Only 45.7% of the sample is covered, so the edges can hold waiting blocks while the centre stays open.

Strategy note 4

If two colours are split into several groups, finish the smaller colour first so it stops competing for lanes.

Strategy note 5

Solve one colour at a time instead of pushing several blocks around at once.

These notes combine the measured 9-colour sample with the intermediate mechanics, not a move-by-move transcript. The video above is the exact clear for this board.

Block Out Level 130 — frequently asked questions

What colours are on the Block Out Level 130 board?
The board image on this page breaks down into 9 main colours: red (11.9%), orange (11.9%), blue (10.9%), green (8.3%), pale blue (5.2%), pink (3.8%), cyan (3.6%), purple (2.6%), dark grey (2.6%). The names are read off the measured hex values shown beside each swatch, so they can differ from the name the game gives the same block.
Which colour covers the most of the Level 130 board?
Red is the largest measured colour at 11.9% of the sample. That makes it the colour with the most pieces to route, so it is usually the one worth clearing early once its door is open.
How much of the Level 130 board is empty?
The dark board background covers 39.2% of the sample. It can include empty cells and mechanism panels, so read it as spare backing area rather than a count of free moves.
Does the board image show the order to move the blocks?
No. A still image shows the colours and their layout, but not the block queue or the order the game offers. The video on this page is the exact clear; the measured breakdown is what the board costs to clear, not a tap-by-tap order.
How is the Level 130 board laid out?
The sample fills 45.7% of its 20x28 lattice and splits into 9 colours and 53 groups. More sampled pieces sit in the top third (64.1%) than in the bottom third (16.8%), so the upper lanes carry most of the traffic. The sample has 2 empty rows and no full-width corridor, so spare space is limited.
What difficulty is Level 130 in Block Out?
Level 130 is rated Intermediate difficulty in Block Out! - Color Sort Puzzle. Tiers run from Beginner (1-99) through Intermediate (100-249) and Advanced (250-449) to Expert (450 and up).
Is there a video walkthrough for Block Out Level 130?
Yes — the video on this page plays the complete clear of this board, so you can follow the block routes in real time.
Why do I get stuck on Block Out Level 130?
Most jams on Level 130 come from opening a second colour before the first is off the board. The sample holds 9 colours split into 53 groups, so every extra front costs a lane. Clear one colour at a time, keep the middle open, and treat the edges as waiting space.
Does Block Out work offline?
Yes. Block Out! - Color Sort Puzzle can be played offline once installed — there are no online requirements during normal play.
