Color Block Jam Level 371 Walkthrough
Main Objective: Unlock all five golden keys spread across the grid, then clear the red gate barrier to open access to the center-locked piece.
Board Structure Highlights
- The board is symmetrical, with mirrored left/right halves.
- Five golden keys are tucked into tight corners and middle rows.
- A red striped barrier surrounds the center lock, requiring all keys to be collected before it disappears.
- Side slides and narrow placements are critical for reaching keys early.
Step-by-Step Strategy to clear Level 371
- Start with the corners: Begin by clearing the red and blue blocks near the bottom-left and bottom-right keys. These are more accessible and free up rotation early.
- Clear horizontal orange-yellow lanes: The large orange blocks lining the middle rows restrict access. Focus on clearing these to open passageways to the center lock and mid-level keys.
- Unlock top-side keys: Once the lower area is free, rotate the board to approach the top-left and top-right keys. Use vertical and L-shaped blocks to fit into side columns.
- Unlock the center key: Remove the blocks guarding the red, green, and purple layers to collect the fifth and final key at the center-left.
- Break the red barrier: After collecting all five keys, the red striped gate disappears, unlocking the center tile. Prepare the area so you can drop a wide piece or chain reaction to clear it efficiently.
- Final cleanup: With the gate removed and space open, rotate and sweep the remaining blocks across the board.
Tips for Success
- Rotate after every major move to uncover new fitting angles.
- Don’t hoard large pieces—place them as soon as the layout allows.
- Keep at least one side clear to maintain flexibility throughout the level.
Common Pitfalls
- Clearing the top keys too late can trap pieces if the sides are full.
- Ignoring horizontal orange barriers early makes the middle too congested.
- Forgetting to prep the center space after unlocking the gate delays the final clear.
