When you first load into Color Block Jam Level 862, the grid looks like a fortress. The frozen 12 block sits in the bottom center, boxed in by vertical red and purple blocks. To make things even more chaotic, chained orange blocks (3, 4) and cannons (5, 6) are scattered on both sides, daring you to make the wrong move. This is a level that demands both patience and precision.
Breaking the Top Wall
The very first barrier to tackle is the 6 block at the top. Moving it aside creates breathing room for the vertical orange and red blockers. Clear this early, and the puzzle instantly feels less cramped.
Side Cannons Are Key
Notice the blue and green cannons (5 and 6) sitting at the lower corners. These aren’t just decorations, they're essential. Slide them into position to eliminate nearby blockers, especially the orange blocks that restrict the frozen 12. Use them wisely, and the central lane begins to open.
Clearing the Central Cross
The giant teal cross-shaped block is the anchor of this level. Shift it carefully to expose the vertical lanes. Once the purple and red columns are nudged aside, the frozen 12-block can finally start moving upward.
The Final Slide
With the top wall down, cannons used, and the teal cross shifted, it’s time to guide the frozen 12. Slide it smoothly through the middle lane and out of the grid for a satisfying win.
Use the cannons at the right time. Triggering them too early might waste their clearing potential.
Prioritize the vertical columns. The red and purple blocks are the true gatekeepers here.
Don’t panic. Level 862 looks intimidating, but once the teal cross is loosened, the puzzle flows naturally.
Unlike earlier puzzles, Color Block Jam Level 862 layers in chained blocks, cannons, and a massive central piece that feels impossible to move at first glance. It’s a clever mix of mechanics that pushes you to think several moves ahead.
Level 862 may look overwhelming, but by combining early top clearance, smart cannon use, and central lane control, you can free the frozen 12 with ease.
