Wool Crush level guide
Wool Crush Level 172 Walkthrough
Wool Crush Level 172 opens with a diamond board. Your main job is to save the kitten in the upper half of the screen before the yarn dragon closes the route. Chain locks keep key routes sealed until you clear the supporting layer around them.
Quick Tips for Level 172 (spoiler-free)
- Watch your bottom slot capacity carefully! At around the 0:33 mark of this level, it's extremely easy to get clogged with four unmatched spools (like pink, teal, green, and purple).
- Always plan a saving match—such as holding back a green left-pointing arrow—to clear space right before you hit the limit!
- Video-specific route: Begin your puzzle by targeting the free-moving arrows on the outer boundaries. Start by clearing the green right-pointing block on the bottom-right edge.
- Chain locks keep key routes sealed until you clear the supporting layer around them.
- If two routes look possible, take the one that removes an outer blocker first. Revealing new arrows is almost always stronger than forcing a speculative match.
How to Solve Wool Crush Level 172 — Full Solution
- Begin your puzzle by targeting the free-moving arrows on the outer boundaries. Start by clearing the green right-pointing block on the bottom-right edge.
- Immediately follow up by clicking the yellow up-left arrow and the blue up-left arrow located on the top-left outer edge. Continue by selecting the orange right-pointing arrow and the blue down-left arrow to thin out the perimeter.
- As you expose the inner layers, purposefully aim active blocks to hit the translucent blue ice blocks on the board to shatter them. Your primary objective in the center is the purple left-pointing key block.
- Clear the blocks in its path to free it, which will automatically open the central padlock tile. Keep matching spools to unravel the dragon's red head and yellow body away from the kitten.
Colors in this level:
Orange, Red, Cyan
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Merging the easiest pair first rather than the one blocking other matches.
- Sliding a block that cuts off the only path for a same-colored block to travel.
- Forgetting that a merged gap creates new open paths — always reassess after each merge.
