[AL093] Stacks of Stock

093 - Stacks of Stock

Stacks of Stock is a puzzle in Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy.

Puzzle

Derringer's found himself in a bit of a pickle and needs your help "playing a little game" of box arranging - fast!

The boxes need to be arranged in stacks of the same colour and in the following order from left to right: red, blue, green, yellow. You can move up to four boxes at once, but no stack can contain more than six boxes at any one time.

Quick - it's all up to you! Rearrange those boxes in 30 moves or fewer!

Hints

Click a Tab to reveal the Hint.

Here's a tip to get you started: it's generally a good idea to move boxes in such a way as to group boxes of the same colour wherever possible.

Think about how you're going to rearrange the boxes at the bottom of each stack. It might help to have have a column to work with that contains no boxes at all.

Here's an example of what your stacks could look like after just five moves.

Work out how to get the arrangement shown in Hint 3, then see if you can take another five moves to end up with the following:

Solution

Correct

Good work!

Looks like you got everything sorted just in the nick of time!
