Yarn Loop level guide
Yarn Loop Level 467 Walkthrough
Level 467 goal: carve the orange circular disk from the outside so one main crescent survives late instead of scattering into dots. The long chokepoint comes in `01:40-02:40`, when an upper-left curved arc hangs beside a detached orange clump and a small trail of crumbs on the right.
Verified Board Notes
- Initial Layout Geometry
- The opening board is almost entirely a round orange woven disk on a pale gray field. Most of the picture is one braided-looking circle with only a narrow border of background around it.
- Goal / Target Area
- The outer rim and the pale background need to be reduced together with the orange weave. If you peck at the middle too early, the board drags on a top-left crescent, a small right-side chunk, and a trail of orange dots.
- Opening Moves
- Begin on one side of the circular edge while also taking the gray field with it. The first useful break forms on the lower-right side, and that opening is easier to widen than a random bite out of the center.
- Danger Zone
- The hardest stretch is about 01:40-02:40, when the full disk is gone but one curved orange arc still hangs in the upper left with a detached clump and a few crumbs to the right. The pace only improves after that last thick arc is cut down.
- Unique Mechanics
- This level has almost no supporting scenery, so the cleanup is all about managing one stubborn curved shape. Because nearly everything is the same orange family, it is easy to scatter the board into tiny pieces if you do not keep the last arc thick for as long as possible.
Quick Tips for Level 467 (spoiler-free)
- Open the lower-right edge and pale gray field together instead of biting into the middle of the disk.
- Remove the detached right-side orange clump before overworking the upper-left crescent.
- During `01:40-02:40`, clear the biggest curved arc before the trail of orange dots.
How to Solve Yarn Loop Level 467 — Full Solution
- Start on the outer circular rim and the pale gray field, especially along the lower-right edge where the first gap opens.
- Widen that opening through the right side and underside so the disk loses its full round shape early.
- Keep the upper-left crescent thick while you remove the smaller right-side clump.
- In `01:40-02:40`, clear the biggest remaining curved arc before the small orange dot trail beside it.
- Finish by erasing the last crescent and only then sweeping the crumbs around the top and right.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Not planning the chain clear: each finished route should immediately set up the next one.
- Moving a yarn segment without confirming the matching color can still connect later.
- Ignoring choke points where two colors cross and block each other.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Level 467 get awkward even though the board looks simple?
The input says there is almost no supporting scenery, so the cleanup is really about managing one stubborn curved orange shape instead of several different picture parts.
What should I focus on in the `01:40-02:40` phase on Level 467?
Clear the largest curved arc first. The source says the pace only improves after that last thick upper-left arc is cut down.
What usually causes the final slowdown on Level 467?
Most slow finishes come from breaking the disk into a crescent, a detached right-side clump, and a trail of orange dots too early, which forces a dot-by-dot cleanup.
