Ring connections and board notes

This board has been reconstructed, but its complete move sequence is not yet available. Use the numbered diagram and report a tested opening move to help refine it. Bombs are shown at their saved positions; their effects and timers are not included in this candidate.

  1. 13 slide bars are shown. Match their tracks and connected clamps on the diagram.

  2. 16 clamps are shown. Locate each clamp and its linked slide bar before moving either object.

  3. Clear the 1 timed bomb first.

  4. Rings fly away automatically once their connections and constraints are released. The diagram numbers identify rings; they are not an operation sequence.

Step-by-step walkthrough

The complete route is still being worked out. Only the opening moves below passed the current checks; they do not establish a full solution. This candidate assumes a clamp opens when its paired bar leaves; confirm this behavior in the game.

  1. Move S15 up along its track about 4.00 ring radii. Continue until the bar leaves the board. Release and wait. Expected departure: S15. Expected remainder: 11 rings, 15 bars.

  2. Move S14 right along its track about 7.86 ring radii. Continue until the bar leaves the board. Release and wait. Expected departure: S14. Expected remainder: 11 rings, 14 bars.

  3. Rotate Ring 2 clockwise about 143°. Target opening direction: 257° (right 0°, up 90°). Release and wait. Expected departure: Ring 2. Expected remainder: 10 rings, 14 bars.

  4. Move S16 left along its track about 3.71 ring radii. Continue until the bar leaves the board. Release and wait. Expected departure: S16. Expected remainder: 10 rings, 13 bars.

  5. Move S3 left along its track about 2.00 ring radii. Release and wait. No departure is expected yet. Expected remainder: 10 rings, 13 bars.

Ring
An open ring can rotate. Align its opening with the connecting pin to release that connection. Rings fly away automatically once their connections and constraints are released.
Blocking pin
A fixed pin sitting on a ring's edge. It holds another ring in place, so its gap has to face this pin.Read the mechanism guide →
Stop pin
Limits how far a ring can turn, so only part of the ring is reachable.Read the mechanism guide →
Latch
Holds a ring in place. A stick locks it, so release the stick first and then turn the matching ring.Read the mechanism guide →
Stick

Frequently asked questions

Which board should I use for level 51?

This page has 9 distinct boards. The default A board has 0 rings and 0 blocking pins. Compare these features and the thumbnails before following its steps.

What do the numbers on the diagram mean?

They identify individual rings, not the operation order. A written step can also describe a bar or latch, so the step number is not always the ring number. Match the ring number named in the instruction with the diagram.

What should I check when I am stuck on level 51?

Check whether the ring is open or closed, whether a stop pin limits rotation and whether a latch is still locked by a bar. Repeated rotation does not remove a fixed obstruction. Compare the neighboring connections, then return to the step for the matching ring number.
