Quick answer
Release the small upper green and red acorn links. Work down through the blue stem and clear the lower-left branches.

- Difficulty
- Normal
- Objective
- Separate all linked pieces in this layout: Narrow upper stem above a broad lower lattice. Align each opening with its connection, then clear the remaining branches.

Step-by-step
Release the small upper green and red acorn links. Find the actual gap on this piece before turning it. Follow its contact with the neighboring link, rather than assuming the colored outlines form one object. Make a small controlled rotation and check whether the connection has released before selecting another part.
Work down through the blue stem and clear the lower-left branches. Reassess the structure after each release: a piece that looked trapped at the start may now have only one neighbor. Use the empty area to see the next contact clearly. Follow the branch described here instead of jumping to a similar color elsewhere.
Finish the purple-blue ring pair and remaining green lower chain. Watch the final connection as well as the open ends. A nearly empty board can still contain a linked pair, so keep aligning the gap with the remaining contact. Stop repeating a turn that changes nothing and inspect which neighboring piece still holds the chain.
Tips
- Release the small upper green and red acorn links.
- Work down through the blue stem and clear the lower-left branches.
- Finish the purple-blue ring pair and remaining green lower chain.
- After every release, check which pieces are still connected; color alone does not determine the move order.
Common mistakes
- The upper stem connects to the lower lattice through a small middle circle.
- Repeating the same rotation without checking the opening and the remaining contact.
Frequently asked questions
How do I start Rotate Rings level 121: Narrow upper stem above a broad lower lattice?
Release the small upper green and red acorn links. Match this branch by its position and shape before moving. If your starting arrangement differs, compare the video with your board rather than forcing the same sequence.
What is the key transition in level 121?
Work down through the blue stem and clear the lower-left branches. Keep watching the contact points as the structure shrinks. The next release depends on what remains linked, so recheck the gap after a neighboring piece disappears.
What can block the finish in this layout?
The upper stem connects to the lower lattice through a small middle circle. For the finish: Finish the purple-blue ring pair and remaining green lower chain. Move one remaining piece at a time and wait for its release before deciding whether another contact still needs attention.
