Quick answer
Release the upper-left bends and the outer right rail. Work through the lower-left ring cluster, then return to the reduced upper-middle chain.

- Level 387
- Difficulty
- Normal
- Objective
- Separate all linked pieces in this layout: Narrow zigzag grid with a long right rail. Align each opening with its connection, then clear the remaining branches.

Step-by-step
Release the upper-left bends and the outer right rail. 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 through the lower-left ring cluster, then return to the reduced upper-middle chain. 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.
Separate the final purple and green loops near the top. 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 upper-left bends and the outer right rail.
- Work through the lower-left ring cluster, then return to the reduced upper-middle chain.
- Separate the final purple and green loops near the top.
- After every release, check which pieces are still connected; color alone does not determine the move order.
Common mistakes
- The long right rail links several heights, so a free-looking endpoint can still have another attachment.
- Repeating the same rotation without checking the opening and the remaining contact.
Frequently asked questions
How do I start Rotate Rings level 387: Narrow zigzag grid with a long right rail?
Release the upper-left bends and the outer right rail. 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 387?
Work through the lower-left ring cluster, then return to the reduced upper-middle chain. 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 long right rail links several heights, so a free-looking endpoint can still have another attachment. For the finish: Separate the final purple and green loops near the top. Move one remaining piece at a time and wait for its release before deciding whether another contact still needs attention.
