Step-by-step
Clear the upper white upright and short red tray to create room beside the orange side branch. Before dragging, compare the whole container with the empty cells beside it. A clear cell next to the stem does not necessarily give its corner or side arm enough space. Make one deliberate move and check which matching balls remain.
Move the long green tray through the center before bringing the cyan cross up from the lower half. Use the newly empty cells as a crossing area rather than filling them immediately with another shape. Look at the destination of the next container before moving the current one, and keep a return route to any balls still sitting near the boundary.
Finish the remaining orange upright and yellow corner while checking the cross's last boundary targets. Follow the remaining color groups around the board and let each collection finish before moving on. If a piece stops, inspect its entire outline and the neighboring obstacles. Reposition the blocker into a genuinely empty area rather than repeatedly dragging toward an occupied cell.
