Step-by-step solution

Quick answer
  1. 1) Start by collecting the loose Green marbles at the Top Tray's far left rim and dropping them to empty the two left-hand lower boxes.
  2. 2) Gather the scattered Dark Red marbles from the center span and the right rim to knock out the two right-hand front boxes.
  3. 3) Refuse to touch the central Arrow Boxes, because triggering either the pink or cyan arrows at this stage would pile dead marbles onto your belt.
  4. 4) As the lower area shifts, feed the exposed columns by clearing the solid Purple, Brown, and White boxes lined up in front of the tray.
  5. 5) Tackle the Purple side of the linked Orange-Purple box by pushing the tray's solid Purple marble into it, letting the joined boxes fall together.
  6. 6) With the core open, trigger the Purple and Dark Red arrows so they shoot upward into the grey Hidden Box roof and spill out the trapped colors.
  7. 7) Chase the fresh Yellow and Green marbles first to satisfy the Connected Boxes lingering on the right, and avoid sending Light Blue or Pink down unless their box sits in the front row.
  8. 8) Move top to bottom through the uncovered question-mark zone, clearing one color at a time and mopping up the leftover White and Blue boxes to clear the board.
