i think that'd help!
you could also utilize the way you can progress to the next level with the button in the bottom-right, just duplicate it on the other side to allow players to go back themselves too (though this is suggested while under the impression you really do need to carry certain blocks over from previous screens - is that accurate? or have i misinterpreted the puzzle(s)?)

I had implemented something like that, but I thought it made it too easy. 

Yes, even though it's not obligatory, the more blocks yo take with you, the easier it will be.

I think that's a great mechanic of things being easier the more you bring with you, definitely make that more known (even just in the description) because it's VERY in line with the theme :D

What if I create a help button that gives certain hints when pressed?
