What You're Up Against
Level 1170 paints Gift with 236 tiles across 4 colors, split into 9 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Jade: 130 tiles → cubes of 36, 27, 23, 23, 21
- Red: 42 tiles → cubes of 24, 18
- Pink: 38 tiles → cubes of 38
- Brown: 26 tiles → cubes of 26
⚠️ 1 hidden “?” cube in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Jade 21
Step-by-Step Solution
This loading order was computed from the web level layout with a reachability-first strategy: always feed the ants colors they can actually reach, and never let all 5 slots fill with blocked colors. Tap hidden “?” cubes only when you have slot room to absorb a surprise color.
Load the cubes in this order, letting the ants work between picks. Unless noted, a cube's tiles are fully reachable when you send it.
- Send the Jade 27 cube.
- Send the Jade 23 cube.
- Send the Jade 23 cube.
- Send the Jade 21 cube.
- Send the Red 18 cube.
- Send the Jade 36 cube. Only ~21 of its 36 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Pink 38 cube. Only ~21 of its 38 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Red 24 cube. Only ~21 of its 24 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Brown 26 cube. Only ~18 of its 26 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
Finish without boosters for 3 stars and bonus coins. If the board jams anyway, a Shuffle or Vacuum booster is the cheapest way out.
