What You're Up Against
Level 1186 paints Sun with 484 tiles across 4 colors, split into 16 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Navy: 360 tiles → cubes of 49, 45, 43, 38, 34, 29, 28, 25, 24, 23, 22
- Blue: 70 tiles → cubes of 36, 22, 12
- Yellow: 48 tiles → cubes of 48
- Red: 6 tiles → cubes of 6
⚠️ 2 hidden “?” cubes in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Blue 12, Red 6
🔒 1 locked cube — free the cube above them before they can be picked.
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 Navy 49 cube.
- Send the Navy 45 cube.
- Send the Navy 43 cube.
- Send the Navy 38 cube.
- Send the Navy 34 cube.
- Send the Navy 29 cube.
- Send the Navy 28 cube.
- Send the Navy 25 cube.
- Send the Navy 24 cube.
- Send the Navy 23 cube.
- Send the Blue 12 cube.
- Send the Yellow 48 cube. Only ~46 of its 48 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Navy 22 cube.
- Send the Blue 22 cube.
- Send the Blue 36 cube. Only ~14 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 Red 6 cube.
Finish without boosters for 3 stars and bonus coins. If the board jams anyway, a Shuffle or Vacuum booster is the cheapest way out.
