What You're Up Against
Level 1197 paints Puzzle with 342 tiles across 6 colors, split into 12 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Black: 75 tiles → cubes of 38, 21, 16
- Jade: 75 tiles → cubes of 54, 21
- Violet: 75 tiles → cubes of 52, 23
- Yellow: 39 tiles → cubes of 39
- Blue: 39 tiles → cubes of 27, 12
- Cyan: 39 tiles → cubes of 36, 3
⚠️ 2 hidden “?” cubes in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Cyan 36, Cyan 3
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 Violet 23 cube.
- Send the Black 21 cube.
- Send the Jade 21 cube.
- Send the Black 16 cube.
- Send the Blue 12 cube.
- Send the Cyan 3 cube.
- Send the Violet 52 cube. Only ~30 of its 52 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Jade 54 cube. Only ~30 of its 54 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Black 38 cube. Only ~24 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 Yellow 39 cube. Only ~20 of its 39 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Cyan 36 cube. Only ~19 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 Blue 27 cube. Only ~16 of its 27 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.
