What You're Up Against

Level 1286 paints Shroom House with 173 tiles across 4 colors, split into 6 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.

  • Coral: 84 tiles โ†’ cubes of 33, 26, 25
  • Violet: 47 tiles โ†’ cubes of 47
  • Lime: 24 tiles โ†’ cubes of 24
  • Navy: 18 tiles โ†’ cubes of 18

โš ๏ธ 1 hidden โ€œ?โ€ cube in the tray.

Spoiler: what they hide

Lime 24

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 โ€œ?โ€ 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.

  1. Send the Coral 26 cube.
  2. Send the Coral 25 cube. Only ~23 of its 25 tiles are open at this point โ€” park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
  3. Send the Violet 47 cube. Only ~15 of its 47 tiles are open at this point โ€” park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
  4. Send the Coral 33 cube. Only ~21 of its 33 tiles are open at this point โ€” park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
  5. Send the Lime 24 cube. Only ~16 of its 24 tiles are open at this point โ€” park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
  6. Send the Navy 18 cube. Only ~14 of its 18 tiles are open at this point โ€” 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.
