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?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.
- Send the Forest 55 cube. Only ~40 of its 55 tiles are open at this point โ park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Pink 31 cube.
- Send the Pink 23 cube.
- Send the Pink 22 cube.
- Send the Pink 40 cube. Only ~19 of its 40 tiles are open at this point โ park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Violet 16 cube. Only ~10 of its 16 tiles are open at this point โ park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Lime 9 cube. Only ~8 of its 9 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.
