What You're Up Against
Level 165 paints Star with 124 tiles across 3 colors, split into 5 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Aqua: 74 tiles โ cubes of 36, 34, 4
- Teal: 34 tiles โ cubes of 34
- Red: 16 tiles โ cubes of 16
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.
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 Aqua 4 cube.
- Send the Teal 34 cube. Only ~32 of its 34 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 Aqua 34 cube. Only ~32 of its 34 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 Aqua 36 cube. Only ~26 of its 36 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 Red 16 cube. Only ~12 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.
Finish without boosters for 3 stars and bonus coins. If the board jams anyway, a Shuffle or Vacuum booster is the cheapest way out.
