What You're Up Against
Level 168 paints Citrus with 325 tiles across 5 colors, split into 11 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Green: 136 tiles → cubes of 52, 43, 41
- Cream: 84 tiles → cubes of 38, 23, 23
- Blue: 80 tiles → cubes of 38, 23, 19
- Sand: 20 tiles → cubes of 20
- Teal: 5 tiles → cubes of 5
⚠️ 1 hidden “?” cube in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Teal 5
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 Cream 38 cube.
- Send the Cream 23 cube.
- Send the Blue 23 cube.
- Send the Blue 19 cube.
- Send the Green 41 cube. Only ~22 of its 41 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Green 43 cube. Only ~18 of its 43 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Cream 23 cube. Only ~18 of its 23 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 38 cube. Only ~26 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 Green 52 cube. Only ~20 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 Sand 20 cube. Only ~16 of its 20 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Teal 5 cube. Only ~4 of its 5 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.
