Spoiler: what they hide
White 5, Violet 20
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 Green 52 cube.
- Send the Green 19 cube.
- Send the Navy 36 cube.
- Send the Red 5 cube.
- Send the Navy 44 cube. Only ~33 of its 44 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Red 31 cube.
- Send the Red 23 cube.
- Send the Red 22 cube.
- Send the Green 13 cube.
- Send the Red 55 cube. Only ~31 of its 55 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Violet 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 White 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.
