What You're Up Against
Level 23 paints Cactus with 73 tiles across 4 colors, split into 5 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Sand: 39 tiles → cubes of 21, 18
- Lime: 14 tiles → cubes of 14
- Indigo: 12 tiles → cubes of 12
- Yellow: 8 tiles → cubes of 8
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 Sand 21 cube.
- Send the Sand 18 cube. Only ~14 of its 18 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Lime 14 cube. Only ~9 of its 14 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Indigo 12 cube.
- Send the Yellow 8 cube. Only ~6 of its 8 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.
