What You're Up Against
Level 266 paints Puzzle with 342 tiles across 5 colors, split into 10 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Magenta: 78 tiles → cubes of 44, 34
- Pink: 75 tiles → cubes of 43, 32
- Coral: 75 tiles → cubes of 38, 37

⚠️ 1 hidden “?” cube in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Cream 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. 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 Magenta 34 cube.
- Send the Pink 32 cube.
- Send the Coral 38 cube.
- Send the Cream 31 cube.
- Send the Cream 28 cube.
- Send the Magenta 44 cube. Only ~28 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 Pink 43 cube. Only ~28 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 Coral 37 cube. Only ~25 of its 37 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 39 cube. Only ~19 of its 39 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 16 cube. Only ~15 of its 16 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.
