Spoiler: what they hide
Magenta 26
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 Coral 18 cube.
- Send the Jade 3 cube.
- Send the Coral 53 cube. Only ~31 of its 53 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Magenta 26 cube. Only ~22 of its 26 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 44 cube. Only ~19 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 Jade 19 cube. Only ~16 of its 19 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Dark 10 cube. Only ~9 of its 10 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.
