White 36, White 29, White 9
🔒 1 locked cube — free the cube above them before they can be picked.
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 White 31 cube.
- Send the White 29 cube.
- Send the Lime 24 cube.
- Send the White 23 cube.
- Send the Lime 22 cube.

- Send the Lime 18 cube.
- Send the Lime 15 cube.
- Send the Lime 14 cube.
- Send the White 9 cube.
- Send the Lime 3 cube.
- Send the White 36 cube. Only ~24 of its 36 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.
