What You're Up Against
Level 479 paints Car with 118 tiles across 4 colors, split into 6 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Coral: 60 tiles → cubes of 34, 26
- Magenta: 36 tiles → cubes of 21, 15
- Green: 18 tiles → cubes of 18
- Sand: 4 tiles → cubes of 4
⚠️ 1 hidden “?” cube in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Green 18
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 34 cube. Only ~17 of its 34 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 15 cube.
- Send the Sand 4 cube.
- Send the Coral 26 cube. Only ~16 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 Green 18 cube. Only ~16 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 Magenta 21 cube. Only ~16 of its 21 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.
