What You're Up Against
Level 495 paints Star with 124 tiles across 3 colors, split into 6 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Purple: 74 tiles → cubes of 39, 29, 6
- Violet: 34 tiles → cubes of 21, 13
- Brown: 16 tiles → cubes of 16
⚠️ 1 hidden “?” cube in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Brown 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 Violet 21 cube.
- Send the Purple 29 cube.
- Send the Purple 6 cube.
- Send the Purple 39 cube. Only ~24 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 Violet 13 cube.
- Send the Brown 16 cube. Only ~12 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.
