Colony Flow Level 498 Answer Key, Walkthrough & Solution

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.

1. Send the Sand 46 cube.
2. Send the Sand 29 cube.
3. Send the Jade 36 cube.
4. Send the Jade 28 cube.
5. Send the Orange 52 cube. Only ~31 of its 52 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
6. Send the Orange 34 cube. Only ~25 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.
7. Send the Orange 50 cube. Only ~19 of its 50 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
8. Send the Jade 16 cube.
9. Send the Sand 9 cube.
10. Send the Yellow 20 cube. Only ~16 of its 20 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
11. Send the Indigo 5 cube. Only ~4 of its 5 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.
