- Coral: 70 tiles → cubes of 53, 17

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 Jade 26 cube.
- Send the Coral 17 cube.
- Send the Jade 4 cube.
- Send the Green 3 cube.
- Send the Jade 42 cube. Only ~24 of its 42 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 53 cube. Only ~23 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 Green 19 cube. Only ~13 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 Indigo 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.
Finish without boosters for 3 stars and bonus coins. If the board jams anyway, a Shuffle or Vacuum booster is the cheapest way out.
