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 โ?โ 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 Black 42 cube.
- Send the Black 26 cube.
- Send the Red 48 cube. Only ~22 of its 48 tiles are open at this point โ park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Black 20 cube. Only ~17 of its 20 tiles are open at this point โ park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Red 38 cube. Only ~19 of its 38 tiles are open at this point โ park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the White 10 cube.
- Send the Brown 5 cube.
- Send the Brown 19 cube. Only ~11 of its 19 tiles are open at this point โ 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.
