What You're Up Against
Level 842 paints Car with 118 tiles across 4 colors, split into 5 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Navy: 60 tiles โ cubes of 31, 29
- Violet: 36 tiles โ cubes of 36
- Red: 18 tiles โ cubes of 18
- Black: 4 tiles โ cubes of 4
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.
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 Navy 31 cube. Only ~17 of its 31 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 4 cube.
- Send the Violet 36 cube. Only ~15 of its 36 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 Navy 29 cube. Only ~24 of its 29 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 18 cube. Only ~16 of its 18 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.
