What You're Up Against
Level 980 paints Cactus with 106 tiles across 4 colors, split into 5 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Indigo: 56 tiles → cubes of 47, 9
- Black: 24 tiles → cubes of 24
- Pink: 18 tiles → cubes of 18
- Yellow: 8 tiles → cubes of 8
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 Indigo 9 cube.
- Send the Indigo 47 cube. Only ~30 of its 47 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Black 24 cube. Only ~12 of its 24 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Pink 18 cube.
- Send the Yellow 8 cube. Only ~6 of its 8 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.
