What You're Up Against

Level 1285 paints Sun with 484 tiles across 4 colors, split into 16 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.

  • White: 360 tiles → cubes of 46, 46, 45, 44, 36, 36, 24, 23, 22, 19, 19
  • Sand: 70 tiles → cubes of 37, 33
  • Lime: 48 tiles → cubes of 33, 15
  • Aqua: 6 tiles → cubes of 6

⚠️ 2 hidden “?” cubes in the tray.

Spoiler: what they hide

Aqua 6, Sand 33

🔒 1 locked cube — free the cube above them before they can be picked.

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 White 46 cube.
  2. Send the White 46 cube.
  3. Send the White 45 cube.
  4. Send the White 44 cube.
  5. Send the White 36 cube.
  6. Send the White 36 cube.
  7. Send the Lime 33 cube.
  8. Send the White 24 cube.
  9. Send the White 23 cube.
  10. Send the White 22 cube.
  11. Send the White 19 cube.
  12. Send the Sand 37 cube. Only ~22 of its 37 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
  13. Send the White 19 cube. Only ~17 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.
  14. Send the Lime 15 cube.
  15. Send the Sand 33 cube. Only ~14 of its 33 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
  16. Send the Aqua 6 cube.

Finish without boosters for 3 stars and bonus coins. If the board jams anyway, a Shuffle or Vacuum booster is the cheapest way out.
