What You're Up Against
Level 153 paints Rainbow with 388 tiles across 5 colors, split into 11 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Violet: 102 tiles → cubes of 54, 48
- Brown: 86 tiles → cubes of 53, 33
- Orange: 74 tiles → cubes of 42, 32
- Black: 66 tiles → cubes of 32, 23, 11
- Navy: 60 tiles → cubes of 43, 17
⚠️ 1 hidden “?” cube in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Navy 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 Black 23 cube.
- Send the Navy 17 cube.
- Send the Black 11 cube.
- Send the Black 32 cube. Only ~22 of its 32 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Orange 42 cube. Only ~30 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 Violet 48 cube. Only ~26 of its 48 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Orange 32 cube. Only ~22 of its 32 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Violet 54 cube. Only ~26 of its 54 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Brown 33 cube.
- Send the Brown 53 cube. Only ~29 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 Navy 43 cube. Only ~37 of its 43 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.
