What You're Up Against
Level 163 paints Sun with 484 tiles across 4 colors, split into 15 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Pink: 360 tiles → cubes of 51, 47, 46, 44, 43, 40, 36, 26, 23, 4
- Purple: 70 tiles → cubes of 41, 29
- Green: 48 tiles → cubes of 28, 20
- Lime: 6 tiles → cubes of 6
⚠️ 2 hidden “?” cubes in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Lime 6, Purple 29
🔒 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.
- Send the Pink 51 cube.
- Send the Pink 47 cube.
- Send the Pink 46 cube.
- Send the Pink 44 cube.
- Send the Pink 36 cube.
- Send the Green 28 cube.
- Send the Pink 43 cube.
- Send the Pink 26 cube.
- Send the Pink 23 cube.
- Send the Pink 4 cube.
- Send the Purple 41 cube. Only ~17 of its 41 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 40 cube. Only ~18 of its 40 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Green 20 cube.
- Send the Purple 29 cube. Only ~15 of its 29 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Lime 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.
