What You're Up Against

Level 228 paints Puzzle with 342 tiles across 5 colors, split into 11 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.

  • Yellow: 78 tiles → cubes of 32, 25, 21
  • Black: 75 tiles → cubes of 50, 19, 6
  • Green: 75 tiles → cubes of 53, 22
  • Red: 75 tiles → cubes of 45, 30
  • Magenta: 39 tiles → cubes of 39

⚠️ 1 hidden “?” cube in the tray.

Spoiler: what they hide

Red 30

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 Yellow 32 cube.
  2. Send the Red 30 cube.
  3. Send the Yellow 25 cube.
  4. Send the Green 22 cube.
  5. Send the Black 19 cube.
  6. Send the Black 6 cube.
  7. Send the Black 50 cube. Only ~31 of its 50 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
  8. Send the Green 53 cube. Only ~31 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.
  9. Send the Red 45 cube. Only ~29 of its 45 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
  10. Send the Yellow 21 cube. Only ~20 of its 21 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
  11. Send the Magenta 39 cube. Only ~20 of its 39 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.
