What You're Up Against

Level 266 paints Puzzle with 342 tiles across 5 colors, split into 10 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.

  • Magenta: 78 tiles → cubes of 44, 34
  • Pink: 75 tiles → cubes of 43, 32
  • Coral: 75 tiles → cubes of 38, 37
  • Cream: 75 tiles → cubes of 31, 28, 16
  • Red: 39 tiles → cubes of 39

⚠️ 1 hidden “?” cube in the tray.

Spoiler: what they hide

Cream 16

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 Magenta 34 cube.
  2. Send the Pink 32 cube.
  3. Send the Coral 38 cube.
  4. Send the Cream 31 cube.
  5. Send the Cream 28 cube.
  6. Send the Magenta 44 cube. Only ~28 of its 44 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
  7. Send the Pink 43 cube. Only ~28 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.
  8. Send the Coral 37 cube. Only ~25 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.
  9. Send the Red 39 cube. Only ~19 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.
  10. Send the Cream 16 cube. Only ~15 of its 16 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.
