Orange 8
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 โ?โ 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 Dark 26 cube.
- Send the Dark 16 cube.
- Send the Orange 8 cube.
- Send the Forest 4 cube.
- Send the Dark 40 cube. Only ~30 of its 40 tiles are open at this point โ park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Black 23 cube. Only ~20 of its 23 tiles are open at this point โ park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Black 25 cube. Only ~15 of its 25 tiles are open at this point โ 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.
