What You're Up Against

Level 456 paints Puzzle with 342 tiles across 5 colors, split into 12 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.

  • Purple: 78 tiles → cubes of 33, 19, 19, 7
  • Sand: 75 tiles → cubes of 46, 29
  • Red: 75 tiles → cubes of 49, 26
  • Cyan: 75 tiles → cubes of 40, 35
  • Aqua: 39 tiles → cubes of 26, 13

⚠️ 2 hidden “?” cubes in the tray.

Spoiler: what they hide

Cyan 35, Cyan 40

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 Cyan 35 cube.
  2. Send the Purple 33 cube.
  3. Send the Sand 29 cube.
  4. Send the Red 26 cube.
  5. Send the Purple 19 cube.
  6. Send the Purple 19 cube.
  7. Send the Aqua 13 cube.
  8. Send the Purple 7 cube.
  9. Send the Sand 46 cube. Only ~29 of its 46 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 Red 49 cube. Only ~29 of its 49 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 Cyan 40 cube. Only ~26 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.
  12. Send the Aqua 26 cube. Only ~16 of its 26 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.
