- Indigo: 90 tiles → cubes of 37, 31, 22
- Navy: 54 tiles → cubes of 54
- Cream: 38 tiles → cubes of 38
- Black: 36 tiles → cubes of 36
- Forest: 12 tiles → cubes of 12
⚠️ 2 hidden “?” cubes in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Black 36, Forest 12
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 Brown 4 cube.
- Send the Indigo 37 cube. Only ~21 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.

Finish without boosters for 3 stars and bonus coins. If the board jams anyway, a Shuffle or Vacuum booster is the cheapest way out.
