What You're Up Against
Level 988 paints Puzzle with 342 tiles across 5 colors, split into 12 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Jade: 78 tiles → cubes of 31, 30, 17
- Cream: 75 tiles → cubes of 40, 35
- Cyan: 75 tiles → cubes of 35, 21, 19
- Green: 75 tiles → cubes of 48, 22, 5
- Aqua: 39 tiles → cubes of 39
⚠️ 2 hidden “?” cubes in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Green 22, Green 5
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 Cyan 35 cube.
- Send the Jade 31 cube.
- Send the Cream 35 cube.
- Send the Green 22 cube.
- Send the Cyan 21 cube.
- Send the Jade 17 cube.
- Send the Green 5 cube.
- Send the Green 48 cube. Only ~29 of its 48 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Cream 40 cube. Only ~27 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.
- Send the Jade 30 cube. Only ~22 of its 30 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Aqua 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.
- Send the Cyan 19 cube. Only ~18 of its 19 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.
