Bus Rush Fever! Level 88 Walkthrough

expert 5 colors

Bus Rush Fever! Level 88 is easiest when you build one diagonal route to the top mouth and refuse to spread your work across the whole scatter. Once that strand is open, the rest of the angled rows start following it instead of fighting it.

Board Notes

Layout
Level 88 opens as a diagonal scatter with a gentle braid through the center. Purple, cyan, yellow, red, and brown buses lie in angled rows, while the upper route narrows at the top into a short mouth under the wheel. It feels like a slanted cousin of Level 69, but looser.
Goal
The first target is the central diagonal strand that reaches the top mouth. If that line is not claimed, the scatter never becomes route space and the next upper chain lands into a tilted mess.
Opening
The walkthrough opens one diagonal through the middle and protects the short mouth above it, then gradually lets the surrounding rows feed that same line. It avoids flattening the whole scatter evenly.
Danger Zone
The danger comes when the top mouth opens before the central diagonal is fully ready. That adds new traffic to a braid that is still only half organized.
Mechanics
Level 88 is a diagonal-mouth board. The lower field looks random, but one slanted strand still has to be made safe before the upper route can use it.

Quick Tips for Bus Rush Fever! Level 88 (spoiler-free)

  • In Level 88, the board is only random if you let it be. Claim one diagonal and the pattern shows up immediately.
  • With 5 colors in play, clear the pair with the fewest blockers first so the board opens up instead of tightening.
  • Think in chain clears. The best move is the one that sets up the next two moves, not just the quickest current match.

How to Solve Bus Rush Fever! Level 88 — Full Solution

  1. Open one central diagonal before you spend the upper mouth above it.
  2. Protect that strand so the scatter starts behaving like lanes instead of confetti.
  3. Keep the top route waiting until the diagonal can carry a full handoff.
  4. Feed neighboring angled rows into the same strand instead of opening several weak diagonals.
  5. Finish by clearing the remaining side pieces after the mouth and the braid are finally aligned.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Opening the top mouth before the central diagonal is fully ready, which dumps new traffic onto a braid that is still only half organized.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why should I open the central diagonal strand first in Bus Rush Fever! Level 88?

    If that diagonal is not claimed, the scatter never becomes route space and the next upper chain lands in a tilted mess. One safe strand is what makes the angled rows fall into a pattern.

  • What usually jams the central diagonal strand in Bus Rush Fever! Level 88?

    Letting the top mouth feed in too soon. The braid is still half-organized, so the fresh traffic re-tangles the slanted rows instead of draining them.
