Colony Flow! Level 156 Walkthrough
Colony Flow Level 156 is a rainbow smiley wheel where cyan 40 and purple 30 must open the perimeter before yellow, black, red, green, and orange petal traffic can clear the nested rings.

How to Solve Colony Flow! Level 156 — Full Solution
- Leave the five pads empty for the short opening pause, then tap cyan 40. Wait while its counter falls and the outer cyan ring peels around the left and lower perimeter.
- Tap purple 30 next while cyan remains active. As slots free, queue the dark 35 group, the second purple 30, and pink 32, keeping yellow 35 ready for the next open slot.
- Bring yellow 35 into the next free slot, then use red 30, green 30, orange 28, and orange 25 as the cyan/purple ants pass the bottom hole. Do not fill all five pads at once.
- As the petals separate from the rings, run black 35 / 30, yellow 35, purple 30 / 32, and red 30 in their visible order. This clears the eye and mouth separators while the six lobes remain connected to their exits.
- Use the midgame purple 30, green 24, black 35, red 30, and cyan 40 groups, then the purple 28, red 28, black 26, and pink 32 refills. Wait for each five-slot wave to travel before adding the next color.
- When the petals are mostly gone, route purple 25, cyan 23, black 30, red 21, and pink 1. Follow with black 8, yellow 9, black 32, red 26, and pink 3 for the remaining separator and ring fragments.
- Finish green 30 and orange 30, then wait for the last cyan and purple perimeter ants to complete their loop. The top arc and side hooks must disappear, not just the smiling center.
- Wait for the clear animation after every ring cell is gone; the empty frame confirms Level 156 is complete.
Colors in this level:
Cyan, Purple, Yellow, Black, Red, Green, Orange, Pink
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Sending yellow petal traffic or the pink/red center lobe before cyan 40 has opened the outer ring, which strands the perimeter and crowds the bottom hole.
- Filling all five staging pads with visible 30 stacks while cyan and purple are still active, leaving no slot for the next ring color.
- Stopping when the six petals and center smiley look clear, even though a cyan/purple arc or the final green 30 / orange 30 pair is still on the board.
Quick Tips for Colony Flow! Level 156 (spoiler-free)
- Start cyan 40, then purple 30, and give both perimeter groups a full travel beat.
- Bring yellow 35 and black 35 into the next free slots before flooding the red, green, and orange petal rows.
- Do not call the level finished when the center is empty; the cyan/purple side hooks and final green 30 / orange 30 stacks still have to reach the hole.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A yellow smiling face sits at the center of a six-petal wheel: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, and purple lobes are surrounded by cyan, purple, pink/red, green, orange, yellow, and dark concentric bands. One ant hole is below the frame and five white staging pads are empty. The opening stacks show yellow 35, purple 30, black 35, cyan 40; then orange 28, black 35, black 35, red 30; then black 30, purple 30, red 30, and orange 25.
- Goal
- Send cyan through the outer ring, purple and pink/red through the outer and inner bands, green and orange into their ring segments and lobes, yellow into the top/bottom petals and smiley face, and black into the separators, eyes, and mouth outline. The board is clear only after the last concentric arc and the small green-orange survivors disappear.
- Opening
- After a short empty pause, tap cyan 40 first. While its counter drops around the outer perimeter, tap purple 30 next. Only then queue the visible yellow 35 and dark 35 groups, keeping the first red, green, and orange refills for later free slots.
- Danger Zone
- Cyan and the dark separators share the perimeter route. Filling yellow petals or the pink/red center lobe before cyan opens the ring makes ants collect at the bottom hole and strands the outer arc. The five white pads are staging capacity, so wait for cyan/purple traffic before queuing every visible 30.
- Mechanics
- Concentric-ring and six-petal routing with a persistent yellow smiley center. The solve alternates perimeter colors and petal colors; the image remains recognizable while the player peels ring layers and leaves a rainbow arc for the final cleanup.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does cyan 40 go first in Colony Flow Level 156?
Cyan 40 starts the outer ring and creates the perimeter route. Purple 30 follows while cyan is moving; starting with a petal would leave the outer arc blocking the same hole.
When should yellow and black enter the smiley wheel?
Queue yellow 35 and the dark 35 groups after cyan and purple have begun to drain. Yellow handles the top/bottom petals and black opens the eye, mouth, and ring separators without flooding the center too early.
What remains after the wheel looks mostly empty?
The late rows still show black 8, yellow 9, black 32, red 26, pink 3, then purple 25, cyan 23, black 30, red 21, pink 1, plus green 30 and orange 30. Wait for the final arc and side hooks to clear.
