Colony Flow! Level 162 Walkthrough
Colony Flow Level 162 breaks a high-count blue floral cluster by opening the paired cyan routes, then alternating purple, green, brown, orange, and late cyan perimeter traffic without losing a buffer to the 117/104 stacks.

How to Solve Colony Flow! Level 162 — Full Solution
- Tap cyan 49, cyan 46, blue-purple 71, green 80, and brown 80 in the opening order. Wait for the first cyan ants to climb the left edge and for the other colors to leave the central hole.
- Continue the visible falling row through cyan 42/26, purple 52, green 38, and brown 55, keeping the 90/104/117 cards out of the full buffer row.
- When a slot returns, use cyan 90 and orange 25, then wait for the right-hand rim route before adding dark 117.
- Route pale-cyan 104, purple 40, orange 20, and orange 25 as the active counters fall; let the pale-cyan lane separate the lower green strip from the central flowers.
- Use the mid-board transitions around cyan 78/26/93, green 5, brown 3, then cyan 67, orange 7, pale-cyan 51, green 2, and brown 3, pausing when cyan and orange ants crowd the right edge.
- After the cluster breaks apart, clear cyan 45, purple 47, pale-cyan 25, purple 38, and orange 20, then follow cyan 43, dark 36, pale-cyan 22, purple 27, and orange 9.
- Run the final mixed route cyan 39, dark 19, pale-cyan 15, purple 11, then cyan 23, pale-cyan 9, purple 28, and orange 22. Leave one slot open during the bottom perimeter pass.
- Wait for the remaining cyan and purple fragments to complete the outer loop; the empty frame must transition to the Colony Flow victory screen.
Colors in this level:
Cyan, Blue, Purple, Green, Brown, Orange, White
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Opening dark 117 or pale-cyan 104 before the paired cyan opening has crossed the lower edge, which fills the five buffers with long routes.
- Tapping the largest visible card in isolation instead of following the cyan 49/46, purple 71, green 80, brown 80 opening queue.
- Stopping when the floral cluster has separated while the top orange bars or dark/cyan perimeter fragments are still active.
Quick Tips for Colony Flow! Level 162 (spoiler-free)
- Run cyan 49/46 first, then blue-purple 71, green 80, and brown 80; the paired cyan lanes create the safe perimeter.
- Keep one white buffer free before the dark 117 and pale-cyan 104 groups enter the shared lower return lane.
- Follow the late cyan 23, pale-cyan 9, purple 28, and orange 22 groups until the empty frame and victory transition appear.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A dense blue/cyan floral cluster fills the frame: pale-cyan top blossoms and lower-right strip, dark-purple shadow mass, green stems/leaves, brown trunk pieces, and an orange outer rim. The opening queue is cyan 49, cyan 46, blue-purple 71, green 80, and brown 80; deeper stacks include cyan 90, orange 25, dark 117, pale-cyan 104, purple 40, orange 20/25, and dark 75.
- Goal
- Route cyan into the pale flowers, right strip, and outer frame; purple/dark into the shadow mass; green into stems and leaves; brown into the trunk; and orange into the rim and top bars. Clear only after the separated cyan, purple, orange, and dark fragments finish their perimeter trips.
- Opening
- Use the five-color opening queue cyan 49, cyan 46, blue-purple 71, green 80, then brown 80. Let the paired cyan lanes cross the left and lower edges before opening cyan 90, pale-cyan 104, or dark 117.
- Danger Zone
- The large dark 117 and pale-cyan 104 stacks compete for the same lower return lane. Adding either while the first five slots are occupied makes ants collect below the floral cluster and hides the next route.
- Mechanics
- High-count floral-cluster routing with phased perimeter traffic: cyan opens the shell, purple/green/brown remove the central mass, and late cyan/dark/orange groups clean the separated fragments.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which stacks open Colony Flow Level 162?
The video starts with cyan 49, cyan 46, blue-purple 71, green 80, and brown 80. Let that five-color queue travel before the 90/104/117 stacks.
Why should dark 117 wait?
Dark 117 uses the same lower return lane as the first cyan and green traffic. It is a long shadow route, so opening it before a buffer clears blocks the next color.
What finishes the floral cluster?
The late route includes cyan 39, dark 19, pale-cyan 15, purple 11, then cyan 23, pale-cyan 9, purple 28, and orange 22 before the empty-frame transition.
