How to Solve Colony Flow! Level 276 — Full Solution
- Tap the connected dark-purple 45 and dark-purple 50 outline cards, then let their ants clear a bay.
- Drain the exposed cyan 55, cyan 50 and cyan 45 route from the front row, waiting whenever the buffer is full.
- Continue through cyan 50, pale cyan/white 14, cyan 55, cyan 55 and cyan 67 as each card becomes exposed.
- Use a returned bay for the next dark-purple outline group, then alternate it with the next cyan wave instead of starting both long routes at once.
- Work the middle dark-purple groups around 37/43, 27/37, 22/35 and 12/30 with the cyan groups around 35/40, 44/19/24 and 27/2/7.
- When yellow is exposed, clear the yellow 25/25 and 8/18/35 face sections before launching the orange mouth route.
- Route the orange mouth and cheek cards, then take the dark-purple 2/25 and 9 outline fragments revealed beside them.
- Tap the white tooth block and red 3 accent after the surrounding yellow/orange traffic has reduced, keeping one bay open for the next cyan card.
- Finish the small yellow, orange, white, cyan and dark-purple tails; wait for the board to empty and the victory transition to appear.
Colors in this level:
Cyan, Dark purple, Yellow, Orange, White, Red
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Starting a second long cyan route while all five bays still contain the first field wave hides the face-color cards behind a full buffer.
- Using the visible dark-purple 8 or red 3 too early can consume the return bay needed for the next cyan or yellow wave.
Quick Tips for Colony Flow! Level 276 (spoiler-free)
- Treat dark-purple 45/50 and the first cyan wave as one opening sequence; wait for a returned bay before adding another long route.
- Follow the exposed cyan front card through 50/55/55/67 instead of jumping to the visible yellow 35 or dark-purple 8.
- Do not stop when the face is recognizable: the white teeth, red 3 accent and tiny cyan/dark-purple edge cards still have to leave.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Portrait yellow smiling face on a cyan field with a dark-purple outline, orange mouth and cheek blocks, white teeth, and small red details. The opening row shows cyan 55, cyan 50, cyan 45 and dark-purple 45/50; the next row has cyan 50, pale cyan/white 14, cyan 55, cyan 55 and cyan 67; lower cards include red 3, dark-purple 8, yellow 35, cyan 40 and white 15.
- Goal
- Remove the cyan background, then clear the yellow face, orange mouth and cheek, white tooth block, red accent and every remaining dark-purple outline fragment until the board is blank.
- Opening
- Tap the connected dark-purple 45 and 50 outline cards first, then follow the exposed cyan 55/50/45 wave and the next cyan 50/55/55/67 cards as buffers return.
- Danger Zone
- The cyan field fills all five bays quickly. Starting another long cyan or dark-purple route before a bay returns can bury the yellow, orange and white face fragments.
- Mechanics
- A long cyan background wave is interleaved with short dark-purple outline cards; after the field drains, yellow, orange, white and red face fragments arrive in separate waves with live counters that require waits.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the safe opener for Level 276?
Tap dark-purple 45 and 50 first, then follow the exposed cyan 55/50/45 chain. Wait for a bay to return before taking the next long cyan group.
When is the yellow face route ready?
Start yellow only after the first cyan field wave has thinned and a bay returns; then clear the orange mouth, white teeth and red accent in the newly exposed order.
