How to Solve Colony Flow! Level 466 — Full Solution
- Tap the light-blue 35 stack (Row 1 Col 1). Light-blue ants clear the bottom edge of the cake grid. Wait until the stack reaches ~15 before proceeding.
- Tap the green 35 stack (Row 1 Col 5). Green ants clear the green frosting at the top of the cake. Let the buffer slots drain to at least 2 empty before the next tap.
- Tap the yellow 35 stack (Row 1 Col 2). Yellow ants clear the yellow detail pixels inside the green frosting region.
- Tap the pink 28 stack (Row 1 Col 4). Pink ants clear the pink flower decorations in the center of the cake. This unlocks the yellow-lock stack (Row 2 Col 2).
- Tap the now-unlocked yellow-lock stack (Row 2 Col 2). Additional yellow ants finish any remaining yellow pixels.
- Tap the brown 40 stack (Row 2 Col 3). Brown ants clear the brown chocolate layer beneath the pink flowers.
- Tap the light-blue 36 stack (Row 2 Col 1). Light-blue ants clear remaining light-blue border pixels.
- Tap the dark-gray 45 stack (Row 1 Col 3). Dark-gray ants clear the large dark-gray chocolate region at the bottom-right of the cake. Monitor the buffer slots closely—this is the largest batch.
- Tap the remaining light-blue 35 stacks (Row 2 Col 4, Row 3 Col 1) and pink 30 stack (Row 3 Col 2) to clear leftover pixels.
- Tap the green 20 stack (Row 3 Col 3) and the now-unlocked blue-lock stack (Row 3 Col 4) to finish the final green and light-blue border pixels. The cake is fully revealed when the board is empty.
Colors in this level:
Light-blue, Yellow, Dark-gray, Pink, Green, Brown
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Tapping the dark-gray 45 stack while more than 3 buffer slots are occupied overflows the slots and stalls all ants.
- Unlocking the yellow-lock stack before clearing the pink 28 stack wastes a buffer slot on a blocked color.
- Clearing the brown 40 stack before the pink 28 stack leaves pink ants without a route through the center of the cake.
Quick Tips for Colony Flow! Level 466 (spoiler-free)
- Tap light-blue 35 first to clear the bottom edge of the cake grid.
- Delay the dark-gray 45 stack until at least 3 buffer slots are empty.
- The yellow-lock stack (Row 2 Col 2) unlocks after clearing the pink 28 stack.
- Save the blue-lock stack (Row 3 Col 4) for the final green and light-blue border pixels.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A large cake pixel-art sits in the center, with green frosting, pink flower decorations, brown chocolate layers, and white cream details on a light blue grid. Below the board is a single brown ant hole with 5 empty white buffer slots. The bottom field has 12 colored block stacks in 3 rows: Row 1 has light-blue 35, yellow 35, dark-gray 45, pink 28, green 35; Row 2 has light-blue 36, yellow-lock (blocked), brown 40, light-blue 35; Row 3 has light-blue 35, pink 30, green 20, blue-lock (blocked).
- Goal
- Clear every colored cube from the board by routing ants through the matching-color holes. The pixel-art cake is fully revealed once all cubes are removed. Two stacks are initially locked and require adjacent clears before they can be tapped.
- Opening
- Start with the light-blue 35 stack at the top-left to clear the bottom edge of the cake grid. Then tap the green 35 stack at the top-right to clear the green frosting region at the top of the cake. Follow with the yellow 35 stack to clear the yellow detail pixels inside the green frosting.
- Danger Zone
- The dark-gray 45 stack is the largest single stack and must be managed carefully. If tapped too early while the buffer slots are nearly full, its large ant volume overwhelms the slots and stalls the board. Delay this stack until at least 3 other colors are partially cleared.
- Mechanics
- A pixel-art completion board with two locked stacks (yellow-lock and blue-lock) that cannot be tapped until surrounding cubes are cleared. The solve moves from the outer light-blue and green regions inward through pink and brown, with the large dark-gray batch saved for late.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main danger on Level 466?
The dark-gray 45 stack has the largest ant count. Tapping it while the buffer slots are nearly full will overflow the slots and stall the entire board.
How do I unlock the yellow-lock stack?
Clear the pink 28 stack (Row 1 Col 4) first. Once the pink ants have cleared enough of the center, the yellow-lock stack at Row 2 Col 2 becomes available.
What order should I clear the colors?
Start with light-blue and green on the outer edges, then work inward through yellow, pink, and brown. Save dark-gray for last after at least 3 buffer slots are empty.
