Colony Flow! level guide
Colony Flow! Level 471 Walkthrough
Clear the cat-on-cushion pixel-art by pacing the triple light-blue stack load, interleaving yellow clears between cool-color batches, and finishing the dark-gray outline without overflowing the buffer slots.

How to Solve Colony Flow! Level 471 — Full Solution
- Tap the white 35 stack (Row 1 Col 3). White ants clear the white grid squares at the bottom of the pixel art. Wait for the buffer to drain to at least 3 empty slots.
- Tap the red 30 stack (Row 1 Col 1). Red ants clear the pink/red cushion pixels at the base of the cat. Let the buffer stabilize.
- Tap the light-blue 40 stack (Row 2 Col 1). Light-blue ants begin clearing the large background on the left side. Monitor the buffer closely—this is a large batch.
- Tap the yellow 30 stack (Row 1 Col 2). Yellow ants clear the cat's body pixels, creating buffer breathing room before the next light-blue tap.
- Tap the light-blue 38 stack (Row 2 Col 2). More light-blue ants continue clearing the background. Wait for the buffer to drain before proceeding.
- Tap the dark-gray 30 stack (Row 2 Col 4). Dark-gray ants clear the cat's outline and tail pixels.
- Tap the remaining yellow stacks (Row 1 Col 4, Row 3 Col 1) to finish the cat's body. Interleave with buffer draining between taps.
- Tap the light-blue 25 stack (Row 3 Col 4) to clear the remaining background on the right side.
- Tap the final dark-gray 30 and light-blue 38 stacks (Row 3 Col 2, Row 3 Col 3) to clear the last outline and background pixels. The cat is fully revealed when the board is empty.
Colors in this level:
White, Red, Light-blue, Yellow, Dark-gray
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Tapping all three light-blue stacks (40, 38, 25) in sequence overflows the buffer slots and stalls all ants.
- Clearing the dark-gray stacks before the yellow body pixels leaves the outline blocking the cushion reveal.
- Tapping the red 30 stack after the light-blue background is partially cleared wastes buffer space on a small color batch.
Quick Tips for Colony Flow! Level 471 (spoiler-free)
- Tap white 35 first to clear the grid border and open buffer space.
- Never tap all three light-blue stacks back-to-back—interleave yellow or dark-gray clears.
- The red 30 stack clears the cushion early; clear it before the light-blue background covers the area.
- Save the Row 3 light-blue 25 stack for late when the buffer has room to absorb it.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- A pixel-art cat (yellow body, dark-gray outline, red nose) sitting on a pink/red cushion 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 red 30, yellow 30, white 35, yellow 30; Row 2 has light-blue 40, light-blue 38, yellow 30, dark-gray 30; Row 3 has yellow 32, dark-gray 30, light-blue 38, light-blue 25.
- Goal
- Clear every colored cube from the board by routing ants through the matching-color holes. The pixel-art cat on a cushion is fully revealed once all cubes are removed. No stacks are locked, but the triple light-blue load (103 total cubes) demands careful pacing.
- Opening
- Start with the white 35 stack (Row 1 Col 3) to clear the white grid border at the bottom of the pixel art. Then tap the red 30 stack (Row 1 Col 1) to begin clearing the pink cushion. Follow with the light-blue 40 stack (Row 2 Col 1) to start the large background region.
- Danger Zone
- The three light-blue stacks (40, 38, 25) total 103 cubes. Tapping them in rapid succession floods the buffer slots with light-blue ants and stalls the board. Always interleave a yellow or dark-gray clear between light-blue taps to let the buffer drain.
- Mechanics
- A high-density multi-color board with no locked stacks but a heavy light-blue load requiring paced tapping. The pixel-art cat has four separate yellow stacks (30, 30, 30, 32) spread across all three rows, demanding a staged yellow-clearing approach between cool-color batches.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main danger on Level 471?
The three light-blue stacks total 103 cubes. Tapping them without interleaving other colors overflows the buffer slots and stalls the board.
How many yellow stacks are there?
Four yellow stacks (30, 30, 30, 32) are spread across all three rows. Clear them in stages between cool-color batches to keep the buffer flowing.
What order should I clear the colors?
Start with white and red, then alternate between light-blue and yellow/dark-gray. Save the Row 3 light-blue 25 for late when the buffer has room.
