Colony Flow! level guide
Colony Flow! Level 504 Walkthrough
A white cat perches on a yellow crescent moon against a starry night sky in Level 504 — six colors plus a mystery stack must route through a single brown hole, with yellow moon/star clearing and dark blue sky dispatch competing for the five buffer slots.

How to Solve Colony Flow! Level 504 — Full Solution
- Tap yellow (33) in Row 1, position 1 — yellow ants route through the brown hole to perimeter yellow holes, clearing the crescent moon and star sections.
- Tap dark blue (45) in Row 1, position 2 — dark blue ants dispatch to perimeter blue holes, clearing the night sky background.
- Tap yellow (40) in Row 1, position 3 — continue clearing moon and star pixels with a second batch of yellow ants.
- As Row 1 depletes, tap dark blue (46) from Row 2 to clear sky sections blocking the moon's edge.
- Tap orange (35) from Row 2, position 2 to clear the cat's facial features and moon accent details.
- Tap the remaining yellow stacks (40, 40) from Row 2 to finish clearing the moon and star regions.
- Clear dark blue (35) from Row 2, position 4 to complete the night sky background.
- Tap pink (33) from Row 3 to clear body accent details, then light blue (30) for sky highlights.
- Tap gray (27) and mystery (?) from Row 3 only after all yellow and dark blue stacks are depleted.
- Clear remaining orange (38) and hidden-row stacks (gray 35, dark ?, gray ?) as the cat pixel art is fully erased and the counter reaches zero.
Colors in this level:
Yellow, Dark blue, Orange, Pink, Light blue, Gray, Mystery
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Tapping dark blue (46) before the active-row yellow stacks (33, 40) are depleted fills buffer slots with blue cubes, blocking the moon clearing route.
- Tapping the mystery stack (?) early floods a buffer slot with an unknown color, creating a stall that forces a restart.
- Sending orange (35) into the brown hole while dark blue (46) ants are still walking the perimeter clogs the sky route and strands orange ants on the cat's accent cells.
Quick Tips for Colony Flow! Level 504 (spoiler-free)
- Prioritize yellow stacks throughout — the moon and stars are the largest pixel region requiring sustained dispatch.
- Keep the mystery stack untouched until all visible colors are routed — its unpredictable color can flood a critical buffer slot.
- Dispatch one color at a time through the brown hole to avoid perimeter traffic congestion.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Cat-on-crescent-moon pixel art with white/cream cat on large yellow crescent moon against dark blue/purple starry night sky, golden stars, treasure chest below. Single brown hole below pixel art. Row 1 (active): yellow 33, dark blue 45, yellow 40, empty, empty. Row 2: dark blue 46, orange 35, yellow 40, dark blue 35, yellow 40. Row 3: pink 33, light blue 30, gray 27, mystery (?), orange 38. Row 4 (hidden): gray 35, dark ?, gray ?, dark ?, dark ?. White counter starts at 135.
- Goal
- Route all colored cubes into matching perimeter holes to erase the cat-on-crescent-moon pixel art. Yellow clears moon and stars (largest region), dark blue clears night sky, white/cream clears cat body, pink and orange clear accents, light blue clears sky highlights.
- Opening
- Tap yellow (33) in Row 1, position 1 to dispatch yellow ants through the brown hole to perimeter yellow holes, clearing moon and star sections.
- Danger Zone
- Dark blue stacks are large and numerous (46, 35, 35) — tapping them before yellow stacks deplete fills buffer slots and blocks moon clearing. The mystery stack (?) in Row 3 must not be tapped early. Single brown hole chokepoint causes perimeter congestion if multiple colors dispatch simultaneously.
- Mechanics
- Six-color routing board (yellow, dark blue, orange, pink, light blue, gray/mystery) through single brown hole. Five active buffer slots. Vertical cascade layout. Cat-on-crescent-moon pixel art with dominant yellow moon/star area.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why start with yellow (33) instead of the larger dark blue (45)?
Yellow is the dominant pixel color (moon and stars), and starting with the smaller yellow stack opens the moon clearing route faster. Dark blue is larger and should be dispatched second to avoid filling buffer slots before yellow routing begins.
What happens if the mystery stack is tapped early?
The mystery stack releases an unknown color that can fill a buffer slot needed for the next color batch, creating a stall that forces a restart.
When should the hidden-row stacks be accessed?
Only after the active-row and Row 2 stacks are cleared. The hidden stacks (gray 35, dark ?, gray ?) appear as the board clears and should be handled last.
