Colony Flow! Level 97 Walkthrough
Colony Flow Level 97 is a four-counter emblem board where the numbered corner panels, the blue-white center diamond, and the green-yellow side diamond all share linked routes, so the early magenta, yellow, and dark border waves have to cut the counters down before the bright accent colors flood the connectors.

How to Solve Colony Flow! Level 97 — Full Solution
- Tap the magenta 25 opener so the lower-right framed counter and its adjacent border begin shrinking first.
- Send the yellow 18 wave next to start the heavy lower-left counter panel, then route a dark border stack so the center diamond gets one clean side.
- Bring in the first white or cyan center-diamond wave only after both lower counters are moving, then use the green and orange support waves to open the side diamond.
- Finish by draining the late purple, cyan, and small-number cleanup stacks once the corner panels are already below their opening values and the center diamond is mostly cleared.
Colors in this level:
Pink, Yellow, Black, White, Purple, Green, Cyan, Red, Orange, Blue
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Opening the big cyan or purple accent waves before the 108 and 99 corner panels have started dropping, which traps the counters behind decorative traffic.
- Ignoring the dark border wave until late, which leaves the center diamond and the lower-left side diamond fighting over the same connector.
Quick Tips for Colony Flow! Level 97 (spoiler-free)
- Think of the board as counters first, decorations second. The numbered corner panels have to start dropping before the bright cyan and purple accents use the same bridges.
- Use one dark border wave early. It stabilizes the center diamond and keeps the lower-left and lower-right counters from fighting over the same connector.
- Think in chain clears. The best move is the one that sets up the next two moves, not just the quickest current match.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The board is a jeweled, four-panel emblem with framed counters in each corner, a large blue-white diamond in the middle, and a second green-yellow diamond on the lower-left. The active row and lower grid mix pink, yellow, black, white, purple, green, and cyan waves while the numbered corner panels count down through the run.
- Goal
- Reduce the corner counters and free the central diamond routes before the later purple, cyan, and lime accents try to cross the same frame connections.
- Opening
- Start with the magenta 25 wave from the active row, then the yellow 18 wave, then one dark border stack so the lower-right and lower-left counters begin shrinking before the center diamonds clear.
- Danger Zone
- The danger is firing the large cyan and purple accent waves before the bottom-left 108 panel and the central diamond have already started collapsing. Those bright fills share the same bridges and can trap the counter panels at high values.
- Mechanics
- Level 97 is a counter board instead of a simple portrait. The four framed number panels, the middle diamond, and the lower-left green-yellow diamond all compete for the same connecting lanes, so the run is about reducing the panels in the right order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I reduce first in Colony Flow Level 97?
Start the magenta 25 and yellow 18 waves first so the lower-right and lower-left counter panels begin dropping before the decorative accent colors arrive.
Why does the center diamond stall in Level 97?
The center diamond shares bridges with the numbered corner panels. If the bright cyan or purple accents go first, the counters still occupy the connectors and the middle cannot settle.
