How to beat Colony Flow! Level 182 — full solution
- With Purple 20 already working in slot 1, tap Dark Purple 21 (row 1, col 1) and Dark Purple 20 (row 1, col 2), then tap the linked Green 50 (row 1, col 3) and Purple 25 (row 2, col 4) pair. They strip exposed dark purple perimeter tiles and outer green foliage.
- Tap Green 46 (row 1, col 4) to clear remaining edge foliage, then release Brown 21 and Brown 29 as they emerge. Their brown ants target and break down the two large brown obstacle counters inside the scene.
- Tap Dark Purple 50 (row 1, col 1) to clear deep night sky tiles, then tap the linked Light Green 35 and Cyan 45 pair. This peels back foliage layers and reveals inner light blue outlines on the sleeping cat.
- Tap White 20 and White 50 from the left column to chip away at the cat's body, then tap Light Blue 40 and Light Blue 35 to remove the blue shading along the cat's underside.
- Tap the linked Yellow 40 and Light Green 30 pair to work on the yellow crescent moon and inner leaves, then send White 45 and White 2 into the slots to dissolve the cat's torso.
- Collect the red key from the cleared picture to unlock Red 20 and Brown 1, then tap Cyan 6 and Cyan 43 to clear bright cyan accents around the cat.
- Tap Light Green 13 and Light Green 21 to strip the remaining canopy foliage, then tap Yellow 31 and Yellow 36 to remove the rest of the yellow moon and stars.
- Tap White 17, White 35, and White 36 to strip the cat's face and paws, followed by White 30, White 25, and White 3 to completely eliminate the white cat.
- Tap Light Green 1 and Yellow 6 to sweep up the final leaf and star accents, then tap Green 30 and Green 50 to strip the remaining green patch in the upper-right corner.
- Tap Cyan 25, Purple 40, and the final Purple 25 to clear the lingering purple night sky blocks in the upper-right corner, winning the level.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping White 50 while the perimeter is intact → the cat's white body is fully enclosed by sky and branch pixels, so White 50 clogs a slot indefinitely.
- Triggering the linked Yellow 40 and Light Green 30 pair too early → the yellow moon is shielded by green foliage, leaving the yellow box stuck in a slot.
Quick tips for Level 182
- Pay attention to linked pairs with diagonal connector bars; ensure at least two empty slots are available before tapping either box.
- Clear surrounding foliage to free the red padlock key before you need the brown and red boxes beneath it.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- A rectangular pixel picture at the top shows a sleeping white cat resting on a branch beneath a night sky with a yellow moon and stars. Two numbered brown counter blocks sit in the lower-right area of the artwork, above five empty slots and a four-column stack of ant boxes.
- Goal
- Clear all coloured blocks from the pixel canvas into the ant nest using the ant boxes provided in the stack.
- Opening
- Purple 20 starts active in the first slot; tap Dark Purple 21 and Dark Purple 20 along with the linked Green 50 and Purple 25 pair to clear the outer perimeter safely.
- Trap
- Releasing the White 50 or Yellow 50 boxes before the surrounding foliage and sky blocks are stripped will trap them in the slots without any reachable blocks.
- Mechanic
- Linked boxes share a coloured bar and always enter the slots together, requiring two vacant slots simultaneously. Padlocked boxes stay inert until their matching key is freed from the picture.
Level 182 questions
-
How do I remove the 100 and 200 brown blocks in Level 182?
Clear the outer purple and green border blocks first to reveal brown boxes in the stack; tapping them sends brown ants to break down the numbered counter blocks.
