Colony Flow! Level 198 Walkthrough
Level 198 features a pixel-art fox in the snow with a locked middle slot. Release cyan and white boxes first to strip the perimeter snow and reveal the blue key. Unlocking the fifth slot provides the necessary buffer to dismantle the dense orange tail.

How to beat Colony Flow! Level 198 — full solution
- Deploy Cyan 43, Cyan 44, and White 45 into the open slots. Cyan ants strip the snowflake and upper border while White 45 clears the snow ground beneath the fox, freeing its slot.
- Tap White 30 (front row, left) and Cyan 40 (front row, middle). White 30 removes the remaining ground snow, and Cyan 40 strips the top-right background, uncovering Light Green 2.
- Tap Light Green 2 (front row, middle) and Orange 25 (front row, right). Light Green 2 strips the green scarf, exposing the blue key and the fox's body, while Orange 25 begins clearing the lower torso.
- Tap White 35 and Orange 25 as slots clear. White ants strip the white fur along the fox's chest and muzzle, collecting the blue key to unlock the middle slot, while Orange ants clear the lower body.
- Tap Cyan 50 and White 30 into the newly freed slots. These finish clearing the fox's head, ears, and surrounding sky blocks, opening full access to the remaining tail.
- Tap Cyan 34 (front row, left) and Cyan 27. Cyan ants strip the upper-left snowflake remnants and surrounding background, exposing the entire orange tail.
- Tap Cyan 35 and Orange 40 into the open slots. Orange ants begin dismantling the large orange tail while Cyan ants reduce the remaining upper sky blocks.
- Tap Orange 20 and the final Cyan 35. Orange ants carry off the tip of the tail, followed by Cyan ants clearing the last background pixels down to Cyan 1 as the board clears.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping Orange 25 before stripping the white base → orange body blocks remain blocked behind white snow, stalling the orange box in an active slot.
- Ignoring the blue key on the fox's chest → the middle slot remains locked behind a padlock, restricting buffer space when handling high-count tail boxes.
Quick tips for Level 198
- Prioritize clearing outer layer colors like white ground snow and cyan sky edges before attacking inner animal features.
- Free embedded keys as early as possible to expand slot capacity before handling dense pixel clusters.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- A pixel art fox wearing a green scarf sits in a snowy field against a cyan winter sky. Below the picture are five slots (the middle one locked with a blue padlock) and a tiered stack of ant boxes.
- Goal
- Clear all blocks from the pixel picture by deploying ant boxes into the slots. No timer is present.
- Opening
- Start with Cyan 43, Cyan 44, and White 45 to clear the outer border and bottom snowline, opening immediate access to the scarf.
- Trap
- Tapping Orange boxes before clearing the green scarf and white fur around the blue key. Without the key, the middle slot stays locked, leaving only four active slots to handle high-count tail and sky boxes.
- Mechanic
- Locked slot: the middle slot is sealed by a blue padlock until ants excavate the blue key embedded in the fox's chest.
