Level 212 presents a wavy striped pixel board framed by outer borders. Clear the outer border colors first to release keys and unlock padlocked boxes in the stack. Avoid tapping inner band colors before their outer protective layers peel away.

How to beat Colony Flow! Level 212 — full solution

  1. Tap the Light Blue 20 box in the front row, leftmost slot. Its ants clear the outer light blue border blocks, exposing the inner layers and yellow perimeter.
  2. Tap the Yellow 24 box in the second row, left, followed by the exposed Purple 20 box in the front row, right. Ants chip away the yellow borders and top-right purple edges while unlocking access to lower stack rows.
  3. Tap the Orange 25 box on the left stack and the Red 20 box in the center column as they become available. The ants strip the orange and red outer curves, releasing the green key embedded near the bottom.
  4. Tap the Pink 20 box and the Dark Purple 20 box to clear the dark purple and pink wave layers across the center of the board, freeing more central pixels.
  5. Tap the Green 15 box and remaining Yellow boxes from the center and bottom of the stack to eat away the green wave and remaining yellow ribbon segments.
  6. Tap the final Dark Purple and Purple boxes revealed at the bottom of the stack to carry away the remaining central purple and dark purple pixels, clearing the board entirely.

Moves that cost you the level

  • Tapping the padlocked or inner-color boxes before stripping the outer border → boxes occupy slots without any exposed targets and cause a slot jam.
  • Sending the Pink 20 box while pink blocks remain sealed behind red and orange → pink ants cannot reach targets, locking a slot until earlier layers peel away.

Quick tips for Level 212

  • Always match ant box selections to pixels on the exposed outermost borders first.
  • Track embedded keys in the pixel art; focus ants on surrounding blocks to free locked boxes early.
Board breakdown5 notes
Layout
A square board containing wavy rainbow-like pixel bands: Light Blue along borders, nested with Yellow, Orange, Red, Dark Purple, and Pink, with five open ant slots beneath.
Goal
Clear all pixel blocks across all color bands into the ant nest using the ant boxes provided in the stack.
Opening
Start with the Light Blue 20 box in the front row to clear the outermost border, quickly followed by the Yellow and Purple boxes to expose interior curves.
Trap
Tapping the Dark Purple 20 box too early while its central swirl is completely trapped behind the outer orange and red stripes.
Mechanic
Keys embedded inside the pixel grid must be freed by carrying away surrounding blocks to unlock padlocked boxes in the stack.

Level 212 questions

  • What should I tap first on Level 212?

    Tap the Light Blue 20 box in the front row left. Light blue forms the outermost exposed edge of the picture.

  • Why won't my locked boxes open in the stack?

    Locked boxes require their matching colored key to be freed from the pixel grid before they can be used.
