How to beat Colony Flow! Level 225 — full solution

  1. Tap the front row Light Blue 20, Cyan 20, and Black 20 boxes from the stack. Ants strip away the outer sky background and the lower border around the pig's feet, opening access to row 2.
  2. Deploy the Yellow and Black boxes into free slots as the lower cloak and edges clear. Ants carry away sections of the yellow crown and lower cape lining, exposing the red fabric.
  3. Send the available Red 13 and Pink boxes to collect the red cape and lower jaw line. This cuts deep into the pig's torso and begins uncovering the white collar trim.
  4. Tap the Light Blue and Cyan boxes revealed in the upper stack to strip the top corners of the sky. This exposes the outer ears and the top jewels of the crown, freeing the yellow key embedded in the art.
  5. With the yellow key collected, open the unlocked Yellow padlock box and deploy the remaining Pink boxes. Ants chew through the cheeks, ears, and snout, leaving only the central face details.
  6. Release the final Blue, Cyan, and Black boxes in any order. Ants carry off the remaining eyes, nostrils, and residual background tiles to clear the board.

Moves that cost you the level

  • Tapping the Pink 20 box too early while the face is still shielded by black outlines → pink ants find no targets and clog a slot indefinitely.
  • Filling all five slots with background colours before collecting the yellow key → locks the stack and causes a gridlock when no matching exposed tiles remain.

Quick tips for Level 225

  • Always prioritize removing the outer sky tiles first so that every part of the pig's outline becomes reachable.
  • Keep at least one slot open whenever locked padlock boxes are near the front of the stack.
Board breakdown5 notes
Layout
The pixel picture depicts a crowned pig wearing a royal cape against a cyan sky, positioned above a single ant nest hole and a five-slot holding bay. Below sits a 4-column stack of numbered ant boxes.
Goal
Remove all pixel blocks from the picture by tapping matching ant boxes until every count reaches zero and the entire canvas is clear.
Opening
Start by using the Black and Light Blue boxes already on the front row; their blocks form the exterior border and sky, so ants immediately start harvesting without stalling.
Trap
The inner pink face tiles are locked behind thick black outlines; sending pink boxes early will jam the slots while waiting for outline removal.
Mechanic
Padlocked boxes in the stack cannot be selected until their matching coloured key is freed from the pixel grid by carrying away surrounding tiles.

Level 225 questions

  • How do I unlock the yellow padlock box in Level 225?

    Clear the yellow crown tiles near the top of the pig's head to free the embedded yellow key, which automatically opens the padlock.

  • Why are my pink ants not picking up blocks?

    Pink blocks in the pig's face are surrounded by black border tiles. Remove the black tiles first to expose the pink edges.
