Colony Flow! level guide
Colony Flow! Level 248 Walkthrough
Level 248 features a multi-layered rainbow heart with concentric colour bands. The key is working inward by peeling the red and orange outer rings before deploying buried colours. Avoid tapping pink or purple boxes early, as they will jam the slots while their blocks remain inaccessible.

How to beat Colony Flow! Level 248 — full solution
- Allow the Red 31 box in the first slot to peel the outermost red perimeter of the heart, then tap Orange 30 from the stack. This clears the red border and begins stripping the outer orange edge.
- Tap Cyan 25, Blue 35, and Purple 26 in any order as the outer shell thins, followed by Green 28. The ants remove exposed orange and green border blocks, bringing Green down to 8 and Blue to 33.
- Tap Hot Pink 25, Pink 28, Yellow 26, and Green 30 in any order to strip the yellow and green outer rings. The heart's bottom V-shape and outer contours disappear, freeing up slots as boxes deplete.
- Tap Orange 36, Yellow 30, Purple 26, and Pink 26 in any order. The ants strip the exposed intermediate layers, exposing the inner cyan and purple heart shape while Orange counts down to 8.
- Deploy Cyan 26, Purple 31, and Pink 25 into free slots, followed by Green 30. These boxes target the center arch and inner bands of the heart, reducing the structure to the upper rainbow arches.
- Tap Orange 32, Blue 35, and Purple 30 in any order to attack the top arched wings. The purple and blue segments along the upper curves are cleared, exposing the final yellow and green blocks.
- Tap Yellow 30 and Blue 36 in any order to carry off the remaining upper perimeter blocks. The final green and yellow ants carry the last pieces into the nest to complete the level.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping the Hot Pink 25 box on the opening board -> Hot pink is buried deep inside the heart's center, leaving the box stalled in a slot with no exposed blocks to carry.
- Tapping Purple 26 from the front row before the outer rings are cleared -> Purple blocks have no outer exposure early on, locking a vital slot.
Quick tips for Level 248
- Always prioritise boxes whose colours currently form the outer contour of the heart.
- Keep at least two slots open to handle transitional colours when stripping a new inner ring.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- The board features a large concentric rainbow heart pixel image above a single nest hole, five ant slots, and a four-column stack of numbered ant boxes.
- Goal
- Clear all coloured blocks comprising the concentric heart pixel art by deploying ant boxes into the five slots.
- Opening
- Red 31 starts in the first slot to strip the outermost red perimeter, followed by tapping Orange 30 and Cyan 25 from the front row as the red shell peels away.
- Trap
- Tapping Hot Pink 25 or Purple 26 in the front row too early. Both colours are buried deep inside the heart's concentric layers and will remain stuck in a slot until outer bands are stripped.
- Mechanic
- Layers peel inward from the exterior; ants can only target exposed blocks on the outside perimeter of the heart shape.
Level 248 questions
-
What should I tap first in Colony Flow! Level 248?
Let the initial Red 31 box clear the outer red perimeter, then tap the Orange 30 and outer yellow/cyan boxes as their layers become exposed.
-
Why are my purple and pink ant boxes stuck in Level 248?
Purple and pink blocks sit in the heart's core. Boxes of those colours cannot collect blocks until the surrounding red, orange, yellow, and green rings are removed.
