How to beat Colony Flow! Level 253 — full solution
- Send the Orange 30 box and Black 30 box from the front row into the slots, followed by an additional Orange box and White box. This initiates clearing along the bottom paws and lower edges of both cats.
- Tap the Black 25 box, Black 12 box, and White 34 box from the available front stack into the slots. These strip away the lower fur on the black cat and adjacent white paws, freeing up two slots.
- Send the White 21 box, White 22 box, Black 26 box, and Black 30 box into the open slots. This dismantles the lower torsos of both cats and exposes the central Red 20 gift box.
- Deploy the Orange 3 box, Orange 6 box, Red 9 box, and Black 27 box into the active slots. The ants carry away the orange cat's midsection and begin chipping away at the red hearts and central red box.
- Tap the Black 31 box, White 7 box, Red 16 box, and White 21 box into the slots. This strips the cats' faces, white muzzles, and reduces the central gift box count down to 5.
- Send the White 30 box, White 40 box, and final Orange box into the slots. These clear the cats' ears and the remaining topmost pixels to complete the picture.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping a Red box before the central gift box or top hearts are exposed → Red ants have no reachable blocks and lock a slot for multiple waves.
- Filling slots with multiple White boxes while only orange and black borders are exposed → White boxes stall and reduce buffer space.
Quick tips for Level 253
- Alternate evenly between orange and black boxes early on to uncover both cats simultaneously.
- Hold red boxes until the surrounding fur layers expose the red hearts or center box.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- The pixel board depicts an orange cat and a black cat side-by-side with red hearts above them and a numbered red gift box between their chests. Five slots sit above a four-column stack.
- Goal
- Remove every block of the two cats, floating hearts, and central 20-count gift box using ant boxes from the stack.
- Opening
- Send the front Orange 30 and Black 30 boxes directly into the slots to start clearing the bottom borders of both cats.
- Trap
- The central Red 20 box and top Red hearts are encased by the cats' bodies; deploying Red boxes before uncovering red edges stalls slots.
- Mechanic
- The central gift box functions as a multi-hit block displaying a countdown number that must reach zero before it disappears.

How do I clear the central box with the number 20 in Level 253?
Peel away the orange, black, and white fur around the cats' chests first to expose the red border of the box, then send Red ant boxes to reduce its count to zero.
