How to beat Colony Flow! Level 269 — full solution
- Tap the White 38 box, White 34 box, and White 35 box from the front row into the first three slots. They send ants to strip the outer White background border of the picture.
- Tap the Dark Green 30 box from row 2, middle, and the Brown 36 box that is linked to the Brown 35 box in row 3. Both Brown boxes slide forward with Dark Green to begin peeling the bag's neck tie and outline.
- Tap the Cyan 32 box from row 2, right, into the newly opened slot. Its ants start gathering the light blue water pixels from the lower body of the bag as White clears away.
- Tap the Dark Green 25 box and Black 16 box revealed in the stack. They finish off the bag tie and start gathering the fish outline and bag details.
- Tap the Cyan 30 box and Yellow 19 box from the front stack once the bag wall is breached. The ants collect the inner water and goldfish body simultaneously.
- Tap the remaining White 35 boxes, Cyan 36 box, and Light Green 32 box from the rear rows to dismantle the bottom edges and remaining water.
- Tap the final White boxes and the linked Brown boxes from the rear stack as they surface to finish clearing the tied knot at the top and conclude the level.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping the Yellow 19 box before the Cyan water and Dark Green outline are cleared → the yellow goldfish is completely enclosed, so the Yellow box sits idle in a slot and blocks traffic.
- Tapping the linked Brown 36 and Brown 35 pair without at least two empty slots → linked boxes require two free slots simultaneously or the tap will fail.
Quick tips for Level 269
- Work from the outer White boundary inward so inner colours like Cyan and Yellow have exposed surfaces before their boxes are summoned.
- Linked boxes take up two slots at the exact same moment; make sure two slots are completely empty before tapping either one.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- The pixel picture depicts a yellow goldfish inside a water bag tied with a green ribbon and brown knot. Under the picture are two nests, five queue slots, and a visible stack of at least 15 coloured boxes.
- Goal
- Clear all coloured blocks making up the goldfish and bag picture by dispatching ants from matching boxes.
- Opening
- Tap the three exposed White boxes (38, 34, 35) in the front row. White is heavily exposed along the top and outer edges, clearing quickly without stalling.
- Trap
- The Yellow 19 box buried in row 4 corresponds solely to the goldfish in the centre of the bag. If sent to a slot before the Cyan water is drained, it stalls indefinitely.
- Mechanic
- Linked boxes joined by a vertical or horizontal bracket move into the slots together and consume two available slots at once.
Level 269 questions
-
Why won't the yellow ants pick up the goldfish?
Ants can only carry blocks touching an exposed outer edge. You must remove the surrounding White and Cyan blocks before the Yellow blocks become accessible.
