Colony Flow! Level 309 Walkthrough
Level 309 features a pixel-art portrait of Luigi bordered by a thick red background. Focus on clearing the outer background and exposed shoes before committing to face and hat boxes. Sending Yellow or White too early will clog the slots while their layers remain buried.

How to beat Colony Flow! Level 309 — full solution
- Tap Brown 18 (front row, third) and Black 20 (front row, second). Brown ants strip the exposed shoes at the base, while Black ants eat away the outer border outline. Light Green 25 in slot 1 begins clearing exposed cap segments.
- Tap Light Green 25 (second row, second) and White 20 (revealed from stack) into open slots. They clear the hat emblem and exposed glove edges, freeing up the bottom sides of the figure.
- Tap Hot Pink 38 (second row, third) into slot 5. Its ants immediately target the outer frame corners, stripping away the exterior boundary blocks and relieving pressure on the upper cap.
- Tap Light Blue 32 (second row, far right) and Light Blue 24 (third row, third) as slots open. Their ants dismantle Luigi's blue overalls from the bottom and sides, leaving three slots free.
- Tap Red 40 (front row, second) to consume the dense red background surrounding Luigi's head and ears. Stripping these red layers finally exposes the outer edges of his face.
- Tap Yellow 3 (front row, leftmost) and Yellow 20 (front row, rightmost). Now that the surrounding background is peeled away, yellow ants clear the face, nose, and ear tiles without stalling.
- Tap Hot Pink 22 (third row, leftmost) and the second Red 40 to strip away the remaining upper red backdrop, while tapping Black 30 (second row, leftmost) to dismantle the mustache and eyes.
- Tap Yellow 5, Light Green 22, Light Blue 32, and Black 4 in any order from the final stack row. Their ants collect the last fragments of the cap, overalls, and outlines to finish the board.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping the front-row Yellow 3 box at the very start → Luigi's yellow face is completely surrounded by hair, eyes, and hat, so the Yellow box sits completely stuck in a slot.
- Deploying both Light Blue boxes before the red background is peeled away → the overalls are mostly covered by outer boundary blocks, stalling the slots.
Quick tips for Level 309
- Clear the outer red background and lower shoes first to open up access to Luigi's interior face, overalls, and cap.
- Keep at least one slot open whenever tapping high-count boxes like Red 40 so quick utility boxes can cycle through cleanly.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- A 5-slot rack sits below a pixel portrait of Luigi set against a red background, with a deep multi-row stack of ant boxes underneath.
- Goal
- Clear all blocks from the pixel portrait by deploying ants from the box stack into the 5 available slots.
- Opening
- Light Green 25 starts in slot 1; tap the exposed Brown 18 and Black 20 from the front row to begin stripping the bottom boundary.
- Trap
- Yellow boxes (Yellow 3, Yellow 20) sit temptingly in the front row, but Luigi's yellow face is trapped behind facial hair and the hat.
- Mechanic
- Ants only target exposed outer edges of matching blocks; covered inner colours cannot be collected until outer layers vanish.
Level 309 questions

Why won't my Yellow ant box work on Level 309?
Luigi's yellow face pixels are buried behind his mustache, hair, and cap. Clear the outer border and facial outline first before calling yellow ants.
