How to beat Colony Flow! Level 33 — full solution
- Tap White 35 (front row, column 1), White 35 (front row, column 3), and Beige 20 (front row, column 4). White ants strip the lower-left and right background; the two White boxes finish, leaving only Beige 20 parked in slot 3.
- Tap Beige 15 (front row, column 1), White 37 (front row, column 2), White 20 (front row, column 3), and White 40 (front row, column 4). White ants clear the outer boundary; all three White boxes finish, leaving Beige 15 and Beige 20 in slots while exposing the stick.
- Tap Black 22 (front row, column 3), Beige 10 (front row, column 2), and Black 33 (front row, column 4). Black and Beige ants strip the stick outline and wooden core simultaneously; slots end fully active as the stick rapidly disappears.
- Use the Paintbrush booster on the stack, then tap Red 26 (front row, column 4) and Red 35 (front row, column 3) into freed slots. Red ants begin clearing the bottom-right popsicle edge; slots 1 through 5 hold Black and Red boxes as stick boxes finish.
- Tap Red 29 (front row, column 4) as Red 26 finishes. Red ants continue peeling the lower body while Black 33 trims the lower border; the stick is completely gone, leaving two active slots.
- Tap White 32 (front row, column 4) and Black 25 (front row, column 3). White ants clear the right background edge while Black ants remove border tiles; both clear, leaving the board perimeter open and slots empty.
- Tap Beige 20 (front row, column 1), Beige 35 (front row, column 2), Red 38 (front row, column 3), and White 36 (front row, column 4). Beige ants consume the exposed bite filling while White finishes the upper background; all but Red 38 clear, leaving two Red units in slot 3.
- Use the Glove booster to return the stalled Red 2 to the stack, freeing slot 3. Tap Red 1 (stack), White 33 (front row, column 3), White 35 (front row, column 4), and Black 24 (front row, column 4); upper white tiles clear completely.
- Tap Red 35 (front row, column 1), Red 35 (front row, column 2), and Black 22 (front row, column 3), then use the Paintbrush booster on the stack. Red ants devour the main popsicle body as the top outline vanishes; three slots remain active.
- Tap White 40 (front row, column 4), Red 35 (front row, column 1), and Black 32 (front row, column 4). White clears the final background tile, Red consumes the remaining popsicle core, and Black carries away the last bite outline to finish the level.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping front-row Red boxes before breaking the black outline → red ants have no exposed red tiles to target, clogging a slot until outer tiles vanish.
- Stacking multiple Beige boxes while the stick is still enclosed by the white background → all Beige boxes freeze in the slots with zero progress.
Quick tips for Level 33
- Clear the background White blocks surrounding the popsicle stick early so Beige and Black ants can begin stripping the stick without stalling.
- If playing without boosters, reserve free slots for White and Black outline boxes so red popsicle tiles can be peeled gradually from exposed edges.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- A bitten popsicle on a stick centered in a white frame, with five slots above a four-column stack.
- Goal
- Clear all blocks forming the popsicle and its background before the 2m:48s timer expires.
- Opening
- Tap the front-row White 35 boxes to begin stripping the outer background, parking a Beige box safely to prepare for the stick.
- Trap
- Filling slots with Black or Red boxes before their corresponding outlines or body blocks are exposed, which clogs the buffer.
- Mechanic
- Ants only consume exposed blocks of their color on the exterior perimeter; buried filling and core blocks cannot be gathered until outer layers vanish.
Level 33 questions
-
What should I tap first on Colony Flow! Level 33?
Tap the front-row White 35 boxes to clear the lower and side background tiles. This exposes the popsicle stick so Black outline and Beige stick boxes can begin working.
-
Why do my Beige ant boxes stop moving on Level 33?
Beige ants only target the wooden stick and the bite filling. If the outer white background or red shell covers those areas, Beige boxes stall until those layers are cleared.
