How to beat Colony Flow! Level 356 — full solution
- With Light Green 29 and Dark Purple 35 already in slots 1 and 2, tap Red 4, White 50, and Blue 40 from the front row. They fill all five slots and begin stripping the border, hat, mouth, and blue band.
- Tap Blue 50 and Dark Purple 30 as early slots clear. Their ants strip the blue hat ribbon and upper hat edge, freeing two slots.
- Tap White 45 and Dark Purple 35 from the exposed stack. They dig deeper into the face and the pirate hat fabric, exposing the skull badge and star ornament.
- Tap White 30 and Dark Purple 30 into available slots. They clear the inner skull eyes and the hat layers surrounding the yellow key.
- Collect the yellow key from the hat star to release the padlock, then tap Yellow 30. Its ants harvest the yellow blocks to clear the hat decoration and empty its slot quickly.
- Tap White 25 and Dark Purple 25 into freed slots. They finish the remaining face shading and clear out the lower hat brim.
- Tap Light Green 20 from the leftmost column. Its ants resume dismantling the outer green frame while the last hat blocks disappear.
- Tap Light Green 25 into the final available slot. Its ants carry away the remaining green border blocks to finish the level.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping multiple large Dark Purple boxes while the blue hat band is still intact → Dark Purple ants run out of exposed blocks and stall in the slots.
- Ignoring the upper-right yellow star → the locked box in the stack remains sealed, jamming the left column.
Quick tips for Level 356
- Work inward from the outer hat edges to uncover small embedded details like the yellow star and red cheeks.
- Keep at least one slot cycling with small-count boxes so you do not deadlock while high-capacity boxes work.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- The picture is a pirate skull cat framed by a light green border, with five slots above a multi-row stack of ant boxes.
- Goal
- Clear all coloured blocks from the pixel picture by feeding ant boxes into the five slots.
- Opening
- Light Green 29 and Dark Purple 35 start in the slots; deploying Red 4, White 50, and Blue 40 safely attacks all exposed outer layers.
- Trap
- The locked box in the left column requires a yellow key embedded in the hat star; filling the slots before the star is uncovered causes a game-ending stall.
- Mechanic
- Padlocked boxes unlock automatically once their matching key icon is carried off the picture by ants.
