How to beat Colony Flow! Level 4 — full solution
- Tap the Hot Pink 15 box, front row, left, and the Cyan 30 box directly behind it. Their ants harvest the outer pink flowers and cyan sky blocks, freeing two slots once depleted.
- Tap the Black 25 box in row 2, the Green 24 box in row 1 right, and the Hot Pink 15 box in row 1 middle. Ants clear the framing black outline, ground green blocks, and remaining pink accents.
- Tap the Hot Pink 15 box in row 2 middle and the Hot Pink 8 box uncovered beneath it. These exhaust the remaining exposed hot pink elements, clearing the slots.
- Tap the Green 50 box, the Cyan 32 box, and the Cyan 32 box beneath it. The swarm clears large sections of the green ground and the outer cyan background.
- Tap the Black 10 box, Cyan 25 box, and Black 40 box. Ants clear more framing outline blocks and background patches, uncovering the inner mushroom details.
- Tap the White 10 box, Cyan 32 box, and Black 35 box. Ants clear white cloud or roof-dot spots, outer black borders, and remaining sky pixels.
- Tap the Red 40 box and Red 50 box to target the mushroom roof. The red canopy begins clearing rapidly, exposing the white spots and yellow chimney structure.
- Tap the White 35 box, Red 15 box, and Green 10 box. Ants finish the remaining white roof spots, leftover red cap pixels, and ground foliage.
- Tap the Green 22 box, Red 35 box, and Brown 32 box. The red roof disappears entirely while the brown door and foundation start being collected.
- Tap the White 25 box, White 44 box, and Black 25 box. Ants strip the white wall outlines and dark framing borders around the door and window.
- Tap the Yellow 19 box, Red 15 box, and Brown 15 box. The remaining red details and brown door sections vanish, exposing all yellow wall blocks.
- Tap the Yellow 14 box, Cyan 32 box, and Brown 25 box. All brown foundation parts and lingering cyan border blocks clear completely.
- Tap the Yellow 15 box and Black 15 box, followed by the Yellow 50 box. The final ants remove the yellow cottage walls, leaving zero blocks on the board.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping the central Yellow 50 box during the opening → the yellow cottage walls are buried beneath cyan sky and green ground, leaving the box stalled in a slot until near the end.
Quick tips for Level 4
- Clear background and border colours like cyan and green before deploying interior colours like yellow or brown.
- Watch the numbers on the boxes to avoid loading a large box into a slot when only a few exposed blocks of that colour exist.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- The picture shows a mushroom cottage with a red spotted roof, yellow walls, and a brown door, surrounded by cyan sky and green ground.
- Goal
- Dismantle all blocks of the mushroom cottage picture by dispatching ant boxes into the five slots until every block is carried away.
- Opening
- Tap the outer Hot Pink 15 and Cyan 30 boxes from the stack. They immediately harvest exposed border tiles without clogging slots.
- Trap
- The Yellow 50 box sits in the middle stack early on. Activating it before clearing the outer frame leaves it permanently stuck in a slot.
- Mechanic
- Ants can only pick up blocks touching an outer edge. Uncovering inner blocks requires removing surrounding outer blocks first.
Level 4 questions
-
Why is my Yellow ant box not moving in Colony Flow! Level 4?
The yellow wall blocks are shielded by the outer frame and roof. Clear the cyan, green, and red blocks first so the yellow blocks become exposed.
