How to beat Colony Flow! Level 413 — full solution

  1. Tap Pink 30 (row 1, left), White 30 (row 1, second left), White 2 (row 1, third left), and Black 30 (row 1, right) into bays 2 through 5. White 30 clears the facial highlights and leaves bay 2 free, while Black 30 and Pink 30 strip the bottom outline.
  2. Tap Black 25 (row 1, left) and Pink 28 (row 1, second left) into the cleared bays. Black ants chew through the lower border and chin outlines, revealing the lower pink body and exposing the keys inside the face.
  3. Tap Yellow 9 (row 2, center) once the yellow key on the beak is collected to clear the beak and nose area. The yellow and green padlocks in the stack unlock, freeing the previously locked Black 30 and Pink 24 boxes.
  4. Tap Cyan 40 (row 2, third from left) and Brown 40 (row 1, far right) into open bays. Cyan ants strip the inner belly pattern while Brown ants start carving the lower brown border, allowing Red 24 in bay 1 to finally start picking at the crest.
  5. Tap Pink 40 (row 1, center) and Pink 24 (row 2, right) to clean out the remaining torso blocks. The entire pink body is completely stripped, leaving the upper ear outlines and top crest exposed.
  6. Ensure at least two bays are free, then tap the linked Black 30 + Black 28 pair from the front row, followed by White 4 and Orange 35. Black ants strip the outer ear rings and crest trim while Red 24 finishes the crest blocks.
  7. Tap Cyan 35 (row 2, right) and Cyan 28 into the free bays to consume both cyan ear sections. The ear shapes completely clear, exposing the remaining perimeter of the brown outer border.
  8. Tap the remaining brown boxes—Brown 38, Brown 34, Brown 38, Brown 34, and Brown 35—in any order. Brown ants strip the outer border until every last tile is carried away.

Moves that cost you the level

  • Tapping Cyan 40 before the belly is exposed → Cyan blocks are entirely buried under Pink and Black layers early on, stalling in a bay alongside the already dormant Red 24.
  • Attempting to tap the linked Black 30 + Black 28 pair when fewer than two bays are empty → linked boxes require two vacant bays to deploy, blocking your progress if bays are cluttered.

Quick tips for Level 413

  • Keep at least two bays free as you work down the stack so linked box pairs can deploy without stalling.
  • Prioritize chipping away the facial outlines quickly to collect the Yellow and Green keys before the stack jams.
Board breakdown5 notes
Layout
A pixel-art creature with large cyan ears, pink body, white face mask, yellow beak, and red crest sits inside a square brown frame. Five bays sit in the center, and a dense multi-row stack of boxes rests at the bottom.
Goal
Clear all colored blocks from the creature portrait across all 5 bays. There is no time limit.
Opening
Red 24 starts pre-loaded into the first bay. Tap Pink 30, White 30, White 2, and Black 30 from the front row to peel the base outlines and white eye details.
Trap
Red 24 is forced into the first bay from the start but its red crest blocks are buried at the top center. You effectively play with only four available bays until the crest is breached.
Mechanic
Embedded keys and padlocks: the Yellow and Green keys hidden on the face unlock corresponding padlocked boxes in the stack when ants reach their tiles. Linked box pairs occupy two adjacent bays simultaneously.

Level 413 questions

  • Why is Red 24 stuck in the first bay at the start of Level 413?

    Red blocks only exist in the crest at the top of the creature's head. Red 24 remains dormant until the black outlines and upper frame covering the crest are removed.

  • How do I unlock the yellow and green padlocks in the stack?

    Clear the creature's face and beak using Pink, Black, and White boxes. Collecting the key tiles embedded in the picture automatically removes the padlocks in the stack.
