Colony Flow! Level 440 Walkthrough
Colony Flow! Level 440 features a cottage garden landscape obstructed by a central 80-hit chest, linked boxes, and locked crates. Clear the outer foliage, clouds, and blossoms first to whittle down the chest, saving high-capacity interior boxes until the house structure is exposed. Do not tap Black 53 early.

How to beat Colony Flow! Level 440 — full solution
- Tap Dark Green 40 (row 1, second from left), White 35 (row 1, middle), and Light Green 35 (row 1, second from right). Their ants strip the outermost grass, foliage, and sky clouds, uncovering the lower rows of the stack while keeping two slots open.
- Tap Dark Purple 26 (row 2, middle), Pink 20 (row 2, second from left), Pink 16 (row 2, far right), and Yellow 18 (row 2, far left) as they reach the front row. They harvest the side blossoms and begin chipping the 80-hit chest down to 16; Pink 16 empties completely.
- Tap Black 53 (row 1, far left), Light Blue 35 (row 1, left), and Pink 24 (row 1, second from left) into the open slots. Ants strip exposed dark roof tiles, sky pixels, and garden petals, reducing the chest to 12 hits while Black 53 counts down to 35.
- Tap Yellow 16 (row 2, far right) into the free slot to clear exposed yellow accents on the house and roof. Ants uncover and collect the embedded cyan key from the picture, removing the cyan padlock in the stack while the central chest is finally destroyed.
- Tap Red 18 (row 1, second from left) and Dark Green 38 (row 1, far right). Their ants dismantle the red roof tiles and upper garden canopy, while Yellow finishes in slot 2. Four slots remain active as Black 53 drops to 14.
- With two slots open, tap the linked Dark Green 36 + Light Green 36 pair, then tap Brown 32 (row 1, second from left). Ants dismantle the cottage walls and window frame, freeing the pink key and unlocking the pink padlock in the bottom stack.
- Wait for two slots to free, then tap the linked White 35 + Light Blue 35 pair. Their ants strip the remaining white cottage walls and light blue sky background, collapsing the upper half of the board and leaving only three slots in use.
- Tap Dark Green 35 (row 1, left), Red 18 (row 1, right), and Yellow 4 (row 2, left) in any order as slots clear. Ants collect the remaining red chimney tiles, yellow highlights, and dark green perimeter bushes, leaving four slots free.
- Tap Light Green 22, Light Green 35, and Light Blue 38 from the bottom row in any order. Their ants collect the final green perimeter bushes and stray sky blocks into the nest, clearing the board and completing the level.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping Black 53 on the opening move -> black pixels form the inner house outlines and door frame buried under the outer trees and chest, leaving Black 53 stuck in a slot for the majority of the solve.
- Tapping the linked Dark Green 36 + Light Green 36 pair when fewer than two slots are free -> linked pairs require two slots simultaneously, causing a wasted tap or stall if the bays are full.
Quick tips for Level 440
- Check the chest counter before tapping interior colours; the chest covers 80 blocks in the centre of the image and must be chipped down before central house blocks are exposed.
- Reserve two free slots before touching linked boxes, as tapping either linked cube automatically pulls both into the slots.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- The picture depicts a cottage surrounded by blossom trees and greenery, covered centrally by an 80-hit chest. Below the nest are five empty slots and a staggered stack of 24 boxes containing padlocks and linked pairs.
- Goal
- Clear all pixel blocks from the picture board and destroy the 80-hit chest by deploying 24 ant boxes through five slots into the nest.
- Opening
- Start by tapping Dark Green 40, White 35, and Light Green 35 from the front row. Their colours are fully exposed along the outer perimeter, trees, and sky clouds, clearing immediate space without jamming the five slots.
- Trap
- Black 53 sits temptingly in the front row, but black pixels form interior house outlines and frames buried under external greenery and the chest. Opening Black 53 early clogs a slot for dozens of moves.
- Mechanic
- Linked boxes share a connector bar and enter slots as a simultaneous pair, requiring two free bays. Padlocked boxes stay inert until ants uncover and collect their matching key from the picture.
Level 440 questions

How do I unlock the padlocked boxes on Level 440?
Remove the surrounding pixel blocks on the picture board to free the embedded colored keys; once collected by ants, the matching padlock unlocks automatically.
