How to beat Colony Flow! Level 473 — full solution

  1. Tap Light Blue 30 (front row, left), Light Green 25 (front row, middle), and Orange 35 (front row, right). Their ants start stripping the exposed outer diagonal stripes from the shooting star, keeping two slots free.
  2. Tap Dark Purple 35 (row 2, middle) and Pink 45 (row 3, left). They enter the remaining open slots and clear diagonal band segments alongside the active outer stripes.
  3. As the first Light Blue and Light Green boxes finish and clear their slots, tap Pink 26 (revealed behind Pink 45) and the mystery boxes as they shift forward into Grey 44 and Grey 30 to keep diagonal clearing continuous.
  4. Tap Yellow 38 and Light Blue 21 once they reach the front row to clear inner diagonal sections, while Light Green 26 chips away at the top bands.
  5. Tap Dark Purple 13 and Pink 34 to erode the inner edge of the star and release the locked treasure chest in the centre.
  6. Tap Yellow 21, Yellow 22, and the linked Light Green pair (Light Green 26 and Light Green 25) to strip away the yellow star body and surrounding blocks from the chest.
  7. Tap Dark Purple 36 and Dark Purple 35 to dismantle the large dark purple night-sky background framing the star.
  8. Tap Dark Purple 35 (lower row) to consume the final corner blocks and clear the entire board.

Moves that cost you the level

  • Tapping deep Dark Purple boxes before clearing the diagonal stripes → dark purple ants have very few exposed edge blocks at the start, clogging slots while waiting for layers to clear.

Quick tips for Level 473

  • The diagonal light blue, green, and pink bands form the outer boundary; always clear them first to expose the inner yellow star.
  • Pay attention to the 100-hit chest at the centre of the star; opening adjacent colours early allows its counter to start ticking down.
Board breakdown5 notes
Layout
A pixel-art shooting star flying across a dark purple night sky, featuring diagonal bands of light blue, light green, pink, and yellow pointing toward a 100-hit treasure chest at the lower right.
Goal
Clear all coloured blocks and break the 100-hit treasure chest using ant boxes from the stack.
Opening
Tap Light Blue 30, Light Green 25, and Orange 35 from the front row. All three colours have exposed outer edges along the diagonal trails.
Trap
Dark Purple fills the background around the shooting star, but its inner edges are blocked by the star itself until the trails and star body are cleared.
Mechanic
A large 100-hit treasure chest occupies the centre of the star and absorbs hits as surrounding star blocks disappear.
