Colony Flow! Level 477 Walkthrough

How to beat Colony Flow! Level 477 — full solution
- Tap White 40 (front row, column 1), Light Blue 35 (front row, column 3), and Light Blue 34 (front row, column 5). These boxes strip the outer white cloud and light blue sky edges around the picture border, freeing the slots as their counts drop.
- Tap Black 35 (front row, column 2) and White 35 (revealed in row 1, column 2). Black ants carry off exposed black border pixels, and white ants eat deeper into the clouds, revealing Red 10 underneath in column 2.
- Tap White 38 (front row, column 4) and White 35 (revealed in row 1, column 5). These boxes clear the right cloud cluster and uncover Black 35 in column 5 and the linked Light Blue column on the right.
- Tap the vertically linked Light Blue 35 and Light Blue 38 pair (column 1). They enter two slots simultaneously and strip the upper-left sky background, clearing out large cyan-blue sections and unlocking row 3.
- Tap Yellow 30 (revealed in row 1, column 2) and Red 10 (column 4). With three slots active, ensure red and yellow blocks on the witch's bow and broomstick are exposed before tapping, avoiding deadlocks in the slots.
- Tap the vertically linked Light Blue 30 and Light Blue 35 pair (column 3) along with White 34 (row 1, column 3). They strip the center-left sky and remaining cloud patches, freeing the chests and unlocking the middle column.
- Tap the vertically linked Light Blue 35 and Light Blue 35 pair (column 5), Red 16 (revealed in column 2), and Red 12 (revealed in column 5). Red ants clear the witch's dress while blue ants chip away at the upper sky.
- Tap Black 35 (column 5), Yellow 35 (row 2, column 2), White 40 (row 2, column 1), Light Blue 35 (row 1, column 1), and Light Blue 35 (row 1, column 4). They clear the witch's hair, broomstick, and the last sky fragments to clear the board.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping Red 10 or Yellow 30 in the opening → red and yellow blocks are buried inside the witch sprite, causing the boxes to stall and permanently clog slots.
- Deploying the linked Light Blue pair in column 1 with fewer than two empty slots → linked boxes require two free slots to enter simultaneously, preventing the tap if slots are full.
Quick tips for Level 477
- Prioritize clearing the white clouds and light blue sky from the exterior before deploying inner character colors like red and yellow.
- Keep at least two slots open whenever preparing to tap a vertically linked pair of boxes.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- Five slots sit directly above a five-column stack of ant boxes, beneath a 1000-block pixel art picture depicting a witch flying against a cloudy sky. Several boxes in the stack are linked vertically or locked behind mystery boxes and padlocks.
- Goal
- Clear all 1000 blocks from the witch pixel-art picture using ant boxes without filling all five slots with stuck boxes.
- Opening
- Tap White 40, Light Blue 35, and Light Blue 34 from the front row to clear the exposed outer clouds and sky without risking stuck slots.
- Trap
- Tapping Yellow 30 or Red 10 before the outer clouds and sky are cleared stalls the solve; the broomstick and dress are buried deep inside the picture and have no exposed blocks at the start.
- Mechanic
- Vertically linked boxes share a connecting bar and must be deployed together, occupying two slots simultaneously.
Level 477 questions
-
What do I tap first in Colony Flow! Level 477?
Tap White 40, Light Blue 35, or Light Blue 34 from the front row, as their blocks form the exposed outer border of the picture.
-
Why did my yellow box stop moving on Level 477?
Yellow blocks on the broomstick are buried under sky and cloud layers, so yellow ants cannot harvest them until the surrounding blocks are stripped.
