How to beat Colony Flow! Level 478 — full solution
- Tap the Light Green 35 box at the front row, left. Ants strip the outermost Light Green frame blocks, opening space for underlying background elements.
- Tap the Beige 42 box at the front row, centre. It sits temporarily while exterior Light Green corners clear, then rapidly targets exposed Beige edge pixels.
- Tap the Brown 30 box at the front row, right. Its ants target exposed Brown borders along the monkey's outline, working alongside active Light Green ants.
- Tap the linked Hot Pink 1 + Hot Pink 1 pair in the front row. Both boxes slide into slots simultaneously and instantly clear the Hot Pink nose and inner ear accents.
- Tap the Yellow 36 box in the right column. Its ants harvest outer yellow patches and edge accents, clearing the slot once all exposed yellow pixels are collected.
- Tap the revealed front row boxes, including Black 12 and Brown 30, in any order. The Black box collects the monkey's dark outline and pupils while Brown strips fur sections.
- Deploy the revealed Light Green 30, Yellow 14, and Brown 14 boxes from the front row. They remove the remaining lower border and monkey body blocks.
- Tap the remaining Beige 30 and Light Green boxes uncovered from the bottom rows. They strip the final facial pixels and leftover edge blocks to complete the monkey.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping the linked Hot Pink 1 + Hot Pink 1 pair while four slots are occupied → the linked pair requires two open slots, preventing either from deploying.
- Tapping deep Black or Dark Purple boxes before outer Light Green blocks are stripped → their colors remain entirely enclosed, freezing them in slots.
Quick tips for Level 478
- Always maintain at least two free slots when linked pairs reach the front of the stack.
- Prioritize Light Green boxes whenever exposed border tiles remain to uncover internal colours faster.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- A pixel portrait of a monkey surrounded by a solid Light Green background frame. Two green counter squares on the picture track remaining counts.
- Goal
- Clear all pixel blocks from the picture using ant boxes from the stack without jamming all five slots.
- Opening
- Tap the Light Green 35 box followed by the Brown 30 box. These colours are immediately exposed on the outer boundaries and begin working without delay.
- Trap
- Tapping Hot Pink or Black boxes before stripping the boundary risks stalling if inner features have no exposed perimeter connection.
- Mechanic
- Linked boxes joined by a bar must enter slots together, demanding two empty slots simultaneously.
