Colony Flow! Level 560 Walkthrough
Colony Flow Level 560 features a scenic landscape pixel painting with hills, a winding river, and a locked box in the stack. Success requires clearing the expansive green hills and cyan river first to free the flying cyan key. Opening the brown or linked boxes too early clogs vital slots.

How to beat Colony Flow! Level 560 — full solution
- Tap the Blue 2 box (row 1, far left), followed by Light Green 42 (row 1, second from left) and Cyan 35 (row 1, middle). Blue 2 clears the initial exposed blue blocks quickly to free its slot, while green and cyan ants begin stripping the lower meadow and pond edges.
- Tap Light Green 40 (row 1, fourth from left) and Cyan 40 (row 2, far left). Keep the Pink 10 box waiting on the right of the front row. These green and cyan boxes dismantle the lower grass perimeter and river borders, peeling back the outer landscape.
- Tap the Pink 10 box (row 1, far right) once the small pink flower clusters become exposed. Tap White 3 (row 1, second from left) and Light Green 5 to clear outer border tiles and middle grass patches, leaving pink, green, white, and cyan boxes working concurrently.
- Allow the cyan ants to clear the upper-right section of the pond, releasing the winged cyan key embedded near the meadow. Collecting this key unlocks the locked box in the center of the stack, freeing access to the deeper rows.
- Tap Cyan 26 to clear the remaining river water. Tap the linked Light Green 4 pair into two open slots to strip the upper hill slopes, then tap White 50 to begin dismantling the expansive white background grid.
- Tap White 3 and release Light Green 5 and Light Green 40 from the front row as slots clear. Their ants harvest the final green foliage blocks across the top and sides, completely removing the landscape hills.
- Tap Brown 30 (row 1, right) to strip the exposed brown riverbank cutting across the center of the picture. Tap the first Pink 8 box to eliminate any residual flower accents, clearing the entire central strip and leaving only the perimeter frame.
- Tap the second Pink 8 box alongside White 6 and White 36 from the remaining stack. The ants haul away the final perimeter border blocks into the nest holes, clearing the entire canvas to win the level.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping Brown 30 early while the riverbank is still buried beneath green hills and cyan water, leaving it stuck in a slot for dozens of moves.
- Tapping the linked Light Green 4 box when fewer than two slots are free, preventing it from deploying and wasting a move.
Quick tips for Level 560
- Prioritize Cyan and Light Green early, as they form the vast majority of the outer picture layers.
- Do not touch the Pink boxes until the pink flower blossoms inside the meadow are physically exposed on their borders.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- The picture depicts a grassy meadow with rolling hills, a winding cyan pond, pink flowers, and a brown earthen riverbank against a white grid backdrop. Two nest holes sit beneath the board above five waiting slots.
- Goal
- Carry away all pixel blocks across the landscape using ant boxes from the stack without letting all five slots fill with blocked boxes.
- Opening
- Begin with Blue 2 to instantly clear the tiny blue accents, then deploy Light Green 42 and Cyan 35 to strip the outer green and cyan layers.
- Trap
- The Brown 30 box is extremely dangerous if picked before the green and cyan layers are stripped, as the brown riverbank is entirely enclosed.
- Mechanic
- A locked box in the middle of the stack requires collecting the cyan key embedded in the upper-right pond area, and linked boxes require two vacant slots to deploy simultaneously.
Level 560 questions
-
How do I unlock the locked box in Colony Flow Level 560?
Clear the cyan river blocks in the upper-right quadrant of the picture. Once the winged cyan key is exposed, ants carry it out to unlock the box in the stack.
-
Why won't the linked Light Green box deploy in Level 560?
Linked boxes must enter together. Ensure at least two of your five slots are completely empty before tapping the linked pair.
