Colony Flow! level guide
Colony Flow! Level 78 Walkthrough
Level 78 features a framed penguin pixel picture. Clear the outermost cyan background and yellow corners first, then work through the hot pink border to uncover the face. Do not bring in white or eye-detail boxes before their interior pixels are exposed.

How to beat Colony Flow! Level 78 — full solution
- Tap the Yellow 35 (row 1, third box), White 20 (row 1, leftmost), Cyan 35 (row 2, leftmost), Black 36 (row 2, second), and Cyan 28 (row 2, leftmost). Ants attack the cyan outer background, the yellow corner pads, and the outer black borders; all five slots are occupied.
- As both cyan boxes exhaust their counts and free their slots, tap the Hot Pink 38 (row 1, rightmost) and the Hot Pink 35 (row 2, second). Tap the Black 32 (row 3, leftmost). The pink border and black perimeter outlines strip away while White 20 waits.
- Tap the Yellow 35 (row 2, third) and the Yellow 30 (revealed middle). Follow with the Hot Pink 35 (row 3, second). The hot pink outer frame disappears and yellow clears the corner accents and beak edges, freeing two slots.
- Tap the Black 32 (stack middle), Yellow 29 (stack right), and Cyan 34 (stack right). The upper border frame finishes clearing, and cyan begins working into the top of the penguin's head; three slots remain active.
- Release the Black 35 (stack left), Hot Pink 40 (revealed middle), and White 20 (stack right). The remaining frame remnants vanish, black eye outlines are cleared, and the white face patches start being stripped; two slots in use.
- Tap the Cyan 34 (stack middle), White 20 (stack left), Hot Pink 40 (stack right), and Black 30 (revealed left). The white cheeks, eye centers, and forehead expand, leaving three slots actively carrying blocks.
- Tap the Black 30 (stack center), Hot Pink 40 (stack right), Yellow 35 (stack left), White 20 (stack center), and Black 35 (stack left). Yellow finishes the beak and feet while black outline pixels around the body clear out completely.
- Tap the Hot Pink 38 (stack middle), Cyan 35 (stack left), and White 20 (stack right). The final hot pink accents clear out entirely, leaving only the cyan head cap and white chest.
- Tap the White 35 (stack center), White 35 (revealed underneath), Cyan 35 (stack center), and Cyan 35 (stack right). All remaining cyan and white body blocks are carried into the nest, completing the level.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping White 20 at the very start when only border colors are exposed → White sits idle in a slot for almost a minute, blocking a slot needed for cyan and pink.
- Releasing Black 35 or Black 32 before the outer pink and cyan layers peel back → Black ants cannot reach interior eye outlines and the box stays stuck.
Quick tips for Level 78
- Peel the image from outside in: clear cyan background blocks and pink frame edges before committing to face colors.
- Keep at least one slot empty whenever possible so newly revealed mystery boxes can be deployed without stalling.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- A square pixel portrait of a penguin inside a hot pink border sits above two nests, five holding slots, and a four-column stack of ant boxes.
- Goal
- Carry away all 100 border and body blocks from the picture using the ant boxes before all five slots stall.
- Opening
- Send the exposed Yellow 35, White 20, and Cyan 35 into slots to start chewing away the exposed background corners immediately.
- Trap
- Sending multiple black or white boxes early stalls them because black and white blocks form interior facial features protected by outer layers.
- Mechanic
- Some boxes are connected by colored guide bands or hidden behind mystery boxes, unlocking as front-row boxes are cleared.
Level 78 questions
-
Why is my White box not doing anything in the opening?
White blocks are located entirely inside the penguin's face and belly. Clear the surrounding pink frame and cyan head blocks first to expose the white edges.
