Colony Flow! Level 84 Walkthrough
Level 84 features a large pixel art image of a character under an umbrella with five holding slots. Carefully balance your slots by tapping exposed colours like Brown, Orange, and Black while managing linked and locked boxes. Avoid cluttering the slots with deep unexposed colours like Green or Yellow early on.

How to beat Colony Flow! Level 84 — full solution
- Tap the Brown 20 box, Orange 25 box, Cyan 35 box, and Black 40 box from the front row. This clears the bottom edge blocks and begins removing the outer black outline, leaving one slot free.
- Tap the White 26 box from the front row. The White ants remove exposed belly blocks as Black and Orange boxes clear from the slots.
- Tap the Yellow 40 box and Yellow 40 box as they advance to the front row. They remove the background yellow frame blocks, freeing multiple slots.
- Tap the White 40 box and the linked pair of Brown 20 and Brown 20 boxes. The White and Brown ants remove belly patches and bottom frame pixels, opening up inner layers.
- Tap the Black 40 box and Black 40 box from the front row. They clear the umbrella rims and eye details, unlocking the padlock keys on the sides.
- Tap the linked pair of Brown 15 and Light Green 20 boxes once the keys are collected. Light Green ants immediately begin removing the grass patches at the base.
- Tap the Cyan 32 box, Cyan 40 box, and White 30 box from the front row. They clear the character's face, eyes, and belly blocks, opening the remaining stack.
- Tap the Yellow 30 box, Yellow 25 box, Light Green 35 box, and Orange 25 box from the front row. These sweep the upper background, cheeks, and remaining border elements.
- Tap the Brown 20 box, Yellow 37 box, Light Green 38 box, and Orange 25 box. Ants clear the umbrella top and the outer corners, reducing the image to minimal core tiles.
- Tap the Light Blue 35 box, Yellow 40 box, Orange 22 box, and White 28 box. They strip the final remaining face details and umbrella fringes.
- Tap the final Light Green 35 box, Brown 20 box, and Black 40 box to strip the very last pixels from the picture and complete the level.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping the linked Brown 15 and Light Green 20 box before unlocking both keys → the locked box cannot move, blocking the stack until keys are freed.
- Filling all five slots with White and Yellow while Black blocks seal the picture → no exposed matching pixels exist, causing a deadlock.
Quick tips for Level 84
- Target the outer border colours first to free the locked keys on the left and right edges.
- Always maintain at least one empty slot so linked box pairs can enter simultaneously.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- A central pixel art canvas showing a blue character beneath an umbrella, surrounded by yellow borders, with two key locks positioned at the mid-edges.
- Goal
- Clear all pixel blocks from the canvas by deploying matching ant boxes from the stack into the five available slots.
- Opening
- Deploy the front-row Brown 20, Orange 25, Cyan 35, and Black 40 boxes to target immediately exposed boundary pixels.
- Trap
- Deploying the linked pair too early or overcrowding slots with interior colours like Light Green before clearing the outer layers will cause a slot lock.
- Mechanic
- Padlocked keys embedded in the pixel art must have surrounding blocks removed before locked boxes in the stack can be tapped.
