How to beat Colony Flow! Level 86 — full solution
- Tap the White 20 box, the White 15 box (column 1), the Light Blue 15 box (column 2), the Yellow 8 box (column 2), and the Cyan 20 box (column 3). Ants strip the bottom white border, the lower crosses, and outer yellow edges, filling all five slots.
- Release the Yellow 18 box (column 4), the Red 20 box (column 1), and the Pink 21 box (column 4) as slots clear. Ants consume the bottom yellow base and begin dismantling the exposed red and pink lower sections; all five slots finish emptying.
- Send in the Pink 19 box (column 1), the Red 18 box (column 4), the Green 17 box (column 3), and the second Pink 21 box (column 4). Ants clear the lower-left pink and red segments, leaving all slots open.
- Deploy the White 14 box (column 1), the Cyan 20 box (column 2), the Pink 11 box (column 4), the Green 9 box (column 3), and the Red 15 box (column 4). The remaining lower red blocks and the left white chest border vanish, leaving one cyan box in play.
- Tap the Pink 18 box (column 1), the Green 6 box (column 2), the Cyan 20 box (column 3), and the White 18 box (column 4). Ants harvest the green fringe and strip the upper-right white border; four slots remain active.
- Release the Yellow 7 box (column 2), the Yellow 3 box (column 2), and the White 8 box (column 4). Ants strip the exposed yellow chest blocks and remaining perimeter white pixels, clearing the lower corners.
- Send the Pink 14 box (column 1), the Cyan 9 box (column 3), the Green 18 box (column 2), and the Green 1 box (column 2). Ants carry away the central pink crown band and exposed green patches, opening two slots.
- Deploy the White 13 box (column 1), the Pink 6 box (column 2), the Cyan 9 box (column 3), the Cyan 3 box (column 1), and the White 15 box (column 4). The remaining white chest accents and pink accents disappear, leaving only central cyan and pink blocks.
- Finish by tapping the Pink 7 box (column 2), the Yellow 2 box (column 2), the Pink 1 box (column 2), and the Cyan 16 box (column 3). Ants carry off the last remaining yellow and cyan pixels to complete the picture.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping the Red 20 box in column 1 during the opening → the central red blocks are completely covered by white and yellow pixels, leaving the box stalled in a slot until the outer border is peeled away.
Quick tips for Level 86
- Work from the outer border inward: peel away white and yellow perimeter blocks to reveal deeper cyan and pink layers.
- Watch the chests embedded in the image; they contain high-density block groups that take extra time to deplete.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- The picture is a wide jester crown made of multi-coloured blocks with small chest icons on the sides and five mini cross formations below it. Two nests sit between the picture and the five holding slots.
- Goal
- Clear all coloured blocks from the board into the ant nests using the boxes queued in the four-column stack.
- Opening
- Start by deploying White 20, White 15, and Light Blue 15 to clear the exterior boundary and the lower cross symbols.
- Trap
- Loading the Red 20 box too early locks a slot because red pixels sit deep inside the crown structure.
- Mechanic
- Blocks must be on an exposed outer edge of the remaining pixel art before ants can pick them up.
