How to beat Food Hunt: Pixel Puzzle Level 174 — full solution
- Tap Dark Grey 20, Cyan 14, Cyan 2, and incoming Cyan and Blue jars into the bays. Ants strip the outer blue and cyan border pixels of the lollipop and begin chipping away at the dark outline. The five bays become fully occupied with Cyan, Blue, and Dark Grey jars.
- Allow the outer Cyan, Blue, and Dark Grey jars to clear, then tap White 8, Red 10, Hot Pink 10, and uncovered Cyan jars into the bays. Ants eat away the outer rim layers, exposing the multi-coloured candy spiral beneath. Two bays remain occupied by White and Red.
- Tap Light Green 10, Purple 15, White 8, Red 6, and Pink into the available bays. The ants strip the outer coils of the lollipop spiral and parts of the bow. Several jars cycle through as the picture count drops to 172.
- Let the active Red and White jars finish their runs on the outer spiral segments while Light Green and Purple continue feeding. Dark Grey ants continue eating the stick and outline pixels. Red clears, leaving four bays in use.
- Deploy the uncovered Yellow jars to eat through the exposed yellow coils of the spiral. The middle spiral unwinds rapidly, clearing the remaining yellow pixels and uncovering inner Light Green and Cyan segments as the counter drops to 87.
- Tap Yellow 7, Cyan 16, and Light Green jars into the open bays. Ants strip the remaining coils on the candy face down to just 18 pixels, leaving the main lollipop head nearly empty and exposing the lower stick and bow.
- Tap Dark Grey 21, Red 10, and Cyan 8 to finish off the candy head and start stripping the bow and stick pixels. Ants rapidly devour the dark outline and stick accents, leaving one free bay as the candy face is completely cleared.
- Tap the remaining Light Green 1, White 4, Lilac 6, Green 6, and Yellow 2 jars, followed by the Dark Grey 26 jar. Ants consume the final stick and wrapper pixels to clear the board and complete the level.

Moves that cost you the level
- Tapping the Lilac 20 or Pink jars before the outer cyan and red spiral coils are stripped → Lilac and Pink pixels are buried deep in the bow and inner coils, stalling jars in bays and causing a gridlock.
- Tapping the Dark Grey 32 jar too early while stick pixels are still blocked by wrapper pixels → Dark Grey ants have no exposed pixels to target, clogging a bay.
Quick tips for Level 174
- Always prioritize jars matching the outermost exposed pixels: on this circular lollipop, clear the Cyan and Blue outer ring first before tapping inner spiral colours.
- Keep at least one bay open when uncovering Mystery jars so unexpected colours do not immediately cause a game-over stall.
- The stick and bow contain Lilac, Purple, and Dark Grey pixels that only become fully accessible after the lower candy edge is eaten.
Board breakdown5 notes
- Layout
- A large circular lollipop candy pixel-art image with a stick and bow (500 pixels total) sits above five empty bays, with a 3x3 grid of jars feeding from below.
- Goal
- Clear all 500 pixels of the lollipop candy to win the level.
- Opening
- Start with Dark Grey 20, Cyan 14, and adjacent Cyan/Blue jars to remove the outermost wrapper rim and begin clearing the stick outline.
- Trap
- Tapping deep inner spiral colours like Lilac or Green before peeling away the outer Cyan and Red rings will cause jars to stall in bays with no valid target pixels.
- Mechanic
- Mystery jars marked with question marks are hidden until the jars in front of them are sent to the bays.
Level 174 questions
-
What should I tap first on Level 174?
Tap Dark Grey 20 and the front-row Cyan jars. The lollipop's outer shell is entirely Blue and Cyan, so these colours clear immediately without stalling.
-
Why do my Lilac and Green jars stall on Level 174?
Lilac and Green pixels are trapped inside the inner spiral coils and the bottom bow. Clear the outer Cyan, Red, and White rings first to expose them.
