How to beat Food Hunt: Pixel Puzzle Level 261 — full solution

  1. Tap the front Cyan, Blue, Orange, and Red jars to fill the bays. Their ants clear the lower outer borders, exposed water pixels, and the outer rim of the red prohibition circle.
  2. Tap the Black 10 jar and White 14 jar into freed bays as outer pixels clear. The ants strip the exposed edges of the crow silhouette inside the sign and begin eating the white seagull body.
  3. Release the Yellow 27 jar and Cyan 40 jar alongside Orange and White jars. The yellow ants strip the background of the warning sign while cyan ants chip away at the water and sky borders.
  4. Cycle in White jars and Cyan jars into available bays to eat away the seagull body and the middle sky. The red prohibition border and most of the crow silhouette vanish completely.
  5. Deploy the Yellow 30 jar and White jars to strip the remaining yellow core of the sign and continue clearing the seagull belly and wings.
  6. This is the most critical choke point: tap the Black 51 jar once the sign post is fully exposed so it does not stall in a bay, accompanied by Orange and White jars to finish the seagull legs and beak.
  7. Tap the Cyan 20 jar, Red 3 jar, and Yellow 10 jar to clean up the last remnants of the sign post and bird legs while freeing up slots for the final sky layers.
  8. Send in the White 6, Cyan 13, Blue 22, and Blue 59 jars in any order. Their ants clear the upper corners of the sky and clouds to complete the board.

Moves that cost you the level

  • Tapping the Black 51 jar too early → the sign post and crow silhouette are buried behind the red circle and outer layers, causing the black jar to stall in a bay and block progress.
  • Tapping Yellow jars before the red prohibition slash is cleared → the yellow background of the sign is entirely covered, stalling the yellow jar indefinitely.

Quick tips for Level 261

  • Peel the picture from the outside in: clear the outer sky and the red circle before trying to collect the black crow inside.
  • Do not commit high-count jars like Black 51 or Blue 59 until their target pixels have extensive open borders.
Board breakdown5 notes
Layout
The picture shows a seagull perched on a red prohibition sign containing a black bird silhouette against a yellow field, backed by sky and water. Five bays sit between the ant hole and the jar stack.
Goal
Clear all pixels from the pixel-art picture by feeding matching colored jars through the five bays.
Opening
Start by clearing the outer boundary using Cyan, Blue, and Red jars to strip away the edges and open up the inner sign colors.
Trap
The Black pixels in the crow silhouette and the Yellow pixels inside the sign are completely enclosed by the red circle; tapping Black or Yellow early stalls the bay.
Mechanic
Pixels can only be eaten from exposed outer edges; interior colors remain inaccessible until the surrounding pixels are stripped.

Level 261 questions

  • Why is my Black jar not doing anything in Level 261?

    Black pixels belong to the crow silhouette and sign post, which are blocked by the red prohibition ring and outer scenery. Clear the red ring first.
