colonyflow Level 92

Overview

Level 92 is a Normal five-color stage built around a pixel-art character with spiky green hair, set against a bright blue background. Blue covers more than forty percent of the board, followed by green, red and orange in the middle layers, with brown as the smaller outline color and tiny trace colors scattered on top. The tiles are stacked in layers, so the clearing follows the character from the outside in: green leaves first, then blue, then red, then brown, and orange finishes at the bottom. With a dominant blue layer and a three-minute run, queue discipline and the speed-up button are the whole challenge.

• Difficulty: Regular (Normal)
• Estimated moves: 30–40 taps

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Open with green. Green is the outermost hair layer of the character, so nothing underneath it can be carried away until it is gone. Tap the green tile and let the ants start the outer clear.
2. Move to blue next. Blue is the background and the largest area of the picture, so this is the long stretch of the level. Tap blue, use the 2x speed-up button to shorten the repeated waiting, and keep the queue from filling with any second color while the ants run.
3. Work the red phase. Red tiles were covered by the outer colors, so they only become reachable now. Clear red in one continuous push and keep an eye on the queue.
4. Work brown next. Brown tiles were covered by the brighter colors, so they only become reachable in the middle of the level. Clear brown in one push.
5. Clear the trace colors (gray, black, cyan, pink, yellow) as they are exposed. These small accents hide inside the character, and the efficient play is to spend free queue slots on them immediately so they never block a slot during the long blue push.
6. Finish with orange. Orange is the bottom layer of the picture, so it only becomes reachable at the very end. Sweep it in bulk; since it is the final color, it is safe to fill the queue and let the ants finish the board. The character disappears completely and the level-complete overlay with five white input slots appears.

Strategy & Reasoning

The removal order is dictated by the layer geometry: green and blue cover the character, red and brown sit on the middle layers, and orange is the bottom layer, so the sequence green → blue → red → brown → orange keeps the ants on reachable tiles. Blue is the strategic bottleneck — it is more than forty percent of the board, and the correct play is to give it a long uninterrupted run while using spare queue slots for the small trace colors. Running blue and red at the same time fills the five slots and stalls the ants. Because the level runs about three minutes, the speed-up button should stay active for the whole duration, and tools like Magnet and Lightning exist only to rescue a jammed queue.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• Running blue and red at the same time jams the five slots and stalls the board. Finish the background before starting the body color.
• Ignoring the small trace colors until the queue is full leaves an unmatchable tile blocking the line. Clear every exposed accent immediately with a free slot.
• Forgetting the speed-up button on such a long level wastes minutes. Keep the 2x speed active for the whole blue phase.
