Colony Flow Level 1052 Walkthrough Solution & Guides | How to solve Colony Flow 1052

Welcome back to another puzzle guide for your favorite mobile game. Colony Flow Level 1052 presents a bright picture of a rainbow and a sun hiding a massive tile count. You have to chew through a solid wall of sky before you even reach the colorful parts of the board. Let me walk you through the exact sequence I used to clear this picture without jamming the tray and losing the level.

Colony Flow Level 1052 Overview

What You Are Working With

The picture for this level starts with exactly one thousand tiles. The image shows a large rainbow curving from the bottom center up to the left side of the screen. In the top right corner sits a bright yellow and green sun. Small stars or flowers dot the background. However a massive blanket of light blue sky completely surrounds every single part of the picture.

Your tray at the bottom is packed with high number blocks. You will see massive light blue blocks ranging from fifty to over sixty. The tray also holds several Connected Boxes. These are pairs of blocks linked together with a wire. You have to pull them into the waiting slots at the same time. The game will try to trap you by offering colors that are currently buried behind the sky.

What It Takes to Clear Level 1052 Board

To win you need your ants to eat every single one of the thousand pixels on the board. The true challenge is managing the five waiting slots above the nest hole. You lose immediately if all five slots fill up with blocks that have no open path to their matching tiles.

Since the light blue sky forms a solid border around the entire picture you cannot touch the rainbow or the sun early on. If you pull a red or yellow block into a waiting slot it will just sit there dead. You have to carve away the massive light blue border first. Clearing the board means carefully pacing your light blue block pulls to expose the inner colors before you touch the rest of the tray.

Colony Flow Level 1052 Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Carve away the bottom and left edges of the sky.

You must begin by pulling the large light blue blocks to create working space for your ants. Pull the fifty and the sixty two light blue blocks from the starting tray. The ants will stream out of the nest hole and begin eating the entire bottom border of the picture. They will naturally wrap around the left side and begin traveling up the edge of the screen. Wait for these first blocks to count down completely to keep your waiting slots totally empty. Do not touch any of the green or orange blocks sitting in the tray yet because those colors are trapped deep inside the picture.

Step 2: Manage the first pair of connected boxes safely.

Soon a connected pair featuring a light blue twenty three and a purple twelve will slide into your tray. You have a choice to make here. The purple part of the rainbow touches the very bottom edge of the screen just above the initial layer of sky. Once your first wave of ants eats away the bottom blue layer the purple band becomes slightly exposed. Pull this connected pair only after you see raw purple pixels touching the empty space. The light blue half will send ants to continue eating the sky while a smaller group heads straight for the base of the rainbow to clear the twelve purple tiles.

Step 3: Break through the top layer of the sky background.

With the bottom and left sides mostly clear you need to expose the upper portions of the rainbow. Pull the light blue fifty four and the light blue sixty blocks. This sends a massive swarm of ants wrapping around the exposed edges. They will travel all the way to the top left corner and begin eating the sky tiles above the rainbow. Watching this massive swarm go to work is incredibly satisfying. This move is critical because it finally breaks the protective shell around the red and pink bands of the rainbow allowing you to start using other colors from the tray.

Step 4: Attack the outer bands of the rainbow.

Now that the top left corner of the sky is gone you have a direct path to the red and pink curves. Pull the pink forty six and the red forty five blocks into your waiting slots. The ants will march all the way up the left side of the board and begin eating the rainbow from the top down. While they work on the red and pink bands you can pull another light blue block to keep the background clearing process going. Keeping ants active on two different colors at once ensures you burn through the massive one thousand tile count at a steady pace.

Step 5: Expose and clear the sun in the corner.

As the top layer of sky continues to vanish the bright yellow and green sun in the top right corner finally opens up. Pull the yellow thirty block and the green forty three block. Your ants will now split their focus. One group will travel up the left side to continue eating the rainbow while a new group marches up the right side to attack the sun. Always watch your five waiting slots during this split action. If you pull a yellow block before the top right sky is completely gone it will jam your tray and ruin your run.

Step 6: Work your way down the inner rainbow spectrum.

The picture is now breaking apart beautifully. The outer red and pink bands are mostly gone and the sun is disappearing rapidly. It is time to clear the middle layers of the rainbow. Pull the orange thirty four block and the dark blue twenty four block. The orange tiles sit right next to the red ones so the path is wide open. The dark blue band is buried a bit deeper but the early work you did on the purple base ensures the ants have a clear road. Let the numbers tick down and watch the entire left half of the rainbow melt away.

Step 7: Clear the massive late stage connected pair.

Deep into the level a huge connected pair will appear in your tray. It features a red fifty block linked to a light blue sixty block. This is a very dangerous pair if you pull it at the wrong time. You must ensure you have exactly fifty red tiles exposed on the board before you drag this pair up. Look at the base of the rainbow on the right side. Once the sky falls away from that right edge the rest of the red band becomes vulnerable. Pull the connected pair and watch two massive swarms wipe out the remaining bulk of the picture.

Step 8: Sweep up the final scattered pixels to win.

The board is now mostly empty space with just a few scattered dots of color remaining. You will see small fragments of the sun and the very bottom tips of the rainbow. The tray will offer small single digit blocks for this final cleanup phase. Pull the purple four the light blue twenty and the red five blocks. The remaining ants will fan out across the board hunting down the last little pixels. Keep feeding these tiny blocks into the slots until the counter hits zero and the picture is completely clear.

Final Thought

This level requires serious patience in the early stages because that light blue sky acts like a solid brick wall. You have to resist the temptation to pull those colorful blocks until the massive light blue border is completely gone. Pacing your moves and keeping your waiting slots empty is the true key to victory here.
