Colony Flow Level 1244 Walkthrough Solution & Guides | How to solve Colony Flow 1244

Colony Flow Level 1244 presents a beautiful pixel art picture of a tall house with a bright red roof and a vibrant blue sky. You start with a board packed tight with colors that block your ants from reaching the center of the structure. I played this board multiple times to figure out the exact order of colors you need to pull from the tray. Read on to see exactly how to dismantle this house pixel by pixel without jamming your waiting slots.

Colony Flow Level 1244 Overview

What You Are Working With

You face a massive picture that fills almost the entire board. The top half consists of a light blue sky dotted with fluffy white clouds. The main subject is a tall building with a sweeping red roof and dark purple walls. White windows and light purple trim decorate the front of the house. A bright green lawn and large green bushes surround the foundation. Down at the bottom of your screen your tray holds blocks matching all these colors. You will see high number blocks like forty five count light blue and forty two count white blocks mixed with lower count green and purple blocks. You have five empty waiting slots above your tray.

What It Takes to Clear Level 1244 Board

You win this level by breaking down every single tile of the house and the surrounding landscape until the board is completely empty. The challenge comes from the layout of the picture. The sky and the grass wrap around the house and block your ants from reaching the inner walls. You will lose if you pull inner colors like dark purple or black too early. Those blocks will sit stuck in your five waiting slots because their matching tiles are blocked by the sky and grass. You must peel the picture away from the outside edges first. Every move you make needs to open a new path so your ants can constantly stream out of the nest.

Colony Flow Level 1244 Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Clear the outer sky and clouds first to open the side paths

Start your game by pulling the forty five count light blue blocks from your tray. The light blue sky covers the entire upper half of the board and blocks access to the roof. Your ants will swarm out of the nest and follow the completely open paths to the top edges of the board. Watch the block numbers count down quickly as the ants consume the sky tiles. You must clear this massive outer layer before you can even think about touching the house itself. Bring up a white block next to clear the fluffy clouds. The white clouds sit right next to the light blue sky. Clearing both colors opens a huge vertical path down both sides of the board. Your waiting slots will stay completely clear because the ants have plenty of surface area to attack at once.

Step 2: Remove the green bushes along the bottom edge of the board

Address the heavy greenery at the base of the board next. Pull a thirty count green block from the tray into an empty waiting slot. The green grass and thick bushes border the bottom edge of the house and block all access to the lower ground floor walls. Green ants will rush out of the nest and start breaking down these lower tiles. Keep an eye on your waiting slots as the ants work. You will need to bring up a second green block when the first one runs out of numbers to ensure the bushes are completely gone. Pulling these green blocks opens up the bottom perimeter of the board just like the light blue blocks opened the top section.

Step 3: Target the massive red roof sitting at the top of the house

Shift your focus to the massive red roof covering the main structure. With the sky mostly gone the red roof is fully exposed and ready for your ants. Grab a thirty five count red block and pull it into a waiting slot. Red ants will climb straight up the newly cleared side paths to reach the very top of the house. The roof is exceptionally thick and requires multiple high numbered red blocks to fully clear away. You will notice the red ants chipping away at the pointed top section first before moving down the sloping sides. Let the red block sit in the waiting slot until its number reaches zero. This deliberate patience guarantees your slots never jam up with unused colors.

Step 4: Strip away the dark purple siding of the main house structure

Peel away the dark purple siding of the house now that the roof is shrinking. The walls of the building consist primarily of dark purple tiles. Pull a thirty five count purple block from your tray to get started. The purple ants will march straight up the middle path to start eating the solid walls. The house is incredibly tall and has many thick purple tiles blocking the center. You will see the purple block in your waiting slot slowly tick down as the ants navigate the remaining obstacles. Do not panic if this step takes a little extra time. As long as the purple ants are actively moving you are perfectly safe from a slot jam. They will eat around the white windows leaving those specific elements exposed for your next moves.

Step 5: Clear out the white windows to create internal paths

Focus on the white windows to break up the solid mass of the building. The house features several large white windows set deep into the purple walls. Once the purple ants have exposed the outer edges of these windows you can safely pull a forty five count white block. White ants will head straight up the board and devour the glass panes. Clearing the windows breaks up the solid shape of the house and creates new internal gaps. These new gaps act as shortcuts for your ants to travel through. This speeds up the whole second half of the level. Your white block will drain its numbers rapidly because there are many window tiles waiting to be eaten.

Step 6: Send in light purple ants to handle the decorative trim

Direct your attention to the light purple trim surrounding the doors and windows. Pull a fifteen count light purple block from the bottom row of your tray. The house has small decorative borders that require this very specific color. Light purple ants will squeeze perfectly through the gaps left by the missing windows to reach these delicate details. The number on this block is smaller because there are relatively few light purple tiles on the board. The ants will finish this precise job fast. When the light purple block completely disappears from your waiting slot you will have fresh room to bring up another color without any risk.

Step 7: Send out teal ants to handle the remaining window sections

Deploy your teal ants to tackle the tiny window accents. There are a few teal blocks in your tray including a six count teal block. Pull it up into a slot to clear the small teal accents bordering the lower windows. The ants will march up and handle these remaining tiles in a matter of seconds. Removing the teal sections breaks the house down even further and exposes the background. You will start to see the bare board shining through the middle of the picture. Always wait for the current ants to finish eating before you flood your waiting slots with new colors.

Step 8: Send in more red ants to finish the front door and lower trim

Clean up the bottom of the house by pulling another red block. The ground floor features a large red door and some surrounding red brick trim. Pull a twenty four count red block to handle this lower section. Red ants will clean up the bottom middle of the board without having to walk very far. They will rapidly eat the door and the small decorative roof hanging over the entrance. This targeted attack leaves only a few scattered pieces of the house remaining on the board. Your waiting slots remain completely safe because the door is entirely exposed at this late stage of the level.

Step 9: Deploy black ants to eat the dark outlines and fine details

Unleash the black ants to consume the dark gray and black outline details. You will find a seventeen count black block near the end of your tray. Pull it directly up into a waiting slot. Black ants will crawl out to consume the dark lines that outline the structural shape of the house. These lines are spread out widely across the middle and bottom sections of the board. The black ants will utilize the completely open board to reach every single scattered piece effortlessly. Watch the black block count all the way down to zero. This action clears the final major hurdle of the level and leaves only scraps behind.

Step 10: Clean up the final leftover white and green scattered tiles

Finish the level by cleaning up the final leftover white and green tiles. You will have a few stray white cloud pieces in the sky and a tiny patch of green grass left on the ground. Pull your final white and green blocks to let the ants sweep the board completely clean. A fourteen count white block and a three count green block will easily finish the job. The ants will march directly to these last few exposed tiles without any resistance. The entire house and landscape will completely disappear from the screen. Your waiting slots will empty out one last time and you will successfully win the level.

Final Thought

Colony Flow Level 1244 requires you to be patient and methodically peel the picture from the outside edges to the inner walls. Keep your waiting slots clear by only pulling colors that have an open path ready for the ants. I highly recommend watching the video above this article if you find any of these steps hard to visualize through text alone.
