Colony Flow Level 322 Walkthrough Solution & Guides | How to solve Colony Flow 322

Welcome to Colony Flow Level 322. You face a pixel art picture of a bearded man holding a large brown chest right in the center of the screen. You need to clear the background and the man without filling all five waiting slots in your tray. I will walk you through the exact sequence of moves to keep the ants moving and the board completely open.

Colony Flow Level 322 Overview

What You Are Working With

The board features a large pixel art image surrounded by a thick border of white background tiles. The character has dark purple hair and dark purple pants. He also has a skin colored face and a light blue shirt. He stands on an orange platform near the bottom of the board. Right in the middle of his body is a large brown chest tile with the number 33 on it. In the top right corner of the white background you will find a golden key. Down in your tray you have standard numbered blocks of white, dark purple, light blue, skin color, and brown. You will also deal with two special mechanics in the tray. Several blocks are joined together as connected boxes. Other blocks have padlocks on them and require the golden key to unlock them for use.

What It Takes to Clear Level 322 Board

To beat this level you must manage your tray space perfectly. You lose if all five waiting slots fill up and no ants can reach their food. The connected boxes make this challenging because they pull multiple blocks into your slots at the exact same time. You must collect the golden key early to unlock the padlocked blocks at the bottom of the tray. You also need to break down the large brown chest in two separate attacks to reveal the hidden light blue shirt tiles underneath. The level ends when every single tile is eaten and the ants retreat into the nest hole.

Colony Flow Level 322 Step by Step Solution

Step 1: You must clear the outer white background and the bottom pants to open up physical space.

Start by targeting the massive white background that surrounds the character. Look at your tray and pull the white block holding the number 20 and the white block holding the number 22. Pulling these sends a huge swarm of white ants up the board to chew away the borders. When you pull a block the ants stream out of the dark nest hole at the bottom of the screen. Each ant subtracts one number from the block in your waiting slot. The slot only becomes empty and available again when the block number reaches exactly zero. While the white ants are working you should pull a dark purple block with the number 20. These purple ants will head straight for the dark pants and shoes at the bottom of the character. Clearing the white background and the bottom purple tiles at the same time is the best way to open the board early. This creates multiple open paths for future ants to travel. Keeping multiple paths open ensures your ants never get stuck and your waiting slots never jam.

Step 2: You will collect the golden key from the top right to unlock your tray blocks.

As the white background disappears your white ants will march toward the top right section of the board. The golden key rests directly on one of these white background tiles. You do not need a special key block to collect it. The white ants simply eat the white tile underneath the key and you automatically collect it into your inventory. Collecting the key immediately removes the padlocks from the locked blocks resting at the bottom of your tray. This gives you full access to the remaining purple and white blocks you need to progress. Always prioritize sending ants toward the key early so you never run out of playable blocks. If you ignore the key your tray will eventually offer nothing but locked blocks and you will fail the level.

Step 3: You need to manage the connected boxes carefully to clear the face and shirt.

Look at your tray and notice the blocks joined together by wooden links. These are the connected boxes. When you pull one of them the entire linked group moves into your waiting slots at once. You must have enough empty slots to fit the whole group or you will instantly fill your tray and risk a jam. Wait until your initial white and purple blocks empty out completely. Then pull the connected group containing the skin colored 15 block and the light blue 10 block. The skin colored ants will march up the board to eat the face and arms. The light blue ants will follow and start clearing the outer edges of the shirt. Monitor your remaining slots closely while these connected boxes drain down to zero.

Step 4: You must attack the large brown chest in the center using the first brown block.

Right in the middle of the board sits a large brown chest tile bearing the number 33. This chest acts like a giant food block that covers the center of the shirt. Locate the brown block with the number 18 in your tray and pull it. The brown ants will swarm the chest and reduce its number from 33 down to 15. You cannot finish the chest right now because you do not have another brown block available yet. Just let the chest sit at 15 while you focus your attention on clearing other colors. The chest will remain on the board taking up space but it will not spread or cause any direct harm to your colony.

Step 5: You will clear the orange platform and reduce the thick hair using multiple colors at once.

Your next move is to pull the orange blocks from the tray. These orange ants will travel to the bottom of the board and eat the orange platform beneath the man. At the exact same time you should pull more dark purple blocks from your newly unlocked tray slots. Direct these dark purple ants to target the thick hair and beard on the character head. Managing two different colors at once keeps your ants flowing efficiently and empties your tray faster. Make sure the dark purple and orange ants have clear routes to their respective targets. Since you already cleared the outer white background the ants will easily navigate the open space without bumping into dead ends.

Step 6: You must destroy the remaining brown chest to reveal the hidden shirt tiles underneath.

A second brown block with the number 15 will eventually slide into view in your tray. Pull this brown block to send a second wave of brown ants straight at the chest. These 15 ants will exactly match the remaining number on the chest and destroy it completely. Once the brown chest vanishes it reveals more light blue shirt tiles hidden directly underneath it. This explains why you could not finish the light blue shirt earlier in the level. The solid brown chest was physically blocking access to those tiles. Now that the chest is entirely gone the board is fully open for the final cleanup phase.

Step 7: You will pull the final connected groups to clean up the remaining pixels and finish the board.

You now have full access to all remaining tiles on the board. You will see more connected boxes sitting in your tray. Make absolutely sure you have at least three empty waiting slots before pulling the larger linked groups. Pull the remaining light blue blocks and the last skin colored blocks. The light blue ants will swarm in to eat the newly revealed shirt tiles in the center of the chest area. The skin colored ants will finish off the very last pieces of the face and ears. Finally you can pull the last dark purple blocks to clear out the remaining pixels of the hair. Watch your tray carefully and only pull a block when you know the ants have a direct path to their food. Once the final pixel is eaten the remaining ants will retreat into the nest hole and you will win the level.

Final Thought

Colony Flow Level 322 tests your ability to juggle connected boxes and locked items without jamming your tray. Take your time and make sure every color has an open path before you tap a new block. If you find any of these steps hard to follow in text I encourage you to watch the video above this article to see the exact timing in action.
