Read from the board image on this page, last measured 2026-09-25. Colour names are read off the hex shown beside them and may differ from the name the game gives that block. The game decides which block you can feed, so treat this as what the board costs to clear, not as a tap order.

How to read the Level 289 board

Start with the biggest colour: dark grey

dark grey covers 14.0% of the board — more than any other colour on this board. A block only clears once every matching cell is eaten, so the biggest colour is the slowest to drain and the one worth seating as soon as the queue offers it.

red cannot finish early

Every cell of red is walled in by dark grey, orange and 2 other colours in the board image. That part of the block stays stuck until the surrounding colour is eaten, so expect a long stall rather than a failed run.

Ignore the empty background

The cream area is 34.1% of the board and sits outside the picture. No block was measured against it, so it does not count towards the clear.
