Food Hunt Level 949 Walkthrough & Answers

Level: 949 - a pixel-art sewing kit: three thread spools (blue, magenta and green) on a rust-red cloth, an orange thimble and a silver needle in the lower half, a red thread heart on the right, all inside a light-blue border

How the Level Works

1. Tap a color block in the bottom queue to send it into one of the five slots above the hole. The queue runs in four independent columns, three blocks visible each; a column scrolls up only when its own front block is taken.

2. Ants of that color pour out of the hole and eat every reachable pixel of the matching color on the picture; the number printed on the block counts down while they work. At 0 the block vanishes and frees its slot.

3. The queue stays four columns deep for most of the run. It still holds ten or more blocks at 6:10 and only thins out in the last two minutes; the final block is taken at 9:31.

4. Pixels can be walled in. A block can sit with a handful of pixels left for two or three minutes while the rest of its color is buried under other colors. That is normal - the pixels fall the moment the blocking color is gone.

5. Eat the entire picture to win. There is no move limit, so the order below only decides how fast the five slots recycle. One clean run takes 9:35.

Complete Block Order (Which Color First, Then Which)

Timestamps are when the block lands in a slot. Count is the number printed on the block as it lands. The numbers below run in tap order, not by slot: each of the five slots refills many times.

Phase 1 - The Opening Six (0:03.5 - 0:06.5)

Phase 2 - Topping the Slots Up (0:07 - 0:29)

Phase 3 - The Second Wave (0:43.5 - 0:55.5)

Phase 4 - Closing the First Minute (1:05.5 - 1:23)

Phase 5 - Back in Action After a 48-Second Stall (2:11.5 - 2:28.5)

Phase 6 - Red 29 and the Third Wave (2:35.5 - 3:29)

Phase 7 - The First Star Block (3:52 - 4:42)

Phase 8 - Slot 1 Locks for Three Minutes (4:49 - 5:23.5)

Phase 9 - The Big Cyan Block (5:31.5 - 6:07)

Phase 10 - The Star 63 (6:10 - 6:34)

Phase 11 - Yellow 19 Locks Slot 2 (6:39.5 - 7:04)

Phase 12 - The Long Middle (7:07 - 7:35.5)

Phase 13 - The Third Star Block (7:46 - 8:18)

Phase 14 - The Last Slow Blocks (8:31 - 9:05)

Phase 15 - The Final Sweep Begins (9:10.5 - 9:21.5)

Phase 16 - The Last Five (9:24 - 9:31)

The very last pixel to fall is Teal: the dark green-blue bands on the left spool are the final colour on the board, and they go at 9:34.5. The picture is completely empty at 9:35.5, and the Level Complete screen appears one second later at 9:36.

Pro Tips

1. Keep all five slots full. The picture is cleared by volume, not by order, so the only real waste is an idle slot: the moment a block finishes, tap the next one from whichever queue column is ready. The cheap slot-fillers are Rust 5, Mauve 3, White 5, White 10 and White 13.

2. Slot 4 is blocked from the very start. Tan 15 (step 5, 0:05.5) lands in slot 4 and does not finish until 3:54 - it holds that slot for 228 seconds, the longest stay of the level. From 0:05.5 to 3:54 you are playing with four slots, so plan the opening around it.

3. Slot 3 is almost never empty. Rust 5, Rust 35, Dark grey 35 (0:55.5 to 2:15), Tan 25 (2:35.5 to 4:01.5), Tan 13 (5:31.5 to 7:34.5) and the star-marked Red 49 (7:46 to 9:29.5) hand that slot over almost without a gap.

4. Three blocks hold a slot for over a minute. Cyan 24 (step 54, 5:57) sits in slot 1 until 8:57 - three minutes, the longest of the run. Yellow 19 (step 66, 6:39.5) holds slot 2 for 158 seconds until 9:17.5, and Dark grey 23 (step 83, 8:01.5) holds slot 5 for 91.5 seconds until 9:33. Do not read a frozen number as a bug.

5. The stall at 1:23 is real. Nothing new lands for 48 seconds (1:23 to 2:11.5) because all five slots are occupied by slow blocks. There is nothing to do but wait - the queue is not stuck.

6. Three blocks carry a yellow star on a red face. They are the level's highlighted blocks: Red star 49 (step 44, 4:41.5), Red star 63 (step 60, 6:14.5, the biggest block of the level) and Red star 49 (step 79, 7:46). Tap them like any other block when their turn comes.

7. Orange carries the most pixels. Orange is 270 pixels over 14 blocks, and the heavy ones - Orange 24 (step 38, 3:29) and Orange 31 (step 99, 9:25) - land after the outline is open and drain fast. Orange 24 locks slot 1 for 66 seconds.

8. The last 40 seconds are pure waiting. Nothing new lands after 9:31 (step 102): Teal 25, Mauve 17, Tan 14, Green 18, Rust 24, Orange 13, Rust 15, White 13, Rust 24, Orange 31, Tan 23, Rust 25 and Teal 17 are all still on the board, and the picture does not finish emptying until 9:35.5.

9. Finale. The last block you place is Teal 17 at 9:31, and the last pixel on the board is also Teal, eaten at 9:34.5. The Level Complete screen follows at 9:36 - no failed taps, no wasted moves.
