Level: 993 - a pixel-art white pup in a dark top hat and a striped scarf, standing on a tan hill beside a signpost that reads 1900

How the Level Works

1. Tap a color block in the bottom queue to send it into one of the five slots above. The queue runs in four independent columns, three blocks deep; 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. Pixels can be walled in. A block can sit with a handful of pixels left for two 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.

4. 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 5:57.

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 once it settles. The numbers below run in tap order, not by slot: each of the five slots refills many times.

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 short blocks (Purple 6, Purple 5, Red 6, Red 5, Yellow 11, Cyan 9) are the best slot-fillers.

2. Teal 29 (step 25, 1:37.5) is the level's signature stall. It drains from 29 to 12 in a few seconds and then sits frozen at 12 in slot 2 for two minutes, freeing it only at 3:42.5. From 1:37.5 to 3:42.5 you are playing with four slots, so plan the mid-game around it.

3. Magenta is the slowest color of the level. Three Magenta blocks each lock a slot for the best part of a minute: Magenta 15 (step 8, 0:20.5) holds slot 4 for 48 seconds, Magenta 10 (step 13, 0:38.5) holds slot 1 for 49.5 seconds, and Magenta 12 (step 31, 1:59) holds slot 1 for 46 seconds. The two late Magenta blocks (steps 68 and 79) are short and drain at once.

4. Dark grey is the picture's outline - 337 pixels over 8 blocks, the second-largest color of the level after Green. The two heavy ones are Dark grey 68 (step 60, 4:05) and Dark grey 80 (step 67, 4:32.5, the biggest block of the level); both land after 4:00, when enough of the outline has been exposed to drain them.

5. Red only unlocks late. Red 6 (step 64, 4:27.5) lands in slot 1 and holds it until 5:48.5 - 81 seconds - and Red 5 (step 74, 5:21.5) holds slot 4 until 5:48. Do not expect a Red block to recycle a slot before the endgame.

6. The two Blue blocks are small. Blue 7 (step 39, 2:25) and Blue 8 (step 43, 2:58) eat the scarf's blue stripes and free their slots within 15 to 30 seconds, so place them whenever a slot frees.

7. The last stretch is a waiting game. Nothing new lands between 4:55.5 and 5:21.5: Tan 15 (step 63), Dark grey 24 (step 71), Red 6 (step 64) and Cyan 12 (step 72) hold four of the five slots, and slot 2 sits empty from 5:10 to 5:21.5. The final six blocks then all land between 5:48 and 5:53.

8. Finale. The last block you place is White 15 at 5:53, but the last pixel on the board is Magenta, eaten at 5:57.5. The Level Complete screen follows at 5:58.5 - no failed taps, no wasted moves.
