Step by step

Picture Composition

A five-point starfish with three layers from outside in:

  • Orange: outermost outline (tiles 12, 14)

  • Yellow: middle body (tile 15, three copies)

  • White: 3×4 center (tile 4, three copies)

Step by step

Removal Order

This is the tutorial level — the key idea is "the outer layer covers the inner one, so work from outside in":

  • Tap Orange 12 first: ants carry away the outermost orange edge (see f_003).

  • Then Orange 14: orange comes in two batches; the second clears the rest of the outer ring.

  • Next Yellow 15: with the ring gone the yellow body is exposed — keep tapping yellow (a "Use Speed Up" prompt pops up at f_004; tap the 2x button top-right to speed the ants).

  • Finally White 4: the center is removed last; tap the three white tiles in turn to finish (f_007 → f_009).

Tips

  • The queue only has 5 slots (not an issue at 3 colors); remember the rule: always remove the color that sits on top first.
