Colony Flow! Level 790 Strategy Guide

To clear Level 790 in Colony Flow!, prioritize clearing the bottom two rows of the grid first to trigger piece drops, snake connection paths along the board perimeter to navigate fixed obstacles, and delay clearing grouped colors until you can link them in a single long chain.

Clearing Bottom Rows to Prevent Blockages

The primary bottleneck on Level 790 is color blockage caused by uncollected pieces lingering at the base of the grid. Because new pieces drop from the top, leaving unmatched colors at the bottom restricts board movement and leaves isolated single pieces later in the stage.

• Scan the bottom two rows first: Before making any move in the center or top, check the lowest rows for immediate pair or group connections.
• Prioritize horizontal bottom matches: If forced to choose between a vertical match in the middle grid and a horizontal match on the bottom row, choose the bottom match to pull new pieces down across multiple columns.
• Maintain active board flow: Clearing lower foundation rows keeps pieces shifting continuously, reducing the chance of creating stranded pieces in upper segments.

Routing Paths Around Fixed Obstacles

Level 790 features environmental obstacles that block straight-line connections across the board. Attempting to force connections through these dividers consumes moves without resolving the puzzle.

1. Divide the board into sub-puzzles: Treat each section separated by a divider as an independent area. Complete local connections on one side before trying to bridge across to the other side.
2. Use anchor pieces at corners: Identify pieces positioned near the edges of obstacles to pivot connections around corners.
3. Snake along the perimeter: Route long paths around the outer edge of the grid rather than through the center to bypass dividers with fewer wasted moves.

Maximizing Chain Efficiency and Final Clearance

Conserving your move count requires clearing full color clusters at once rather than making small, incremental matches.

• Consolidate color clusters: When multiple pieces of the same color are scattered near each other, wait until you can draw a single continuous path through the entire group before executing the move.
• Balance color distribution mid-game: If one color begins to dominate the board, clear a large chain of that color early to prevent it from clogging space for other matches.
• Manage final isolated blocks: When approaching your final remaining moves, evaluate remaining connections against your move counter. Clear colors that physically block access to other matches first, even if it requires a shorter chain.
