Food Hunt Level 461 Walkthrough
Begin Food Hunt level 461 with dark grey, follow with yellow and light blue, and save orange and pink until their enclosing colors are gone. The picture is a green frog framed by sunflower petals, holding a pink lollipop, with spiders on webs over its eyes. Work through its 10 colors in this order; dark grey covers 20.4 percent of the field and needs the earliest start.
Five slots have to accommodate several colors that cannot finish until their neighbors disappear. Dark grey, green, blue and dark cyan all spend time waiting, while cream also has covered pixels. Orange and pink are completely enclosed and can occupy two places without reaching any food if selected too soon. Keep room for the yellow and light blue work that opens the layers around the petals and the frog.

Sunflower Frog Answer Key with Late Pink
Dark grey, yellow, light blue (cyan), green and dark pink, then cream and blue. Orange, pink and dark cyan belong to the closing stretch after their routes are exposed.
Use the opening trio to reduce the large area and remove the layers around the petals before accepting too many waiting boxes. Green and dark pink follow as the queue offers them, with cream and blue later working on newly accessible pixels. The last group is defined by access rather than a guaranteed final single color: dark cyan needs a place late, and the completely enclosed orange and pink must wait for their surroundings. The pink lollipop is among the final parts to disappear.
Walkthrough from Sunflower Petals to the Lollipop
- Give dark grey a head start. Select dark grey at its first appearance because it is the largest area at 20.4 percent of the whole field. Its box leaves only when every matching pixel has been eaten, making this a long job even if some cells are immediately accessible. Beginning early allows the dark grey ants to work while you introduce the following colors. Do not wait for this entire area to finish before looking at useful yellow and light blue choices in the queue.
Video walkthrough of level 461
The video shows dark grey starting the frog clear while yellow and light blue open the sunflower layers. Follow the later cream, blue and dark cyan work through to the enclosed orange and pink lollipop pixels.
- Open around the petals. Bring in yellow and light blue, also described as cyan for this level, after the dark grey opening. Their ants remove upper layers around the sunflower petals and reveal routes to the food below. Every cleared neighboring layer reduces the barriers affecting green and dark cyan later in the run. Keep attention on the offered boxes so that this opening work continues instead of being displaced by an early orange or pink choice with no reachable pixels.
- Add green and dark pink. Select green once the yellow and light blue work has exposed parts of the frog's area. Green still waits on covered pixels, but its accessible sections can now shrink as the ants reach them. Dark pink follows alongside it in the queue and eats the pixels opened by the earlier colors. Preserve at least one empty slot while managing these selections so a needed working color is not trapped behind a full set of waiting boxes.
- Use cream before the deeper blue work. Cream has 64 percent of its pixels covered, less than the more strongly delayed colors in this picture. Blue has 82 percent covered, so more of its work depends on neighboring sections disappearing. Accept these choices as the queue presents them and their accessible areas can be eaten, without holding a useful offered color for no reason. The remaining enclosed pixels finish after the neighboring work opens their paths, with blue needing more patience than cream.
- Keep a late place for dark cyan. Dark cyan has 83 percent of its pixels covered and progresses slowly while the enclosure remains. Reserve a slot for it near the end rather than using every place on other waiting colors. Most neighboring areas should be gone by this stage, giving the ants access to its remaining food. Continue watching the changing paths around the leftovers instead of assuming that the first visible dark cyan cells represent all the work its box still has to do.
- Release orange and the pink lollipop. Orange and pink are completely blocked and make the longest unproductive early commitments. Select their boxes only when the colors surrounding their pixels have been eaten. The lollipop's pink pixels disappear among the last parts of the picture, while orange clears with the board's remaining food. Keep these colors for the final opening of their paths instead of letting them occupy two of the five slots throughout the earlier petal and frog work.
Reading the Frog's Covered Pixels Before Filling Five Slots
Compare the partly covered colors before concluding that every pause means the same thing. Cream is covered across 64 percent of its area, blue across 82 percent, dark cyan across 83 percent and green across 84 percent. Cream can therefore have more accessible work than the other delayed colors, even while all of them still have food behind neighbors. Check which surrounding patches are disappearing and allow those changes to expose the next matching cells.
Orange and pink require a different decision because both start entirely closed. Leave them for the final stretch and avoid having more than two or three waiting boxes active together. The queue below the picture changes as boxes clear, so follow its available colors instead of guessing a tap order from the frog alone. If all five places are occupied, a new box cannot enter; retaining at least one reserve place through the middle keeps that restriction from stopping your selections.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you beat Food Hunt level 461?
Start dark grey at 20.4 percent of the board, then use yellow and light blue to open the sunflower layers. Work through green, dark pink, cream and blue while leaving room for late dark cyan, orange and pink.
Which box should you select first on level 461?
Dark grey is the largest of the 10 colors, covering 20.4 percent of the field. Starting it first lets the ants clear that area in parallel with yellow and light blue instead of leaving the largest job for later.
Why does the orange box wait so long?
Orange has no reachable pixels until the neighboring colors are eaten, and pink is completely enclosed too. Selecting both early can occupy two of the five places with no useful progress, so keep orange for the closing stage.
How many slots can safely hold waiting boxes?
Keep waiting boxes to two or three at once and retain at least one spare place through the middle. Green at 84 percent covered, blue at 82 percent and dark cyan at 83 percent can all hold slots while their neighbors clear.
What if the pink box is not shrinking?
Pink is fully surrounded, so let the neighboring yellow, light blue and cream work open its routes. Cream is only 64 percent covered, making it less restricted than the completely sealed pink lollipop, which clears among the last parts.
