Pixel Flow Level 173 Walkthrough
Within the growing midgame, Level 173 highlights a core habit of the game: good clears come from pacing and reuse, not from constant tapping. A small delay early often saves the whole run later.

Quick Solution
Level 173 becomes easier once you stop treating every front-of-queue pig as urgent. Prioritize the launch that protects conveyor space, preserves good ammo, and sets up the next color rotation.
Strategy Analysis
Level 173 gets messy when convenience beats priority. The easiest immediate hit often belongs to a color that should have been saved for a quieter conveyor cycle.
Steps
Take a second at the start of Level 173 and identify the pig you would least like to strand in the waiting slots.
Let the first pig shape the rhythm of Level 173; a neat opening makes every later recycle more useful.
Keep the more reusable color in reserve if replaying it now would only steal space from the next key launch.
Once the opening stabilizes, clear in a sequence that keeps the belt open for the next meaningful pig.
Common Mistakes
- Late chaos in Level 173 is usually the result of an impatient first phase, not a mysterious final mistake.
- A frequent mistake on Level 173 is spending the safest-looking color first, then discovering the important pig has nowhere clean to go.
- Level 173 often falls apart when leftover ammo is treated like clutter instead of future value.
- Players lose tempo on Level 173 by choosing immediate cube removal over a healthier next cycle.
Extra Tips
- If the conveyor keeps clogging on Level 173, protect space first and damage second.
- On Level 173, a pig with leftover ammo is often more useful than a pig that scored one quick extra hit.
