🖼️ Picture groups

This level has 3 picture groups. Solve the smaller group first; it collapses into a single picture tile that you then place in the bigger topic. How picture groups work.

ANT FEATURES🖼️ ANTINSECTS

Solve Ant Features and the four tiles turn into a picture of ANT. That picture then counts as a word in Insects.

An ant — the four tiles are related to it.

GUITAR PARTS🖼️ GUITARMUSICAL INSTRUMENTS

Solve Guitar Parts and the four tiles turn into a picture of GUITAR. That picture then counts as a word in Musical Instruments.

A guitar — the four tiles are parts of one.

FLAMINGO FEATURES🖼️ FLAMINGOBIRDS

Solve Flamingo Features and the four tiles turn into a picture of FLAMINGO. That picture then counts as a word in Birds.

A flamingo — the four tiles are related to it.

How to solve level 166

  1. Scan all 36 tiles before moving anything and name the topics you can already see.
  2. Lock in the most obvious row first. In this level, a good starting point is Birds, one of the game's most common topics.
  3. Solve the picture groups early. Each one frees up a slot in its umbrella topic.
  4. With 9 rows, expect overlapping themes. Use the Topic Hint before you use the Magic Wand.
  5. Leave the most abstract topic for last. By then it is usually the only four tiles left.
