How to Beat Bus Fever Party Level 106
Level 106 has a big lot of about 55 buses built around two tall stacks of horizontal buses, and it exists in two layouts: one with a row of small buses at the bottom, and one with two purple garages sitting in that row. In both, the stack on the left points left and the stack on the right points right, so both can be opened from the sides.
This page gives six steps for each layout with screenshots, a video of the classic one, and the places where runs stop. The habits that win are the same in both: take the buses with open road first, send long buses only on cue, and never fill the last grey spot.
| Layouts in the game | 2: two tall stacks of buses with a grid of upright buses between them, and the same stacks with two purple garages at the bottom center |
|---|---|
| Buses at the start | about 55, plus the buses queued inside the garages in the second layout |
| Waiting spots | VIP, 4 grey, 3 green with a plus in both layouts |
| Special elements | garage layout only: 2 purple garages with counters at 4, falling to 3 by the end of the run |
| Colors | about 7, shuffled between runs |
| Boosters on screen | VIP, Arrange, Jumble |
Garages or No Garages
Check the bottom of the lot. If a row of small upright buses runs across it, with two long buses standing upright in the middle of that row and no garages anywhere, you have the classic layout. If two purple garages stand at the bottom center, each with a 4 on it, and the small buses sit on both sides of them, you have the newer layout.
Both layouts are in the game right now, and the stacks, the arrows and the waiting row look the same in each. The colors of the buses and of the passengers are shuffled between runs, so every step below goes by position, not by color.
The Classic Layout
About 55 buses fill the lot. A loose group of tilted buses sits at the top, a tall stack of long horizontal buses with left arrows stands at the left, and a matching stack with right arrows stands at the right. Between the stacks is a grid of small upright buses, and a row of small buses with down arrows runs along the bottom, with two long upright buses in the middle of it.
Four grey spots, three green spots with a plus and VIP make up the waiting row. No garages stand on this lot, and nothing is hidden. Your colors may not match the pictures; since the steps follow position, any color set works.
Classic Layout Step by Step
-
Clear the top first. The tilted buses at the top have open road ahead. A bus is already driving into the row at the left, and the stacks have not moved. Take the top group one bus at a time before you touch the stacks.
Video solution for level 106
This video follows the classic layout of level 106, the one without garages, so watch it if your bottom row is made of small buses only.
-
Pull the left stack. The left stack points left and is open from the outside. Two long buses park with 24 and 16 to board, and the stack shortens. A long bus fills slowly, so take only what the queue calls.
-
Bring out the first short buses. With the left stack nearly gone, the small upright buses next to it can move. A bus with 4 passengers parks, and the row stays short. Keep one grey spot free.
-
Start on the right stack. Now the right stack comes down, again from the edge. Three buses are parked with 12, 4 and 16 passengers, so the row is nearly full. Tap again only after one of them has left.
-
Leave the bottom row for last. Only the center columns and the bottom row are left, plus a few buses at the top. Two buses wait in the row with 16 and 8. The upright buses in the middle can leave once the stack beside them is gone.
-
Finish the last columns. A long upright bus, a few small ones and the buses of the bottom row are all that remain. Four buses are parked with 40, 24, 24 and 24. Tap the rest as their colors reach the head of the queue.
The Two-Garage Layout
The stacks and the grid in the middle are the same as in the classic lot, but the bottom is different. Two purple garages stand side by side at the bottom center, each marked 4, and an upright bus waits above each of them. Small upright buses fill the row on either side: five on the left, two on the right.
Each number on a garage counts the buses still inside it. Whenever the front bus pulls away, another rolls out and the count falls by one. By the end of the run both garages show 3. The row of spots above the lot has VIP, four grey spots and three green ones that carry a plus, and parked buses carry 4, 8, 12, 16, 24 or 32 passengers.
Two-Garage Layout in Six Steps
-
Start from the top of the lot. The loose buses at the top, with their arrows pointing out of the lot, go first. Two buses park with 16 and 12 passengers to board, so two of the four grey spots are used. The stacks have not moved yet.
-
Open the right stack. The right stack points right and nothing blocks it, so it can be taken from the outside. One bus with 24 passengers parks, and the top of the stack shortens. Leave the left stack until the right one is thin.
-
Keep the grid for later. The upright buses between the stacks cannot leave yet, because their arrows point up at other buses. Keep tapping the stack. Two buses with 8 and 4 are in the row, which leaves two grey spots open.
-
Take the long ones as they come. A bus with 32 passengers is parked next to one with 12, so the row is half full. Do not add a third long bus until one of these has left. The left stack is still standing, and it is next.
-
Dismantle the left stack. The left stack points left, so its buses leave one by one from the outside. Only one bus is parked, with 4, and the garages still show 4. The center grid starts to open because its neighbors are gone.
-
Unload the garages. In the end the stacks are gone and the garages show 3, one bus out of each. Three buses are parked with 12, 16 and 16, and a handful of small buses remain around the garages. Send out the garage buses only when the queue is calling their color.
Where Level 106 Jams
The run fails when the grey spots fill with buses that the queue will want only much later. On level 106 the stacks make this easy, because their long buses are open from the outside and every one of them looks like a free tap. A long bus carries 24 or 32 passengers, and it sits in the row for a long time. With four grey spots, two long buses and two short ones are already a full row. Before every tap, compare the bus with the first and second colors in the queue, and send only a bus that matches one of them. A full row means waiting. The parked buses keep boarding, and a bus at zero drives off and returns its spot. Should none of the parked buses suit the queue, the game offers an extra spot or a restart, and replaying with a better sequence tends to be cheaper.
The second trap is the middle. The upright buses between the stacks point at each other, so tapping them early does nothing and only wastes your attention. Take the stacks down from the outside first, and the grid opens by itself. In the two-garage layout, also remember that every bus a garage rolls out needs a free spot.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the bottom of my level 106 look different from a friend's?
Level 106 has two layouts. In one the bottom is a row of small buses; in the other two purple garages with a 4 on each stand at the bottom center. The stacks and the rules are the same, so both are beaten with one plan.
Which stack should I clear first?
Whichever one has a bus at the head of the queue. The left stack points left and the right stack points right, and both are open from the outside. Pick the stack with the color you need, and keep the other as a reserve.
What do the numbers on the garages mean?
They count the buses still inside each garage. The bus in front rolls out when it is free and the next one takes its place, so the number falls by one each time. In the new layout both start at 4 and finish the run at 3.
How many spots are there in the waiting row on level 106?
Eight in all: VIP, four grey and three green spots with a plus. Green spots are locked at the start, which means four grey spots are what you really use. Keep to three parked buses at a time and one spot stays open for the queue.
Is level 106 possible without boosters?
Yes, both lots can be won without touching VIP, Arrange or Jumble. What matters is the order: outer buses first, long buses only on cue, and one grey spot always kept free for the next color.
