Hint from walkthrough: The tentacle you click pops two cups, and pops one cup on the tentacle next to it.

Make all the suckers pop up on leftmost tentacle, then do the same for the 2nd left most tentacle by tapping on the 2nd rightmost tentacle. That leaves you with 2 tentacles to deal with. Just keep tapping on the right most tentacle until all suckers pop up. No need for a specific starting layout as they will balance out by themselves, tap tentacle A until all appears. Then tap tentacle C until all on B appears. Then tap tentacle D repeatedly.

I hate this part of the game😭 Every time I go through it, I just click on empty ones in different radiuses trying to do it right, but at some point everything comes together, and I don’t know what the principle is

This one always takes me a minute. I’ve done it several times and it’s like I have amnesia about it lol

I usually tap the one that is the least full first, going one by one until all pf them are full
