Water Color Sort

Water Color Sort is a relaxing yet brainy sorting puzzle where you organize colorful liquids until every tube holds a single, clean color. Each move is simple, but the solution often isn’t—especially once more colors, extra tubes, and tricky setups appear. If you enjoy logic challenges that reward planning and careful sequencing, this game turns a classic “sort and stack” idea into a smooth, satisfying color-mixing experience.

The goal is always clear: pour and rearrange the water so that each tube contains only one color. The challenge comes from limited space, the order colors are stacked in each tube, and the need to avoid blocking your future moves. When you make a mistake, you can undo, rethink, and keep progressing without losing momentum.

How to play

Controls are straightforward and work well on both desktop and mobile browsers:

• Select a tube with a tap or left mouse click.
• Tap/click another tube to pour the top color layer into it.
• You can usually pour only when the destination tube has space and the top color matches (or the tube is empty), depending on the level’s rules.

Your best results come from planning several moves ahead rather than pouring the first available option.

What makes the puzzles interesting

Water Color Sort stays engaging because it mixes simple rules with layered decision-making. Every level is essentially a small system: tubes act like containers, colors act like stacked states, and your job is to find a sequence that reaches a stable end condition.

• Logical sorting: Each tube becomes a “home” for one color, but you must decide which color goes where.
• Limited capacity: Space is the main constraint; using an empty tube at the right time can save the whole run.
• Undo and hints: If you misread the stack order or lock a color, you can undo a move or use a hint to regain direction.
• Progressive difficulty: Early levels teach the mechanics, while later stages require tighter sequencing and smarter use of free tubes.

Tips to solve levels faster

• Reserve one “buffer” tube: Try to keep at least one tube as empty or partially empty space for temporary moves.
• Choose a target color early: Picking one color to complete first reduces chaos and opens room for other pours.
• Avoid breaking completed tubes: Once a tube is correctly filled with one color, treat it as locked unless you have no alternatives.
• Watch the hidden order: A tube may look close to solved, but a different color underneath can force extra steps later.
• Undo immediately after a bad pour: The longer you continue after a mistake, the harder it becomes to recover.
