How to play Water Sort, the daily color sorting puzzle
Water Sort is a calm color sorting puzzle. Each glass tube holds up to four layers of colored liquid. Pour from one tube to another until every tube holds a single color, or is empty.
You can pour onto the same color or into an empty tube, and a run of matching layers pours together as far as there is room. There is no move limit and no way to lose: undo and restart are always free.
A new board goes live at midnight in your time zone, easy at the start of the week and hardest on Sunday.
Strategy tips
- Use the empty tubes as parking. Every board has two spare tubes. Fill one with a color you want out of the way, but keep the other free for as long as you can.
- Uncover before you pour. Look for the color buried under one layer. Moving that top layer often frees a whole tube.
- Finish one color at a time. A tube that holds a single color is safe. Building on it never blocks you.
- Ask for a hint when stuck. Hint shows a tube to pour from and a tube to pour into. If the board can no longer be solved from where you are, it tells you to undo.
