What is Color Sort?

Color Sort is a water-sort puzzle with 360 levels across 12 chapters. Tap one tube and then another to pour a run of the top colour. The destination must be empty or show the same colour on top, and each tube holds at most four segments. A level is complete when every tube left with liquid is full and contains just one colour. Your move count affects its star rating.

Rules for each pour

  1. Select a source tube, then a destination. Only the connected group of the source’s top colour moves; it may fill the destination only up to four segments.
  2. An empty tube accepts any colour. A nonempty tube accepts only the same top colour and must have room. An invalid choice leaves the tubes unchanged.
  3. Continue until every nonempty tube has four segments of a single colour. The level has no countdown, but its own move thresholds determine one, two or three stars.
  4. If your arrangement stops making sense, undo a move, restart, or ask for a hint. The hint searches for a route and may not find one from every position.

Make space before committing

  • Keep an empty tube available as a temporary buffer; it lets you uncover a buried colour without immediately filling another mixed tube.
  • Before pouring, check what colour will be exposed underneath the top run and whether the destination still has space.
  • Settings can add symbols to the colours. Use them if two shades are hard to tell apart. Undo costs no permanent progress.

Color Sort FAQ

How many levels are there?

There are 360 level configurations in 12 chapters.

Can I pour onto a different colour?

No. A nonempty destination must have the same colour on top and enough free space; an empty tube accepts any colour.

Is there a timer?

No gameplay timer. Stars depend on the number of successful pours compared with that level’s thresholds.

What if I get stuck?

Undo or restart. You can request a hint, though its limited search may not find a route from every arrangement.

Is progress saved?

Unlocked levels, stars, settings and best score are stored locally in this browser.
