What is Tide Sort?

Tide Sort is a bottle-sorting puzzle with 100 prepared levels. Select one bottle and then another: its top matching run pours into an empty bottle or onto the same colour, provided there is room. Each bottle holds four layers. A board is solved when every nonempty bottle contains only one colour. The Perfect counter gives a fewest-pours target, while your personal best is saved for replay.

Pour without trapping a colour

  1. Tap or click a source bottle, then a destination. The game transfers as many matching top layers as will fit.
  2. Use an empty bottle as temporary space to reach a colour buried under others. Pouring onto the same colour frees space without mixing new layers.
  3. Finish when all remaining bottles are single-colour. Undo reverses the last pour, Hint suggests a next move, and Restart resets the board.
  4. Levels unlock in order. There is no countdown, so review the arrangement before committing a pour.

Improve your route

  • Do not fill every spare bottle too early; a free bottle may be the only way to expose a buried layer.
  • Compare your count with Perfect after solving, then replay to remove detours.
  • If a position has no useful pour, use Undo to backtrack rather than repeating the same arrangement.

Tide Sort FAQ

How many levels are there?

There are 100 prepared puzzles in six difficulty bands, rising from three to eight colours.

Can I pour onto a different colour?

No. The destination must be empty or have the same top colour, with enough free capacity.

Do I need to fill every bottle?

No. Empty bottles are allowed; each nonempty bottle must contain just one colour.

What does Perfect mean?

It is the fewest-pours target for that level. Your best count is saved separately.

Is there a time limit or fail screen?

No timer or conventional fail screen. Undo and Restart let you reconsider a blocked arrangement.
