How to play the water sort puzzle
- Press Play Game, then Play Level.
- Tap a tube to pick it up. It lifts up and glows.
- Tap another tube to pour the top color into it.
- When a tube is filled with four layers of one color, it gets a cork and sparkles ✨.
- Sort every color into its own tube to finish the level. Do it without hints or the extra tube for three stars ★★★.
It sounds simple, but every pour changes what you can do next. Thinking a few moves ahead is what makes this liquid sort puzzle so satisfying.
Water sort rules
| Rule | What it means |
|---|---|

Daily puzzle
Every day there is a new 9-color daily water sort puzzle, the same for every player. Solve it to tick off the day and grow your total of solved dailies.
Tips to solve water sort levels faster
- Keep an empty tube free. An empty tube is your most valuable space. Don't fill it with a single layer unless it really helps.
- Finish nearly-done tubes first. A tube with three layers of one color needs only one more pour.
- Dig for buried colors. Look at what is under the top layer before you pour. Moving one layer can free a whole color.
- Pour full stacks. Moving two or three layers at once uses fewer moves and less space.
- Undo is free. ↶ takes back a move and costs no stars, so experiment.
- Still stuck? 💡 shows a pour that leads to a solution, and 🧪 adds one extra empty tube per level.
