More about this game
Your goal is to sort glowing liquids so each flask holds exactly four layers of one color. You can pour the top layers of a flask into another, but only if they match the target's top color or the target is empty. The difficulty increases as more colors and flasks are added, reaching up to twelve colors. A level is brewed when every flask is sorted. If you run out of valid pours, you get stuck and must undo or retry.
Tips
- You can only pour a color onto a matching color or into an empty flask, moving up to four layers at once.
- Try to empty a flask completely to use it as a temporary holding space for colors that block your next move.
- You have five undos, three hints, and one extra flask per level. Using the extra flask limits your score to two stars.
Questions
Why can't I pour into a flask?
You can only pour liquid if the top color of the source matches the top color of the target, or if the target flask is completely empty. A flask holds four layers.
How do I get three stars?
You earn three stars by finishing the level in as few pours as the best known solution, called par. Taking more pours drops your rating to two or one stars.
What happens if I get stuck?
If there are no legal pours left, the game will tell you that every flask is blocked. You can either use one of your five undos to go back, or restart the level.
