Water Sort

A calm color sorting puzzle

Water Sort is a free browser color sorting puzzle. Tubes hold layered liquids; tap a tube to pick it up, tap another to pour. You can only pour onto an empty tube or onto a matching top color. A tube is done when it is full of one color. The collection ranges from gentle pours to arrangements that reward planning. There is no timer, no streak, and no account. You sort a board, maybe beat your move count, then close the tab.

Rules

• Tap a tube to pick it up, then tap another to pour.
• You can only pour onto an empty tube or onto a matching top color.
• A tube is done when it is full of one color.
• Every tube must end up either empty or full of a single color.

How to play

1. Tap a tube to pick it up — its top color is now active.
2. Tap another tube to pour into it (empty, or same top color only).
3. Pouring moves the top same-color block, capped by the target's free space.
4. Fill a tube with a single color to mark it sorted.
5. Sort every tube to complete the level; use Undo to backtrack.

Tips

• Keep two empty tubes in reserve — they are your room to maneuver.
• Before pouring, check the target's top color matches the source.
• Don't bury a unique color under others — free it early.
• If stuck, Undo a few steps and try a different pour order.
• Every level is solvable — if it feels impossible, restart and plan.
