Separate glowing chemicals in glass test tubes and seal each tube in one colour. Try time attack and hard mode!
About the game
Water Sort takes the well-known colour pouring puzzle into a dark science lab. Glass test tubes sit in a steel rack, filled with mixed layers of glowing liquids like toxic green, plasma blue, reactor orange and crimson. Tap a tube, then tap another, and the top liquid pours across in a glowing stream, as long as the target tube has room and its top colour matches. When a tube holds four layers of one colour it gets sealed with a metal cap in a burst of sparks and steam, and sealing tubes on consecutive pours builds a chain reaction multiplier. In Classic, levels come in sets of five, the colour count keeps climbing and your progress is saved. In Time Attack you start with ninety seconds and every solved puzzle adds fifteen more. Hard mode hides the lower layers of every tube, removes undo and gives you a strict move limit. Best results for each mode are ranked in the menu next to clearly labelled BOT rivals. It is a logic game about planning ahead and deciding fast. Play free in your browser with no download.
How to play
- Pick Classic, Time Attack or Hard in the menu.
- Tap a tube, then tap the tube you want to pour into.
- Liquid only pours into an empty tube or onto the same colour.
- Four layers of one colour seal the tube; consecutive seals build a chain multiplier.
- Seal every tube to clear the level; running out of time or moves ends the run.

FAQ
Can every level be solved?
Yes, puzzles are generated by scrambling a solved state backwards, so every level has a guaranteed solution.
What is the difference between the modes?
Classic goes level by level with saved progress, Time Attack races the clock, and Hard adds hidden layers and a move limit with no undo.
What if I get stuck?
In Classic and Time Attack you can use Undo to step back or Restart to replay the level from the start.
