Tips and tricks

  • Do not memorise solutions, memorise principles. The level after this one will use the same idea in a new arrangement.
  • If you are stuck for more than a couple of minutes, step away and come back. Puzzle solutions often arrive when you stop forcing them.
  • Play with sound on if the game has it; audio cues often confirm a correct move before the animation finishes.
  • Read the whole board before your first move. In most puzzle games the first move is the most important one, and it deserves ten seconds of looking.
  • Because this is a Coloring game, zoom in for the small areas.
