Tips and tricks

  • Play with sound on if the game has it; audio cues often confirm a correct move before the animation finishes.
  • Count. Tiles, moves, colours, matches — many puzzles are secretly arithmetic, and a quick count reveals the plan.
  • Do not memorise solutions, memorise principles. The level after this one will use the same idea in a new arrangement.
  • Look for forced moves — places where only one option is legal. Solving those first shrinks the problem.
  • Because this is a Coloring game, zoom in for the small areas.
  • Because this is a Brain game, the obvious answer is often a trap in brain-teasers — pause before you click.
