About Color Flow
Color Flow is a colour-cycling puzzle. Every tap advances the tapped tile and its four neighbours to the next of three colours. Plan your taps so the entire board ends up one single colour. Boards grow from 3x3 to 4x4 and start more scrambled as levels advance.
How to play
- Tap a tile to cycle its colour and the colours of the tiles around it.
- Colours cycle in a fixed order, so three taps return a tile to where it started.
- Make every tile the same colour.
Tips and strategy
- Work on one corner at a time and move outward.
- Remember that three taps on the same tile cancel out.
- Try to match the par tap count for three stars.
Levels, stars and XP
Finish a level to earn one to three stars and XP towards your player level. Replay any unlocked level to improve your stars. From level 151 the game enters endless mode, where each level is a remix of an earlier one with fresh colours and a slightly higher difficulty.
