- Tap any bottle to pick up the top ball. - Tap another bottle to move the ball into it, but only if it’s the same color and the bottle has space. - Win the level by grouping all balls of the same color into one bottle. - Use Undo to backtrack if you make a wrong move. - Add a Bottle if you need more space to solve the puzzle. - Restart any level at any time to try a new strategy.
Keep at least one tube empty as working space - flexibility prevents getting stuck mid-sort.
Easy to grasp, Medium to Hard for full solving — moving balls between tubes is intuitive; avoiding deadlock configurations while planning multiple moves ahead separates casual players from efficient solvers.
