About Liquid Sorting

Liquid Sorting takes the everyday idea of separating things and applies it to liquids that will not blend. Each level starts with flasks filled in coloured layers, and the unusual property of this liquid is that the layers stay distinct — so you can transfer some of the top layer of one flask into another and it sits where you put it. Getting every flask down to a single colour is the goal, and the difficulty comes entirely from flask capacity and pour order. A pour that looks obviously right can leave you with no legal move at all a few steps later, which is what turns a simple mechanic into a puzzle worth thinking about.

How to Play

Use the mouse on desktop or touch the screen on mobile. Select a flask to pour from and another to pour into — only the top layer transfers, and only where it can go. Keep pouring until every flask contains a single colour to complete the level.

Tips & Tricks

Keep at least one flask empty for as long as you can, because a board with no free space frequently has no legal moves left. Pour into a flask that already shows that colour before starting a new one. Look several moves ahead — most failures here happened three pours before you noticed them.
