Liquids Sort
What is this game?
Liquids Sort is a devilishly addictive and visually highly comforting logic puzzle game. In this game, you face several glass test tubes filled with layers of differently colored liquids. Your task, like a chemist, is to pour and transfer these liquids between tubes until each tube contains only one pure color. With no ticking countdown rushing you, it's designed for casual players who love organizing, enjoy ASMR-like fluid visual effects, and are passionate about spatial logic reasoning. Solving a complex level can take a few minutes, bringing immense intellectual satisfaction.
How to Play
The game mechanics are easy to understand but challenging to execute. Tap a tube to select its topmost layer of liquid; tap another tube to pour the liquid in. However, two core physical/logical rules must be obeyed: First, you can only pour liquid into an empty tube, or into a tube where the topmost liquid is the exact same color as the one you are pouring. Second, the destination tube must have enough remaining space to hold the poured liquid. Your goal is to use these limited operations to untangle the mess step-by-step, completely separating the mixed colors. If all tubes are jammed with mixed colors and no legal pours are possible, the game hits a dead end.
Beginner Tips
- Creating an empty bottle is the top priority: A completely empty tube is your strongest weapon, capable of holding any color. At the start, prioritize finding a way to empty one tube completely to use as a transit station.
- Merge large color blocks: If you see the same colored liquids at the top of different tubes, prioritize pouring them together. This exposes the new colors trapped beneath them, opening up the board.
- Don't easily fill tubes completely: Unless you can assemble a full tube of four identical colors, don't casually fill a tube to the brim. Leaving a gap means it can still receive other liquids of that color anytime.
- Think thrice before you 'pour': Before pouring, mentally simulate: 'After this pour, where can I put the newly exposed color underneath?' If it has nowhere to go, that move might be wrong.
- Use Undo wisely: One wrong move ruining the whole board is common. If you notice the situation worsened after a pour, use the Undo function immediately; don't try to force an exit down a wrong path.
Advanced Strategy
See through the bottom logic: In advanced levels, your solving thought process shouldn't stay on the surface. Carefully observe the colors trapped at the very bottom of the tubes. All your early planning should serve the goal of 'how to dig out that green liquid at the bottom'.
Multi-stage chain transits: Sometimes you must pour color A into Tube 2 just to free up space in Tube 1 for color B, and then pour color A away later. Don't fear executing complex, two- or even three-step transits.
Identify dead-end loops: If you find all tube tops are single layers of different colors and you have no empty bottles, that's a classic deadlock. Advanced players observe color distribution to foresee and avoid this dead end five steps in advance.
Common Mistakes
Aimless pouring: Finding the fluid animations satisfying and just pouring matching colors together randomly without a follow-up plan. This causes the colors in the tubes to become highly fragmented and unmovable.
Wasting a precious empty bottle: Finally managing to empty a tube, but casually tossing a useless, single-layer junk color into it, completely paralyzing your only 'transit hub'.
Ignoring undo limits: In some hardcore versions, undos are limited. Frantically using trial-and-error and undos without thinking leaves you with zero chances when you actually need to salvage a fatal mistake.
Who is this game for?
Liquids Sort is an excellent remedy for perfectionists and players who love bringing order to chaos. Requiring zero hand speed, it's extremely suitable for adults before bed, during commutes, or when feeling anxious, to relax the brain through quiet logical deduction.

Ball Sort Puzzle
Another iconic version of this genre. The core rules are identical, simply swapping flowing liquids for stacked colored balls, offering a more 3D visual feel.
Tower of Hanoi
A classic mathematical logic game that also requires players to move items using limited transit pegs under specific rules (large cannot rest on small). It's the logical ancestor of these sorting games.
Water Sort Puzzle
Practically the exact same game just from a different developer. There might be subtle differences in UI and the representation of fluid physics.
