How to play the Flood It Color Puzzle

The board starts as a grid of random colored squares. Your blob begins at the top-left square, along with any matching squares touching it.

Tap a color button. Your whole blob turns that color and swallows every touching square of the same color, so it gets bigger. Each color you pick counts as one move.

Keep going until the entire board is one color. Undo takes back a move, and New board deals a fresh grid.

Board sizes and par

Unlike many Flood It games, there is no move limit here and you cannot run out of turns. Par is a target, not a hard cap.

You earn points for every square in your blob, a bonus for filling the board, and an extra bonus for finishing in par or fewer moves. Your blob only ever grows, so your score never goes down.

Flood It tips

• Do not just pick the color that grabs the most squares right now. Pick the one that opens a path toward the far corner.
• Push across the middle of the board early. A blob that reaches the center touches far more squares than one hugging an edge.
• Watch for colors that are almost gone. Clearing the last few squares of a color means you never need to pick it again.
• Near the end, count the colors still left outside your blob. You need at least that many more moves to finish.
• Use Undo to test a move and see how much it really opens up.
