How it feels

A calm, minimalist puzzle game where you spread colors across tiles with a methodical, meditative feel, rewarding precision over speed.

What players say

Players praise it as a small, clever puzzle game that takes a basic color-spreading rule and makes players think hard. It has around 60 levels and 4 hours of content, with a skip option for when a special tile type frustrates. A minority note achievements are broken and that the game offers nothing new.
