Color Flood
Color Flood is a flood-fill strategy puzzle played on a grid of coloured cells. Your territory starts as the single top-left cell; each turn you pick a colour from the palette and your whole region is repainted, absorbing every adjacent cell already wearing that colour. The goal is to unify the entire board into one colour before a strict move budget runs out.
How to play
- Pick a board size — 10×10, 14×14, or 18×18 — to set the difficulty.
- Each turn, tap a colour from the palette to repaint your top-left territory.
- Your region absorbs every adjacent cell of that colour, and their same-colour neighbours in turn.
- Keep choosing colours to grow your territory across the board.
- Unify every cell into a single colour before the move budget is spent to win.
- Run out of moves before the board is unified and the round is lost.
Tips
- Do not always grab the most cells — sometimes a smaller capture opens up a much bigger one next turn.
- Watch the colours along the edge of your territory; the one bordering you most is usually the strong pick.
- Think two moves ahead — the move budget is tight enough that one wasted turn can cost the board.
