About Water Sort

Glass tubes are full of layered coloured water, and your job is to sort it so every tube holds one colour. Tap a tube, tap another, and the top colour pours across if it matches or the tube is empty. The first levels teach the idea in three or four pours. Later ones, with a dozen colours and a single empty tube, will make you stop and think. Every colour carries its own symbol, so nobody has to guess between similar shades. Stuck? Undo as many times as you like, ask for a hint, or add a spare tube once per level.
