Chroma Lab – Water Sort Mix

Chroma Lab is a water sort game with one idea the rest of the genre never had: you can mix. Pour glowing liquids between tubes until every colour sits in its own vial — except some of the colours a level asks for are not on the board yet. Tip red onto yellow at a mixer tube and you get orange. Blue over yellow makes green. A plain sorting puzzle quietly turns into a colour mixing puzzle, and every level starts asking you to think two pours ahead.

There are 200 handcrafted levels across five themed chapters — Lab, Alchemy Cellar, Neon Diner, Ocean Glass and Space Station — and each chapter brings a mechanic that changes how you plan. Hidden liquids conceal what sits under the surface. Locked tubes stay shut until you earn them. Frozen vials thaw one pour at a time, and one-way tubes only accept liquid flowing the right direction. Recipe levels drop plain sorting altogether and ask you to engineer an exact set of colours instead.

Every level is machine-verified before it ships, and that cuts both ways: it is always solvable with real planning, and mindless tapping will get you stuck. Difficulty ramps honestly — gentle tutorials first, genuine traps later. Buttery pour animations, satisfying glass dings and a calm lab soundtrack make each solve feel as good as it looks, and colourblind-friendly symbols sit on every colour so the puzzle stays about logic rather than hue.

Five ways to play keep it alive well past the story map: the 200-level campaign with stars, chests and bosses; a Daily Mix recipe puzzle with a streak worth protecting; Zen for endless relaxed sorting with unlimited undo and no clock; Endless Mix for a rising-difficulty score chase; and Weekly Lab, seven themed challenges that refresh every week. Coins you earn along the way go into Color Hint, Pipette and Extra Vial boosters — no pressure, and no paywalls.
