What Makes Watercolors Stand Out
Watercolors: the mind-painting puzzle game.
Mix red, yellow and blue to paint your way through hundreds of challenging levels. Fill the glowing circles with the indicated color to complete each puzzle. Just wait and see what happens when you combine all three colors, it might BLOW your mind!
Keep your mind sharp and have fun playing with colors. Experience the almost magical feeling of dragging and combining colors!
Levels start simple and they progress until your mind is really put to test. And you'll have to discover interesting strategies for completing each puzzle.
"A logic puzzle for artists"
~ Hayley Tsukayama, Washington Post
"A breath of fresh air: a colour-based game that involves playing with blue, yellow and red paints on-screen, combining them where necessary"
~ Stuart Dredge, The Guardian
"Watercolors combines your love of color and puzzle games into a challenging and addictive treat"

GAME MODES
• MOVES: complete each puzzle in as less swipes as possible to get 3 stars for each level

Community Insight:
Update: as of Dec 2018 we still cannot restore our purchases from 2014 and the free hints still dont work. We love this game but now the free hints make you post to Facebook but once you post, you still have zero hints! So free hints don't work. Also when we try to restore our purchases, it just shows an ad about a "Journey With Water Colors" so we can't restore our purchases either. It's getting annoying.
We finished all levels but the next level still locked.
Half of the entire game you have to pay for. It makes no sense! Why not just bump up hint costs instead of saying its a free game and having to pay to even play it! You should just make the freaking game free for anyone to play. What if there is a kid who's parents are low on money and want to play this masterpiece of a game.
LOVE this game! We've played through all of the packs except the xmas one. Nicely designed and well planned. The levels and packs gradually work you through learning how to complete more complex mazes. Definitely recommend using a stylus.
Just getting into it but so far it's been fun trying to figure out the colors! We've only needed one hint so far.
Interesting and entertaining way to pass time.
This is a great brain exercise. Comparable to Blendoku, but in our opinion better.
The game is fun but we think they should add some stuff like more colors and more hints they should make a watercolors 2 or update.
This game is great when you just need you mind freed for a moment or even a memory refreshing.
Love it! It's a great time killer.
Pretty fun to play when you're bored.
This game crashes everytime we pull down the notification bar from the top. Very frustrating. IOS 9.0.1. Though the game is excellent and catches imagination.
It's good to get ya thinking in how bad you remember the color-wheel ! Lol.
This game is pretty cool but only after a few levels.
Gets quite compelling as the patterns develop.
Get bel ciudad reboots we don't know if it's not even funny how people are just a few weeks of school tomorrow and we're still not sure what the actual number one in a while ago but the fact we can get it right away with a new song and it is not an easy way to get the idea is that the government of a sudden it is not the best same way we do not want you in every op boxes and a phalf and in our the first one to be able the same as we can time we.
Playing this game is like going to kindergarten and graduate school at the same time. Yes, it's like painting because you have to know which primary colors combine to form another color. But as the game progresses, you find it increasingly harder to do so. It's great fun, but you have to use your brain too.
We like this game, but the "share on FB to get free hints" doesn't work/is frustrating. We'd rather watch a useless ad than bother friends with the spam on our timeline.
This is not a challenging game at all. We think it needs better levels.
1) we love this app. Very easy though but calming. 2) the hint button and color button (to show what colors make what) don't work. We reinstalled the app and it doesn't work. Just won't show up. 3) we HAVE HAD TO RESTART ALL MY LEVELS TWICE NOW BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SAVE MT PROGRESS ON FACE BOOK OR OTHERWISE. We AM INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATED THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED SO MANY TIMES WHEN we JUST BEGAN THE NEXT GROUP OF LEVELS. If this happens again we really won't be playing again this is incredibly frustrating. The hints not working is fine but just the fact we have to keep restarting is incredibly frustrating and aggravating. We don't want to play the same easy levels over and over again.
This is a challenging and fun game.
Stimulating and visually pleasing game. We don't like timed games and this is relaxing, challenging, and fun. Even our kids like to continue where we leave off.
This game is amazingly wonderful . We recommend it for anyone who enjoys puzzle kind of games.
Keeps our brain thinking. Great game to play at any time with a few minutes to spare or a whole afternoon.
Great game with bugs Really fun but whenever we try to play it the app closes a couple seconds later! And we REALLY REALLY REALLY like this game FIX IT PLZ.
Creative, addictive, smart, challenging and fun! Beautiful interface, elegant design. Great job.
"Watercolors" is such a creative game, and we can tell a lot of time was put into developing it. Between figuring out how to mix the colors, to the well- thought pictures your tracing, this game is (overall) amazing. We just think it's so creative and screaming color. Maybe the developers were artists, or perhaps artist admirer. But either way this game is great. We were bored and was looking for apps, then we found Watercolors and tried it out. It was like nothing we'd ever seen before, and we admired it. Great job, developers, 5 stars for you.
We used to love this game but we updated and lost all of our progress! Please fix.
We've finished all levels.. Then saw this new stages so we instently updated since we love this game quite a lot! But then found out we have to start all over from stage1 and cant play the latest update either… Beyond sad.
We Love this game but it no longer works…it crashes everytime we try and open it. We have tried everything to get it to to open and it just does not open. So VERY VERY DISSAPOINTING.
After doing an in-app purchase we can no longer play the app. It crashes immediately upon starting. Can we get our $$ back.
The game crash down and it won't star, it keep crashing.
Not only did updating cause us to lose ALL of our game progress, but on top of that, we now have to sit through an ad every few minutes. Probably just going to delete the app at this point. It's not worth dealing with ads just to try to and get back to where we were before we updated. :-(.
Good little app. Just got to level 17 sooooo.
This game is Great and so interesting. Great Brain Exercise.
It's just the right length for our commute.
The update erased all our data and we're unable to play the new pack. Now we have to beat all the packs again. Not a happy customer.
Such a fun game and a great way to learn the color wheel too.
Our son worked all summer to clear all the levels. Suddenly the app erased all the work. No option to go back. Very disappointed.
It's addicting fun and amazing.
Love this game! Makes us feel like a kid again. One of our top three favorites! Fun for anyone and everyone. Go at your own pace. Love it.
Fun game!! Super addicting just can't get level 33 IMPOSSIBLE.
The gameplay is smooth, no errors that we have seen thus far, and it is really fun. A challenging game.
We love the overall concept! It's really a great, challenging game! If after u got an achievement u could see the stars then, we would love this game even more, but we're not going to take away one star (like some people do) because of one small complaint! You need to get this game.
Ok, let us get this straight. The only reason this app has four and a half stars instead of five, is the people stuck on a level. Come on! It's not the game maker's fault you can't beat the level! Other people obviously can! We got stuck on a couple levels and we found out that if you really put your mind to it, they are pretty easy. So stop complaining! There are no bugs or glitches, it's a great an original concept for a game… So we're sorry if you cannot figure out how to beat a level. But the truth is, this game has no problems! Quit complaining and make that four a five.
Just downloaded and to level 50 so far. Very addicting!!! Fun.
Stop calling female level 16, it's level 17, And it is possible. Also great game.
This game has a nice progression of skills and can get quite challenging. Game sounds and music not annoying and even offers a "color-blind" version (using symbols). No ad pop-ups or back flips to other screens. Only, and we mean only, complaint; when we finish a level and earn our stars, the board is covered with the score. This means we cannot see our solution (especially annoying if we only earned 1-2 stars and want to try for the three!). Thanks – and enjoy.
This game is fun and addicting! Our only problem is with the three color level five. It's called"feminine energy" and an inappropriate shape for the level. Otherwise great game.
This is probaly thw hardestost changellig game ive played in a long tome.
