About Candy by Colors

Candy by Colors is a hypercasual game built around a single idea: sorting sweets by their colour. Confectionery appears on screen in a mix of shades, and the job is to group like with like before the space you have to work with runs out. There is nothing to learn beyond that, which is rather the point. A round begins within a second or two of the page loading and finishes before your attention wanders. The pace tightens gradually, so what starts as a leisurely tidy-up becomes quick colour reading under mild pressure. Scoring is what gives the game its longer life, since a plain number is easy to compare and passing the game between friends to see who ends up ahead is much of the appeal. It is free to play in the browser, with no download and no account.

How to Play Candy by Colors

Use the mouse to click or drag sweets so that matching colours end up together. On a phone or tablet, tap and drag with a finger instead. Grouped colours clear away, which scores points and frees up room for whatever arrives next. Play deliberately rather than at random, because misplaced sweets clog the board and cost you time later. No setup is needed; play starts as soon as the game loads.

Tips and Tricks

Clear the colour you have most of first, since that frees the largest amount of space for the least effort.
Leave one area of the board deliberately empty as a holding spot for odd sweets you cannot place yet.
Look at the next sweets coming in before you commit to a move, so you are not surprised into a bad placement.
When the speed increases, stop trying to sort perfectly and focus on keeping space free; a tidy board matters more than an elegant one.
