### 2/5 — Why is it asking to save so often?!

*2026-09-08, version 5.28.1*

Every time I click a bottle the save screen pops up. I can’t play the game. I DO NOT want to save for every play. Got to be an option to turn it off.

### 3/5 — Annoying pop up

*2026-09-07, version 5.28.1*

The game overall is fun, but there is a pop up that comes nonstop.

### 3/5 — Streak Needs Fixing

*2026-09-07, version 5.28.1*

Would be 5/5 if the streak started at level 1.  The fact that you don’t even start tracking the streak until level 6/7 is infuriating. I even restarted progress thinking it was because I accidentally clicked the restart level button the first time I played but you don’t start counting it until level 6 even if I haven’t used it at all. I want my streak to match my level number if I’ve had never used the restart level button.

### 2/5 — Too many flaws and expensive

*2026-09-07, version 5.28.1*

I am getting so annoyed with this game, even though it's fun to play. It is way too easy to accidentally touch the extra flask, and you're out 100 coins. There should be a confirmation button if you really want to spend it. I just looked over at my cat, accidentally touched the screen, and boom... 100 coins gone. It wouldn't be such a problem if it wasn't so hard to collect coins. The rewards and what it cost to buy one silly level of flask are way out of wack. 
I am actually surprised Apple approved this for Arcade. The economics don't make sense at all, even though they say they changed it. The change was laughable.

### 2/5 — Economy of the game is broken

*2026-09-07, version 5.28.1*

I would rate this higher if a lot of the issues with earning coins and spending them are fixed as I enjoy it as an ad free game. However, costs for the additional bottle do not persist between restarts and they cost 100 coins so there’s no incentive to keep playing when you only earn 30-50 coins each level. If you’re stuck, then you can’t earn money other than waiting or the cat timed event and  you can only use it once which is frustrating because the balance between earning and spending currency is broken. Now i understand why people were willing to pay or watch ads to skip or earn coins however the translation to apple arcade’s ad free games does not work unless they balance the coin economy

### 3/5 — Maybe a bug

*2026-09-07, version 5.28.1*

After every move I make it ask me to save remote or local I'm not sure what's going on

### 3/5 — Update Fixed A Lot

*2026-09-06, version 5.28.1*

An update fixed the crashing, and a lot of the other issues. Only real complaint I have is that some puzzles aren’t difficult they’re just trial and error. Having to pick blindly isn’t a difficult puzzle. It’s cheap, lame, and feels like a hangover from a game with in app purchases. A mechanic put in to force you to spend limited currency to keep your streak up. Since there are no IAPs it’s nothing more than annoying, but if you like puzzles don’t get your hopes up too high. The ‘difficulty’ in this game is just “pick the right tubes the first time around or restart”.

### 4/5 — Fun but everything “costs” so much

*2026-09-06, version 5.28.1*

I’ve been waiting for a water sorting game to come to AA and glad it’s finally here! 

Note to the Devs - we aren’t going to buy more coins for you to profit on so maybe lower the in-game cost of things (restarts, beakers, colors, etc) so that it’s more enjoyable? I’m at Level 130 and all I do is restart or go back. I never have enough coins to buy new colors or change beaker styles. Cmon man.

### 4/5 — Good; but hard levels can leave you stranded for hours

*2026-09-06, version 5.28.1*

So if you get stuck on a level you can’t solve, and you have none of the game funny money, you are just stuck.  Sometimes for hours while you wait.  I get why it works like this - its a holdover from the paid version of this game and you have to wait for more free tokens so that you can unlock hints or another space to put colors in.  But… doesn’t apple reward your app in Arcade based on the amount of time people spend playing it?  I don’t know the solution here, but actively chasing people away from it seems counterproductive.

### 4/5 — Great time passer but be careful with accidental buys

*2026-09-06, version 5.28.1*

This game is a fantastic way to pass the time and keep your mind a bit busy. My only complaint is how easy it is to accidentally by the extra bottle; unless restart, which provides a fail-safe confirmation, the extra bottle simply activates. One doesn’t even need to press the bright yellow button, just tap any part of the glass. It almost feels deliberate but an update will clear this up.

### 2/5 — Fun and can be relaxing if….

*2026-09-05, version 5.28.1*

The “sync your process” thing keeps popping up every 2 seconds and it’s annoying. It should ask you one time or have the option for you to sync on your own. Please fix this! I’m about to delete the game because it doesn’t make the game relaxing.

### 4/5 — …

*2026-09-05, version 5.28.1*

Awesome!

### 3/5 — Fun but clearly not mean to be continuous

*2026-09-05, version 5.28.1*

I have completed 195 levels and am currently on a 170 level completion streak. And I have come to the understanding the developers expect players to have a cooldown period. Some levels are impossible to complete without using coins. You will always run out of coins. It’s important to space out playing sessions. After a few hours you have the ability to play level after level until you eventually run out of coins. Let’s be clear. Some levels NEED coins. No amount of strategy will allow you to avoid using coins. And it’s for this reason, I believe the developers expect a cooldown period for the players. Fun, but often frustrating because of that.

### 4/5 — I love this game

*2026-09-05, version 5.28.1*

This game is so fun I’m enjoying it sooo much

### 2/5 — No bugs but extremely hard

*2026-09-05, version 5.28.1*

I see this as a kinda zen mind game and it started like that but now past level 200 I have no gold and am stumped at every level so I can no longer play! The bugs other people are experiencing are their devices not the game!

### 4/5 — Crashes fixed!

*2026-09-05, version 5.28.1*

Much improved, I haven’t had a crash since the update. The pricing is now a lot more fair and balanced which is nice. The levels in the 100’s are incredibly difficult. The daily is fun though.

### 2/5 — Cloud/Local message

*2026-09-05, version 5.28.1*

Today while playing Water Sort Puzzle, it asks me after every move if I would like to pick up from my Cloud progress or from my Local progress. No matter which I choose, I get the same question again after the next move. Great game otherwise, but this is very frustrating.

### 3/5 — Very hard to put down

*2026-09-03, version 5.28.1*

I’m updating my review because I really believe the coin management needs dire fixing for Apple Arcade. I think the “step back” should be free. Keep the extra bottle at 100 coins and the hint at 10 coins. But 30 coins to do ONE step back is very unreasonable when you only get 30 coins for beating a whole level. There’s no penalty to restart the puzzle, so why would anyone do “step back” at 30 coins? But then restarting the puzzle just makes it a memory game rather than a logic game. It’s impossible to accrue a good amount of coins in this game for Apple Arcade, and I think adjustments are necessary.

This game is so fun and addicting. There are a few things about the game that resulted in me giving it 4 stars instead of 5, though. 
First, why are there no notifications? I’d like to get notifications for when the free coins are available.
Second, I think it’s extremely unfair that if you buy the extra bottle and then you restart, you lose the bottle. It’s 100 coins just for one section.
Third, I would LOVE to see more content, more ways to earn coins. Perhaps events, or different playing modes. 
Fourth, PLEASE add a confirmation option for purchasing from the store. I accidentally clicked on one of the color schemes I didn’t want and ended up losing 1000 coins

I’m a sucker for cosmetics and I need more coins lol

### 3/5 — Good game but…

*2026-09-03, version 5.28.1*

I would gladly give this highly repeatable game a Dive. Here is what needs changed:

Add a confirmation button to the screen so we stop spending coin by accident 

Speaking of coin. This is a free arcade game.   Coin and purchasing additional cosmetic items needs separated with another kind of currency 

You have made it impossible to get coinage up to 1000 much less 5000. 

I mean, Come on here.  This game is a simple free Apple Arcade game.  Not a for profit game for this design company. 

Make coinage more accessible

### 1/5 — rigged

*2026-09-07, version 5.28.1*

im dead serious level 101 is unbeatable and i deleted the game because of it i had 4 people i know try it multiple times we easily tried over 100 times what the h*ll

### 1/5 — Hidden vial levels are awful

*2026-09-04, version 5.28.1*

Love a good strategy game. This game hits the mark. EXCEPT THE DARN HIDDEN VIAL LEVELS. Just randomly selecting the next one and hope for the best… that’s not fun. And the hints??? Really not helpful. Been stuck on lvl 101 for about three days. Seems that you have to select the correct 90 colors in the exact order randomly. Sorry. But that’s just not fun.

### 1/5 — Hints are useless

*2026-09-04, version 5.28.1*

I seldom write reviews for games, but decided to for this one. Tired of paying the coins for the hints when they are literally useless. Most of the time, the hint does not win me the level. It is frustrating. I keep thinking, it’s only 10 coins who cares. But it’s the principle. The hint is an absolute joke.

### 1/5 — Sync Cloud

*2026-09-02, version 5.28.1*

Every single move that is made, there is a pop-up that asks if I want to sync local or not. It won’t stop!

### 1/5 — So annoying never hit this game

*2026-09-02, version 5.28.1*

I’m gonna delete this game

### 1/5 — Game is broken now

*2026-09-01, version 5.28.1*

Idk what happened but im asked after every single move if I want to sync to remote save or local unplayable now

### 1/5 — Coins?

*2026-09-01, version 5.28.1*

This is supposed to be a free game. Why do you still need coins. Apple should remove this game from the arcade until the developer removes the need for coins.

### 1/5 — Local or remote

*2026-09-01, version 5.28.1*

it keeps asking if i want to play local or remote. i’m on level 72. it’s going to force me to restart the game and im going to have a complete BF. i have almost enough coins for glitter bottles and they’re robbing me.

### 1/5 — Absolutely cynical and exploitative

*2026-08-31, version 5.28.1*

Whatever standards Apple would aspire to have for Arcade, this game falls beneath them. It's a microtransaction guessing game that pretends to be a puzzle game. 

In many of the "hard" levels, there is no difficulty, only guessing, because information you would need to reason about the "puzzles" (barely puzzles) is actually hidden from you, to feed the currency-purchasing behavior that is no longer possible.

There's this weird "streak" mechanic that exists so that you feel a loss for restarting a level, which breaks your "streak", but restarts are unavoidable on the guess-based levels. That's so your gullible child buys more game currency. It's disgusting.

### 1/5 — No depth

*2026-08-31, version 5.28.1*

No depth to the game, too easy to get stuck and frustrated. Make undos free, then the challenge becomes working out how to solve each puzzle, not constantly restarting the level over and over and over again.

### 5/5 — This game is great

*2026-09-03, version 5.28.1*

I love this game but also I feel like it needs to get more better by just like changing up a little little bit so like changing like the bottle things and go on like the mini games please like 1000 mini games and you’ll see this game and and look at theirs and copy it

### 5/5 — it is so good for people who get stressed or bad inside

*2026-09-03, version 5.28.1*

Best game in the world, but I would like you to include the rainbow you know

### 5/5 — Low Quality for Apple Arcade

*2026-09-02, version 5.28.1*

Update: Out of respect for fixing the constant crashing and revamping the in game currency to be generous I’m upping my rating of the game. It’s not a perfect game but it is fun and that’s what I expect of an ad free arcade game!

Original review: Poorly optimized for my iPhone 17 pro. It crashes constantly and freezes the whole phone. The mechanics are just a pay to play/win game with the micro transactions stripped away. Where ads would have one given me a steady supply of coins now I’m just left broke and waiting for the Daily bonuses to refresh.

### 5/5 — It’s good but…

*2026-09-01, version 5.28.1*

It’s to easy kinda boring and way to many levels 😔
