Can you make the screen purple in 50 levels? Each level has its own logic. It's here, the next part of my colour puzzle series! After 'yellow', 'red', 'black, 'blue', 'green', 'pink' and 'orange' it's time to solve 50 new conundrums! Do you need help? Use the light bulb button in the top right corner of each level to get hints. There are multiple hints for each level. With the in-app purchase you will not get ads before the hints. This is the eighth game in my color puzzle series. There are already 8 color games each with 50 new levels. A Bart Bonte / bontegames puzzle game. Enjoy! @BartBonte

On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
