Mix your way to victory — one color at a time! Mr. Color is a fast-paced color-mixing puzzle game: slide tiles, combine colors, and match the target pattern before time runs out. The vile monster Bertha E has unleashed a deadly virus upon the world, and only one man can stop her. Mr. Color, a brilliant but eccentric scientist, has discovered the secret to brewing a powerful, mystic cure to destroy Bertha and her plague — but he needs YOUR help to mix it! Slide and combine colored tiles on your mixing pad to recreate the exact pattern shown on the game board. Match the pattern to watch it vanish in a satisfying burst of color! When the going gets tough, hold down your Skill Card to unleash game-changing powers and turn the tide. But move carefully — every click and move counts, and your life meter won't last forever. [ How to Mix Colors ] • Red + Green = Yellow • Blue + Yellow = Green • Red + Blue = Magenta • Blue + Green = Cyan [ How to Play ] • Study the Board — Look at the pattern on the game board above; that's the target color combo you need to create. • Mix Your Colors — Slide tiles on your mixing pad below using the color formulas above. • Clear the Board — Form the matching pattern on your pad to clear it from the board in a satisfying burst! • Expect the Unexpected — Watch out for Mystery Tiles (?) — they shake things up every round. • Unleash Skills — Press and hold your Skill Card to open the skill selector, swipe left or right to choose your skill, then swipe up to launch it! • Manage Resources — Keep an eye on your Click count, Move count, and Life meter — waste too many and it's game over. • Beat the Clock — Clear the board before time runs out to advance to the next level and earn Gold.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mr. Color at none against Flow Free's 10. Mr. Color also leads on ads (none vs shown). Flow Free's advantage is update cadence (every 5 months vs every 28 months) and chart position (#48 vs unranked). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
