About

Two Coats

Read full description

Roll a painted cube across small puzzle boards, mix red, yellow and blue to create new colors, and give every target tile the right color. Match them all and find your way to the exit. Every coat changes the board. A helpful splash of yellow can turn red into orange, but one extra color can spoil your carefully painted path. Plan your rolls, experiment with different routes, and undo freely as you work out the solution. Across 57 handcrafted puzzles, you’ll discover color-controlled bridges and long blocks that paint two tiles at once. Each new mechanic brings a fresh way to think about your next move. - Color mixing that turns simple moves into thoughtful challenges. - Cubes and long blocks with different footprints and rolling patterns. - Paint bridges that open when their matching targets are complete. - Unlimited undo and restart so you can explore ideas at your own pace. - Three-star challenges and saved best scores to keep you coming back. - Color-blind mode with symbols to help distinguish colors. - Made for iPhone and iPad, with progress saved on your device. Two Coats is free to play and includes ads. An optional one-time "Remove Ads" purchase removes all ads and lets you skip puzzles without watching a rewarded ad.
