Do I have to fill every cell?

Yes. The puzzle is not complete until every cell on the grid is part of a path. Empty cells mean you need to reroute your paths to cover them.

Can paths go diagonally?

No. Paths can only move horizontally and vertically along the grid lines.

How big are the grids?

Easy uses a 5x5 grid, Medium uses a 6x6 grid, and Hard uses an 8x8 grid. Larger grids have more dot pairs and require more complex routing.

What happens if I draw a path through another path?

Paths cannot cross or overlap. If you attempt to draw through an existing path, the move will not be allowed. You need to remove the blocking path first.

How to Play Color Connect

Objective

Draw paths to connect every pair of matching colored dots on the grid. Fill every cell on the board with a path segment to complete the puzzle.

Controls

Tap a colored dot and drag to draw a path toward its matching dot. The path follows the grid lines. Tap an existing path to remove it and try a different route.

Step by Step

1Look at the grid and identify pairs of dots that share the same color.
2Tap and drag from one dot to trace a path toward its matching partner.
3Paths cannot cross each other or overlap.
4Continue connecting all pairs until every cell on the grid is covered.
5If you make a mistake, use undo or tap a path to remove it and reroute.

Winning

The puzzle is solved when every pair of dots is connected and every cell on the grid is filled by a path.

Color Connect Rules

Each pair of same-colored dots must be connected by a continuous path.
Paths follow the grid horizontally and vertically — no diagonal movement.
Paths cannot cross or overlap with each other.
Every cell on the grid must be occupied by part of a path.
There is one valid solution for each puzzle.

Tips & Strategies

1.Start with dot pairs that are close together or in corners — these have fewer possible path routes, making them easier to solve first.

2.Dots in corners or along edges must use those border cells, so their paths are more constrained and can be determined early.

3.If two dots are far apart, their path will need to wind through a large portion of the grid. Plan space for it before connecting shorter pairs.

4.Work from the outside in. Fill the edges and corners before tackling the center of the grid.

5.When you get stuck, look for cells that can only be reached by one specific path — they tell you exactly where that path must go.

About Color Connect

Color Connect is a flow-based logic puzzle where you connect matching dots by drawing non-overlapping paths that fill the entire grid. The game offers three difficulty levels — Easy (5x5), Medium (6x6), and Hard (8x8) — with larger grids presenting more complex routing challenges. Features include an undo system for correcting paths, a hint feature to help when stuck, a timer to track your solve speed, and the ability to start a new puzzle at any time.
