About Color Flood (Ponder Club)
Color Flood is a flood-fill puzzle from Ponder Club, a site of free daily games made by Calli and Eden at Flying Comet Games. The board is a grid of coloured tiles. Your flood starts at the top-left tile: tap a colour and your whole region changes to it, swallowing any neighbouring tiles of that colour, so the region grows with each move.
The goal is to turn the whole board one colour, and the fewer moves you use the better your score. Each day's board is a 10 by 10 grid in five colours. A move counter sits above the board with an Undo button, a How to guide and an accessibility toggle. It takes about a minute, which makes it the shortest of the site's games.
Each day has one board, the same for all players, and the site keeps leaderboards, comments and an archive of past boards. No account is needed; Ponder Club is free with ads, and a one-time purchase removes them. It suits players who like a short spatial puzzle with a bit of planning rather than a word game.

- Tap a colour: your region changes to it and absorbs every touching tile of that colour.
- Keep choosing colours to grow the region across the board.

Tips
- Pick the colour that absorbs the most tiles along the edge of your region, not just the nearest one.
- Head for the centre of the board early; growing a long thin strip leaves big pockets behind.
- Look a move ahead: a colour that opens a large patch next turn can be worth more than a small gain now.
- Leave isolated single tiles for the end, when they get swept up along the way.
