Water Sort: treat an empty tube as a decision buffer

Written for AXFLY. These are reasoning exercises based on the game description, not claims of tested level solutions.
Reading the supplied images
Images supplied to AXFLY on October 12, 2026. These picture notes describe visible details; image provenance and correspondence with the live version have not been independently verified. They are not a tested level walkthrough.



Map the exposed colors before pouring
In the image labelled Level 12, the upper row exposes blue, pink, yellow, red, cyan and purple. Two tubes in the lower row are empty. Those empty tubes are useful because they can receive a layer without requiring a matching top color. Before using either one, choose which buried color you want to uncover and where the displaced layer could move afterward.
A destination is more useful than a spare tube alone
The Level 18 image shows yellow being poured onto yellow. The source also contains blue and green underneath. This illustrates two decisions to separate: where the current top layer can go, and whether exposing the next layer creates another useful move. These are different labelled levels, so this picture does not document the result of a move from the Level 12 board.
Near completion, track dependencies
The Level 26 image shows several single-color tubes alongside mixed purple/orange/blue and cyan/pink/orange stacks. Scan each mixed tube from the top down and identify a receiving tube for its exposed color. If the next color is blocked elsewhere, preserve a spare tube rather than filling it merely to make one stack look cleaner. The images do not supply a verified move sequence or prove that a particular pour is legal in the live version.
Use undo to inspect a decision
The supplied interface includes undo, restart and a Hint button displaying a coin amount. Read the live game before spending anything: an icon in an image cannot establish the actual cost or remaining allowance. If undo is available, compare the board before and after a move and ask whether the move exposed a color with somewhere to go.
