Colorfle

Colorfle is a daily puzzle where you try to recreate a hidden target shade by mixing three colors together. You have six guesses, and after each one you get green and yellow feedback in the style of Wordle. Instead of guessing letters, you are working out which three colors, and in what percentages, combine to make the target.

What is Colorfle?

The puzzle centers on a single hidden color that the site describes as "composed of three unique colors mixed together." Each guess you submit is a three-color composition, for example 50% blue, 30% red, and 20% yellow, and the game shows how close it lands to the target. The homepage sums the goal up as "Match the Colorfle in six tries." A Statistics panel tracks your wins, hard mode wins, current and max streaks, and average color accuracy, so over time you get a sense of how sharp your color eye actually is.

Feedback works the way most people already know from Wordle, translated into color. The site states it plainly: colors that are correct and in the right spot are highlighted green, colors that are correct but in the wrong spot are highlighted yellow, and colors that are wrong are not highlighted at all. Because you can compare your current guess against your earlier attempts, each round becomes a process of narrowing down which of your three picks were on the right track and where they belong. When you finish, the result is shareable, the same as the word game it borrows from.

What sets Colorfle apart from most Wordle spin-offs is that it is purely visual. There are no words, no letters, and no vocabulary to lean on. You are reasoning about how colors combine, which rewards a different kind of intuition than spelling does. It also offers more than a single daily mode. The site lists Normal and Hard difficulty, a Practice Mode for playing outside the daily, a Paint Edition, and a custom puzzle option that lets you build your own.

The daily puzzle resets at 5 PM in your own local time zone, so the clock you are racing is your own rather than a fixed server hour. The game is free to play in a browser. Public listings place its launch in 2022. The site does not name a creator or host, and the only listed contact is [email protected], so authorship is best treated as unknown.

How to play Colorfle

1. Open Colorfle at colorfle.com in your browser.
2. Study the hidden target shade shown on the board.
3. Assemble a guess of three colors, and their percentages, that you think will blend into that target.
4. Submit the guess and read the feedback: green means the color is right and in the right spot, yellow means the color is right but in the wrong spot, and no highlight means the color is not in the answer.
5. Use the clues from each attempt, comparing against your previous guesses, to refine your next composition.
6. Keep going until you match the target or use all six tries, then share your result.

Tips and strategy

• Treat your first guess as a probe: pick three distinct colors that span the palette so you learn as much as possible before committing.
• Read yellow clues carefully. A yellow tells you a color belongs in the answer but you placed it wrong, so keep that color and move it next round rather than dropping it.
• Lock in every green and leave it alone. Spend your remaining guesses solving the unknown slots only.
• Think about the target as a mix, not a single match. A muted or dark target usually implies at least one deep color pulling the blend down.
• Use Practice Mode to train your eye on how three colors combine before you risk the daily streak.
• Watch your average color accuracy in the Statistics panel to see whether you tend to overshoot toward bright picks or undershoot toward dull ones.
