Introduction
Happy Beads is a colorful sorting puzzle based on the Day 06 bead prototype. The board is shaped like a bright chick mosaic, but the beads start scattered across the wrong colored sockets.
Your goal is to lift connected groups of misplaced beads, move them through the tray, and place each color back into matching empty sockets before the timer reaches zero.
How to Play
- Tap a bead on the board to select its connected group of same-color beads on the same socket color.
- Use Move to Tray, or tap the tray, to lift the selected group into the 14-slot tray.
- Select a bead color in the tray, then tap an empty socket with the same target color.
- Use Place Beads to automatically place any tray beads that already have matching empty sockets.
- Finish the mosaic by matching every bead to its socket before time runs out.
Controls
- Mouse or touch: select bead groups, tray beads, and empty sockets.
- Move to Tray: move the currently selected board group into the tray.
- Place Beads: place all currently matchable tray beads.
- Restart: start a fresh shuffled board.
- Reward Polish: optionally place a few matchable tray beads when rewarded ads are available.
FAQ
Why can I not move some beads?
Beads that already match their socket color are locked. Only misplaced beads can be selected and moved.
What does the tray do?
The tray is temporary storage. It lets you remove wrong beads from the board so you can open matching spaces for other colors.
How does Place Beads work?
Place Beads scans the tray and fills empty sockets with matching colors when a legal placement is available.
What does Reward Polish do?
Reward Polish is optional. If available, it places up to four matchable tray beads without blocking normal play.
