Map

from Simon Tatham's Portable Puzzle Collection


Sorry, this Javascript puzzle doesn't seem to work in your web browser. Perhaps you have Javascript disabled, or perhaps your browser doesn't provide a feature that the puzzle code requires (such as typed arrays).

Colour the map with four colours, so that no two adjacent regions have the same colour. (Regions touching at only one corner do not count as adjacent.) There is a unique colouring consistent with the coloured regions you are already given.

Drag from a coloured region to a blank one to colour the latter the same colour as the former. Drag from outside the grid into a region to erase its colour. (You cannot change the colours of the regions you are given at the start of the game.)

Right-drag from a coloured region to a blank one to add dots marking the latter region as possibly the same colour as the former, or to remove those dots again.
