About this game

The first 30 levels are handcrafted. Later levels are generated automatically, and every layout is checked by the solver before play, so each puzzle has a solution. The challenge develops as you progress: * wax-sealed jars remain locked until you complete the required number of other jars; * narrow-necked jars release only one layer per move; * jars become taller, holding four, five and then six layers. Fill your cellar shelf with ten kinds of preserves and complete daily tasks to earn hints. There are no timers or limited lives, so you can think for as long as you like. The ambient music is generated during play rather than played from a looping audio file.

How to play

Tap the jar you want to pour from, then tap the receiving jar. You can pour a layer if the receiving jar is empty or its top layer has the same flavour. Consecutive matching layers are poured together. The goal is to collect one flavour in each jar. A full jar containing a single flavour is sealed with a lid and can no longer be used. The bottom buttons let you undo the previous move, request a hint, add one extra empty jar or restart the level. A wax-sealed jar opens after you complete the number of jars shown on its lid. A narrow-necked jar releases only one layer per move. Tap the jar icon in the upper-left corner to open the cellar and view your preserves and daily task. The icons in the upper-right corner control music, sound effects and layer labels.
