There's no fast and easy way out of this puzzle, your objective is to change all the color circles on screen to white. I do best with triangles and rectangles. You'll discover there're some rules to the puzzle like backing up over a just changed color, it'll reset the puzzle from the beginning.

It takes patience and time, sometimes you can blow through it and other times consider seppuku.

Thanks. But, out of ignorance, what do you mean by triangles and rectangles exactly?

Its a simple geometric method to move the cursor over the colored circles.
Random hither and yon moves creates a mess that requires big time do overs and or resets.

Red, Pink, Dark Blue, Light Blue, Green, Yellow and White, white being the final, (desired) color in the change sequence.

The square, rectangle and triangle shapes allows you to confine your moves over small areas to minimize errors and save time, really it does. Admittedly there will be moments albeit rare when you're provided large groups of similar colors that'll allow you to blast through maybe 7 to 9 circles.

And not so good others, being "YAY" the entire screen is white, "BOO" why isn't this over? This is because "CRAP" there's at least 1 circle off screen you haven't altered and you gotta find it.

P.S. to help in the game will supply clues unless you out right ask for answer

I'm going crazy with this. Do you actually have the answers?

If you're still stymied by the puzzle you're not going to like the answer

With this puzzle
1. There is no absolute answer, the screen is filled with randomly placed colors, (think chaos theorem) ALWAYS!
2. There is no specific position on screen to begin and no defined route to follow that will guaranty a quick solve let alone a solve

My MO is to look for a space within the screen/monitor that has the most like colors grouped within the given space that I can move over, ( without being forced to back over a just changed color and don't hold your breath for medium or large groups). I then use the triangle, square and rectangle shapes.

As I clear circles I try to move slow enough to be able to catch other nearby like colors to include them in the group. (no guaranty this will occur). But if the nearby circles are close enough to the groups color pattern I often move to them to bring them up to sequence then incorporate them into the other group.

I most often try to spiral out from said starting point till I get close to the edge of the screen then I may zigzag, (if necessary and possible) to include circles at the edge of the screen so as to minimize retracing.

Then if you're lucky there won't be any circles just off screen

This puzzle is going to take lots of practice to gain the experience one needs to catch all the subtleties of color and possible patterns.

OMG, FINALLY got it and there's a color code displayed. I scrambled to find my phone and get a picture and MISSED IT! Be prepared!

It blows your 1st time through, all wired up, you solve it and then "Oh Crap" how do I take a pic
1. You could take a screenshot, think "F12"
2. Always keep a notepad close by
