How to play
How to play Hue Lanes
Three new colored pieces drop onto the 9×9 grid every turn. Your job is to keep the board alive.
Pick a piece
Tap any piece, then tap the empty cell you want it to reach.
Check the route
A dotted path previews the exact route before you commit, and cells you can't reach are marked — so you never waste a move.
Line up five
Five or more matching hues in a row, column, or diagonal clear the line, score points, and open up space.
Strategy
Planning beats luck.
Hue Lanes is a color match puzzle built on grid logic. Every move is a small connect-five problem, and you solve it at your own pace.
Wilds and bends change the game
Wild matches any color; bend clears diagonals and new angles.
Never waste a move
Open routes light up and dead ends are flagged — color logic you can see. The next three pieces are always in view, and you can undo and redo your moves.
Daily challenge

I'm a software engineer. I wanted a color puzzle that is simple and good-looking enough for my mom to play without anyone explaining the rules.
Projects like Hue Lanes are where I try out new technologies and design ideas, and I like to take them all the way to a polished product.
If you have an idea, or something bothers you, I'd like to hear about it. I read every review myself.
