  • Goal
    • Your goal is to use the limited amount of water you are given on each level to fill the cup to the fill line.
    • This game is fairly generous with allowing you to overfill one side of the cup while underfilling the other side and still count the cup as full.
    • When you fill the cup past the line (on average) then you beat the level.
    • You do not need to worry about overfilling cups, as you are not dinged for that.
    • You can repeatedly turn the water faucet on and off.
  • Obstacles
    • Spikes – any water which touches spikes is wasted. Some spikes are stationary, while others ride on moving platforms or platforms that rotate.
    • Spiked balls – these move across the screen. Any water which touches these is wasted.
    • 4 beam spinning platforms – these spin based on the prior momentum along with how and where you pour water on them.
    • Yellow platforms – spin periodically.
    • Green platforms – you can pour water on these to knock them out of position, or to shift their position from flat to being more like a ramp you can pour water on.
    • Purple platforms – these blink. When they are light colored water can through them & when they are solid water can flow across them but not through them. Within a particular level there can be multiple purple platforms with different timing sequences on each.
  • Levels
    • This game has 40 levels which are unlocked sequentially.
      • You can go back and replay previously beat levels at any time.
    • If you run out of water before the cup is filled you lose the level.
      • This game gives unlimited continues, so don’t be afraid to experiment or be aggressive early in a level.
      • Use the level restart button if you make a major mistake early.
  • Tips & strategies
    • Levels are not timed, so take your time.
    • Some parts of the level which move have different speeds, so it can make sense to wait until parts are well in sync or out of sync (as needed).
      • If you are having trouble tracking multiple separate items then look at which one is more limiting and use that as your primary thing to keep track of.
    • Some levels require you to make many short pours rather than fewer long pours.
• Target Audience
  • The game is suited for players who like water pouring container filling games.
    • If you like this game you’ll also enjoy the sequel Smiling Glass 2.
  • The game has no adult themed content.
