Color2 at a glance
Color2 is a browser memory game from the Dialed suite. Each round shows a cartoon character, logo or pop-culture image with one color region changed, and your task is to rebuild it from memory. It is a recall test dressed as a color quiz: the closer your hue, saturation and brightness match the original, the more points you score. Packs cover cartoons, logos and 151 Pokémon, plus a Daily Mix.
How to play Color2
- 1
Pick your pack
To play Color2, open https://dialed.gg/color2 and pick a pack from the home grid. Mix blends cartoons and logos in a single board, Cartoons focuses on animated characters, Logos on brand marks, and Pokémon Gen 1 on the original 151, and every pack keeps its own separate high-score board so you can track progress by theme. New packs are still being added over time, and the developer notes more are on the way, so start with Mix if you want the widest variety of prompts before narrowing down to a set you know well.

Set rounds and difficulty
Choose how many rounds you want to play. The board offers 1, 3, 5 or a custom count, and difficulty scales across Easy, Hard and Brutal. A longer or harder run simply means more wrong colors to reconstruct and a tougher closeness target, not a different ruleset, so you can scale the challenge to match your confidence. If you are practicing a tricky pack, drop to fewer rounds on Brutal; if you want a relaxed warm-up, a single Easy round is enough to stay sharp.

Recolor the wrong region
For each round, study the character, logo or artwork on screen. One region has been recolored incorrectly, and your task is to return that region to its true color using the hue, saturation and brightness sliders. There is no reference image in front of you, so the answer has to come from your memory of the real artwork rather than a side-by-side comparison. Spend a moment on the shapes and the rest of the palette first, because the surrounding colors are your best clue for what the changed region should have been.

Score by closeness
Score is measured by closeness to the original. Each round is worth up to 10 points based on how near your color is to the true value, for a maximum of 50 across five rounds. When the round ends, you can copy a share link, compare yourself on the daily leaderboard, or jump straight into a friend challenge from the same board. The score reflects calibration, not trivia knowledge, so a few careful slider nudges usually beat a fast guess, and reviewing your misses after a run is the fastest way to improve.

Color2 tips and strategy
Start with the Mix pack
Mix blends cartoons and logos in one board, which is the fastest way to learn how Color2 phrases its prompts. Once you know whether a round is testing a face, a mascot or a brand mark, the other single-theme packs feel easier because the candidate set is narrower. Spend your first few solo runs here before moving to Pokémon or Logos, where the artwork is more specific and the wrong color is harder to pin down from memory alone. A warm-up in Mix also shows how the closeness meter reacts before the daily locks.
Use the sliders like a color picker
You never need hex codes or design tools. The three controls map to hue (which color), saturation (how vivid) and brightness (how light or dark), and the game only measures distance from the true color. Nudge one axis at a time so you can tell which dimension is throwing the match off, and avoid dragging all three at once when you are unsure where the mistake sits. Treat the controls like separate dials, since most misses come from moving two at once.
Share the same board with friends
Multiplayer challenges send everyone the same regions and target colors, so a shared link turns into a fair accuracy contest. The closest match wins, and a live round keeps a shared timer so nobody researches the answer mid-game. Trade links with friends who know the same shows or games, since shared cultural memory is the real edge in a head-to-head. Pick opponents who share your fandoms, since prompts reward specific recognition.
Score by closeness, not right or wrong
Color2 does not mark a color correct or incorrect. Every round is worth up to 10 points based on how close your hue, saturation and brightness are to the real value, so a near miss still scores. Spend early rounds learning how far off a single slider move really is rather than hunting for an exact match, because the game rewards gradual refinement far more than a lucky first guess ever will. Watching the number climb as you refine a slider is the clearest feedback.
Treat the daily as one shot
The Daily Mix gives every player the same five regions and allows a single attempt, then posts to a daily leaderboard at midnight UTC. Because there is no retry, save your most confident pack for the daily and use solo runs on the other packs to practice the artwork you find hardest. A calm, prepared attempt beats a rushed guess when the leaderboard is on the line. Pick your daily pack the night before so the one shot really counts.

Color2 vs other daily games
Daily Tens
Ordered lists vs. palettesDaily Tens asks you to name every entry in one ranked top-ten list and counts wrong guesses against a small allowance, so the pressure is on recalling a single ordered set. Color2 spreads the same daily energy across five recolored regions and scores each by closeness rather than right or wrong, rewarding memory of artwork over list recall. If you enjoy the daily cadence but want a visual twist, Color2 is the natural next step after Daily Tens.
Spotle Movies
Attributes vs. colorsSpotle Movies grades a fixed table of attributes for a guessed film, so every move feeds one numerical grid and the deduction is explicitly about distance. Color2 shares that distance scoring but swaps the film table for a cartoon, logo or Pokémon and asks you to recreate one wrong color, which tests visual memory more than categorical reasoning. Both reward calibration, but Color2 leans on recognition of art you already know rather than trivia about a movie.
AniGuessr
Whole scene vs. one regionAniGuessr is a daily anime quiz with five modes that all test recognition of anime media. Color2 is the closer cousin in the Dialed family of memory games: both show you familiar pop-culture art and ask you to reproduce a detail from memory, but Color2 narrows it to a single color region instead of a whole scene. If AniGuessr trains your eye for anime frames, Color2 trains your memory for exactly how a color should look, and both post a fresh puzzle every day so they pair well as a morning routine. AniGuessr also runs one daily set per mode, while Color2 posts its single challenge and keeps the run under a minute.
Color2 FAQ
How do I start a Color2 round in my browser?
Pick a pack from the home grid at dialed.gg/color2 to begin — Mix, Cartoons, Logos or Pokémon Gen 1. Choose 1, 3, 5 or a custom number of rounds and a difficulty, then the first character, logo or artwork appears with one color changed. The game runs in any modern browser with JavaScript enabled and needs no install.
What packs can I play in Color2?
The packs are Mix (cartoons and logos together), Cartoons, Logos, and Pokémon Gen 1, the original 151 Pokémon. Each pack keeps its own high-score board, and the developer notes that more packs are on the way, so the pool of prompts keeps growing.
What do the color sliders actually control?
They map to hue, saturation and brightness — the three axes of a color. You do not need hex codes or design software; the game only measures how close your result is to the real color, so simple slider moves are enough to score well even without technical knowledge.
When does the daily Color2 challenge reset?
The Daily Mix gives every player the same five regions and allows one attempt, then posts to a daily leaderboard. The boundary is calculated at 00:00 UTC, so a fresh daily puzzle arrives at the same moment for all players regardless of local time.
Can I challenge friends in Color2?
Yes. Multiplayer challenges use the same regions and target colors for everyone, so you can share a link and see who recreates the colors most accurately. A live round keeps a shared timer, and the closest match wins, which makes it a fair head-to-head.
Is Color2 free to play, and do I need an account?
Color2 is free to play in the browser with no signup, no download and no mandatory account, so you can start immediately. An optional Dialed+ subscription only adds cross-device stats and streaks; the core game stays fully playable without it.
