Colorfle Alternatives: 4 Color Guessing Games to Try

Want a Colorfle alternative? We compare Hexcodle, KolorMatch, Dialed and Color Guesser on how you guess, when they reset, how they score and who you play with.

The closest Colorfle alternatives are Hexcodle if you want Wordle style hints on a hex code, KolorMatch if you want to rebuild a color by eye with sliders, Dialed if you want to play live against other people, and Color Guesser if you want a named color scored by how close you get. None of them copies Colorfle's main idea, working out a color as a mix of three others, so if that is the part you love, Colorfle's own extra modes are the best next step.

We make Color Guesser, so read this with that in mind. Every detail about the other games below comes from their own pages as we found them in October 2026, and each one links to its source. Games change, so check before you rely on a detail.

What Colorfle Does Well

Colorfle gives you six tries to match a target color made of three colors mixed together, for example 50% blue, 30% red and 20% yellow. Wrong colors stay plain, a right color in the wrong spot turns yellow, and a right color in the right spot turns green, so it plays like Wordle with paint. A new puzzle arrives every day at 5 PM your local time. It also has a Normal and Hard setting, a stats screen with wins and streaks, a Practice Mode, a Paint Edition it calls "more life-like," and a page for making your own puzzle (colorfle.com, as of October 2026).

That mixing logic is the thing to keep in mind. In every game below you match a color directly. You do not reason about which ingredients made it.

Hexcodle: The Closest Wordle Feel

How it plays: you see a target color and get five tries to type its six digit hex code. After each guess, every character gets a checkmark for an exact match, a single arrow if the right value is one or two steps away, or a double arrow if it is three or more steps away. The arrows point up or down toward the answer.

Extras: Easy, Hard and Expert settings, an RGB mode that swaps hex pairs for 0 to 255 values, an archive of past puzzles, custom games, a shorter Hexcodle Mini, and a share button. It is made by Hannah and Ekim and takes donations rather than charging (hexcodle.com, as of October 2026).

Where it beats Colorfle for some players: the hints are exact enough that careful reasoning always gets you closer, and the archive means you can catch up on days you missed. If you want a side by side with our game, see Color Guesser vs Hexcodle.

KolorMatch: Rebuild a Color From Memory

How it plays: in the Daily Challenge you get five seconds to look at a color, then it hides and you rebuild it with sliders. Everyone gets the same color, and it resets at midnight your local time. Scoring 80% or better keeps your streak going, and only your first attempt counts.

Extras: Hardcore (one attempt a day), Attack (start with 60 seconds and earn 5 more for each round at 80% or better), Zen (the target stays on screen), and Impossible (type exact RGB numbers instead of using sliders). You can copy a challenge link for a friend, and an optional account saves your stats. It is a hobby project by a solo developer (kolormatch.io, as of October 2026).

Where it beats Colorfle for some players: more ways to play in one place, and a streak rule that rewards accuracy rather than just turning up.

Dialed: Color Plus Other Memory Games

How it plays: the color game flashes a color, then you recreate it from memory on sliders, with scores shown out of 50. Color is one of several memory games on the site, alongside Color-Toon, Sound, Time, Shape, Pattern and Tempo.

Extras: the site describes itself as offering solo play, daily challenges and live multiplayer, and you can post a score and challenge a friend. It shows ads, and a paid Dialed+ plan removes them for $1.99 a month or $9.99 a year (dialed.gg, as of October 2026).

Where it beats Colorfle for some players: live multiplayer, and plenty to play once the color round is done.

Color Guesser: Name a Color, Build It, Get Scored

How it plays: each day there are five color names, the same for everyone, with a new set at 00:00 UTC. For each name you build the color on a hue, saturation and brightness picker, then see your pick next to the real thing. Each round scores 0 to 100 based on ΔE94, a measure of how different two colors look to the eye, so a near miss still earns most of the points. The best possible day is 500.

Extras: private leagues with a shared table for friends or a team, a live head to head battle where you share a code and play the same rounds at the same time, a daily leaderboard, Infinity mode for extra rounds, a memory mode, and Odd Shade, where you spot the one tile that is a different shade. It is free and you do not need an account.

Where it falls short: there is no archive of past days, no hard mode, and no personal streak counter outside of leagues. You also get one pick per round with no hints in between, which some players will miss after Colorfle's green and yellow feedback.

Which One to Play Next

If you like Colorfle's deduction, start with Hexcodle. If you like the moment a mix lands on the right shade, try KolorMatch or Color Guesser, which both test your eye rather than your logic. If you want to play against someone right now, try Dialed or a Color Guesser battle. For a wider list, see our daily color games like Wordle. They each take a few minutes, so there is no reason not to play more than one.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best Colorfle alternative?

It depends on what you like about Colorfle. For Wordle style hints, try Hexcodle. For rebuilding a color by eye, try KolorMatch or Color Guesser. For playing live against other people, try Dialed or the battle mode in Color Guesser.

Is there another game where you mix colors like Colorfle?

Not among the games we checked. Colorfle is the only one that builds its answer from three colors mixed in set proportions. Its own Practice Mode and Paint Edition are the closest thing to more Colorfle. The others ask you to match a color directly with sliders, a picker or a hex code.

When does Colorfle reset?

Colorfle says a new puzzle arrives every day at 5 PM your local time (as of October 2026). Color Guesser changes its daily set at 00:00 UTC, so the two reset at different times for most players.

Can I play a Colorfle alternative with friends?

Yes. Color Guesser has private leagues and live head to head battles. Dialed describes itself as having live multiplayer, KolorMatch lets you send a challenge link, and Hexcodle lets you share your result (all as of October 2026).
