    Didn’t take me too long after writing that to figure out a reasonable guess at blue.

      Solved it pretty sure, but I don’t understand the color blocks for the solutions and how colors mean anything. Sidebar on community doesn’t help, care to explain? Just stumbled across your post.

        So in terms of my comment, there’s no significant meaning to them. When I say “got the green out easy. Narrowed the yellow down to 6”, I didn’t know that they were green and yellow until after I had guessed them correctly and it revealed the answer to me. As you solve each row, it immediately shows you what colour that row was and what the connection is for that row. The colours could be, for the purpose of this discussion, completely random.

        However, the colours aren’t actually completely random. They signal difficulty. Yellow, green, blue, purple, in ascending order of difficulty. It actually is explained in the game itself, if you press the help (“?”) button, but that button is rather small and easy to pass over.
