Flow Mania: join every color pair and leave no empty cell

Flow Mania is a portrait dot-linking puzzle in which you draw pipes between pairs of same-colored dots until every cell on the grid is covered. CrazyGames lists GamePix as its developer, and it has been on GamePix since April 2018. Two rules decide every level: pipes may not cross or overlap, and the level only ends when the coverage meter reads 100%. The 150 levels are sorted into six boards — 5×5, 6×6, 7×7, 8×8, 9×9 and 10×10 — with 25 levels on each. What Games Play also hosts Color Flow, our own 40-level take on the same rules; Flow Mania is the larger set and adds a move counter that records your best result for every level.

How to play Flow Mania

Pick a language, then a board size, then a level. Each level is a grid with several pairs of colored dots, and you finish it by linking every pair and filling the rest of the grid with pipe.

1
Choose a board
Press PLAY and pick one of six sizes, from 5×5 up to 10×10. Each size lists 25 levels and a counter of how many of them you have finished.
2
Drag a pipe between two dots
Hold the left mouse button (or your finger) on a dot and drag to the dot of the same color. The pipe follows your path cell by cell.
3
Keep the lines apart
Pipes cannot cross or share a cell. When two colors want the same corridor, one of them has to take a longer way round.
4
Reach 100% coverage
The COVERAGE meter at the top shows how much of the grid is filled. The level ends when every pair is linked and the meter reads 100%.

Flow Mania at a glance

Six board sizes, 25 levels each

Boards grow from 5×5 to 10×10. Bigger grids hold more color pairs and longer routes, so the size menu doubles as a difficulty ladder.

A move counter with a saved best

MOVES counts each pipe you drag. Solving level 1, which has five colors, in five moves shows PERFECT! and stores 5 as your BEST.

Coverage shown as a percentage

The COVERAGE readout updates after every pipe. On a 5×5 board a four-cell pipe adds 16%, so you can see how many cells are still empty.

No padlocks on the level list

All 25 levels on the 5×5 page are open from the start, so you can jump to a later puzzle whenever you like.

Tips for Flow Mania

Start with pairs on an edge. Two dots on the same border row often have only one sensible route, along that border.
Draw each color in one drag. Every drag adds one to MOVES, and level 1 showed PERFECT! only when the move count matched the number of colors.
Watch the coverage number. If every pair is linked but coverage is under 100%, one pipe has to be rerouted through the empty cells.
Link the short pairs first. GamePix's own hint for Flow Mania is to begin with the shorter paths, which frees space for the long ones.
Learn the patterns on 5×5. The smallest board is open from the start and shows the corner and edge routes that come back on 10×10.

Who is Flow Mania for?

Flow Free and Numberlink players

Anyone who already knows the connect-the-pairs rules and wants 150 more boards to work through.

Players who like measurable progress

Each size shows finished levels out of 25, and every level keeps a best move count.

Phone players

The upright 600 × 800 layout and drag input work in a phone browser held vertically.

Moves, coverage and PERFECT results

Flow Mania does not award points. Each level tracks two numbers instead: COVERAGE, the share of grid cells filled with pipe, and MOVES, the number of drags you made. A level counts as solved at 100% coverage with every pair linked. The result screen then states how many moves you used and your BEST for that level; on level 1, with five colors, a five-move solve was labeled PERFECT!. The board-size menu shows your finished count for each size, reading 0 | 25 before you start.

Frequently asked questions

What is Flow Mania?+

Flow Mania is a portrait puzzle game in which you link pairs of same-colored dots with pipes and fill every cell of the grid. It has 150 levels spread across six board sizes, from 5×5 to 10×10.

How do you draw a pipe in Flow Mania?+

Hold the left mouse button on a dot and drag to the dot of the same color; on a touchscreen, drag with your finger. The pipe follows your path cell by cell and cannot cross another pipe.

Do you have to fill the whole board in Flow Mania?+

Yes. Linking every pair is not enough: the COVERAGE meter has to reach 100%, so every empty cell must end up inside a pipe.

What does PERFECT mean in Flow Mania?+

PERFECT! appeared when level 1, which has five color pairs, was solved in five moves — one drag per color. The result screen also saves that move count as your BEST.

How is Flow Mania different from Color Flow on this site?+

Both use the same connect-and-fill rules. Color Flow is our own 40-level version, while Flow Mania has 150 levels in six grid sizes and records a move count for each one.

Can you play Flow Mania on a phone?+

Yes. The game is built in portrait at 600 × 800, and CrazyGames lists it as working in iOS and Android browsers. Drag with a finger to draw pipes.
