Chroma

What is Chroma?

Chroma is a recipe puzzle disguised as a color swatch. The game gives you a target shade, a palette, and six attempts to build a mixture that lands close enough to the target. There is no single secret recipe. Different combinations can produce a winning shade, so every attempt is an experiment: choose three colors, balance their percentages, and learn from the similarity score.

Chroma Game Rules

1. Choose three shades from the available palette.
2. Adjust their proportions so the full mix adds up to 100 percent.
3. Submit up to six mixtures for the daily target.
4. Each result reports how close the mixed shade is to the target.
5. A match of at least 95 percent counts as a solve; order does not matter.

How To Play Chroma?

1. Inspect the target: decide which two color families appear strongest and what undertone may be hiding underneath.
2. Build a baseline: choose three plausible palette colors and start with a balanced mix.
3. Read the percentage: a low score calls for new ingredients; a high score usually calls for smaller proportion changes.
4. Refine, do not restart: move five or ten percentage points at a time when the mixture is already close.
5. Cross the line: reach 95 percent or better before the sixth attempt.

Chroma Strategy & Tips

Use the first guess to test a broad theory, then change one variable at a time. If you replace a shade and alter every percentage simultaneously, the feedback cannot tell you which change helped. Near the finish, make small adjustments and watch the mixed preview rather than chasing a perfect-looking numerical recipe.
