## Description

Yellow is a minimalist puzzle game by Bart Bonte that challenges you to turn the entire screen yellow across 50 levels, each with its own clever logic.\n\nHints are available via a light bulb that appears after a moment in the bottom-right of each level. There are multiple hints to help you, and an in-app purchase can remove ads during hints.

## Review summary

Overall, Yellow is praised for clever puzzles, a standout soundtrack, and the inventive Bart Bonte color-series concept. The 50-level progression across colors keeps players engaged. Major drawbacks are intrusive ads—especially for hints—plus buggy hints and some very hard or unfair levels. Some puzzles can be brute-forced, and there are privacy concerns with tracking. Despite these issues, fans continue to enjoy the puzzles and the series’ charm.

### Pros

- Engaging, brain-teasing puzzle design that is challenging yet solvable
- Excellent soundtrack and audio experience
- Creative, beloved Bart Bonte color-series concept with strong replay value across colors
- Hint system that helps without simply giving away answers
- Well-timed, moderate-length set of about 50 levels across colors

### Cons

- Excessive, intrusive ads, including for hints and adjusting settings
- Hint system is buggy and often not helpful, requiring multiple ads
- Some levels are extremely hard or feel unfair/rigged, with tricky timing
- Some puzzles can be brute-forced, reducing perceived puzzle quality
- Privacy/tracking concerns and a desire for a paid, ad-free version
