How to play Sugar Pour
Sugar Pour is a free sugar pouring puzzle. A stream of sugar falls from a spout at the top of the screen, grain after grain, and your job is to fill every cup. You cannot move the sugar directly: instead you draw lines that become ramps, slides and walls. The grains bounce, roll and pile up on your lines just like real sugar, so every level is a little physics experiment.
- Watch where the sugar falls from the spout.
- Draw a line under the stream to catch it and slope it towards a cup.
- Keep drawing while the sugar pours: add more ramps to reach cups further away.
- Coloured cups need coloured sugar: guide the stream through the matching colour filter first.
- When every cup shows a tick, the level is done. Use less ink for more stars.
Tips for sugar puzzles
- Steeper is faster. Sugar slides down steep ramps but piles up on flat ones. A pile that grows too big spills over the high end.
- Start beyond the stream. Begin each ramp a little past where the sugar lands, so the pile cannot spill backwards.
- Split with a roof. A line shaped like an upside-down V under the spout splits the stream in two for two cups.
- Zig-zag down. To reach a far cup, draw a few short ramps that pass the sugar back and forth on its way down.
- Colour first, then aim. Route the stream through a filter, then catch it below and tip it into the matching cup.
- Draw while it pours. There is no time limit, and you can fix a ramp the moment you see sugar going the wrong way.
Twelve sweet levels
The first levels teach the basics: catch the stream, tip it into a cup, split it in two. Then come shelves and walls that block the direct path, and colour filters that turn the sugar red, blue, green or yellow. Later levels combine everything: two spouts feeding one cup through a filter, three cups from two streams, and a sugar factory where you have to split, colour and catch the sugar before it falls off the edge.
The physics of falling sugar
Every grain of sugar is simulated on its own. Each one falls straight down if it can, slides diagonally if something is underneath, and keeps rolling sideways along a surface until it hits an obstacle. Put a few thousand grains together and you get realistic piles, avalanches and streams that pour over edges, the same kind of rules used in falling sand games. It means there is never only one solution: any line that gets the sugar there works.

Sugar Pour FAQ
How do you play Sugar Pour?
Sugar pours from the spout at the top and falls grain by grain. Draw lines with your mouse or finger to make ramps and slides that guide the sugar into the cups. Each cup shows how many more grains it needs; when every cup is full, the level is complete.
What do the coloured areas do?
They are colour filters. Sugar that passes through one changes to that colour. A cup with a coloured dot only counts sugar of the same colour, so you have to route the stream through the right filter first. Plain cups accept any sugar.
Is this game like Sugar, Sugar?
It belongs to the same family of sugar-pouring puzzles where you draw lines to fill cups. Sugar Pour is an independent game with its own 12 levels, colour filters and physics, and it runs free in your browser.
How do I get three stars?
Stars depend on how much ink you use. Fill every cup with short, well-placed ramps for three stars; long or many lines still pass the level with one or two stars. Undo removes your last line and the bin clears all of them.
Why does sugar pile up and spill off my ramp?
Like real sugar, the grains slide down slopes but pile up on flat or very gentle lines, and a big pile spills over the high end of a ramp. Make ramps steeper, start them a little beyond the stream, and the sugar will flow smoothly.
Does it work on phones and is it free?
Yes. Draw with your finger on phones and tablets or with a mouse on a computer. It is free, needs no account, and your stars and unlocked levels are saved in your browser.
