# Name the Hue

> Pick the swatch that matches a colour name.

Daily Art & Color game · [Play Name the Hue](https://namethehue.com/) · <https://dledex.com/games/name-the-hue>

A colour puzzle: a name such as Sage Green or Cerulean appears above a grid of swatches, and each pick is scored by perceptual closeness using the CIEDE2000 formula. Guesses are unlimited, with par as the target, and swatches can be ruled out. A paid tier adds a colour-mixer hard mode, extra practice and an archive.
