ZZT-OOP has seven named colors: blue, green, cyan, red, purple, yellow and white. These correspond to the seven bright colors in the default 16-color CGA palette.

A handful of additional colors can be obtained through ZZT-OOP by using the change and put commands on built-in entities with hard-coded colors.
