Sport Sort Puzzle

Sport Sort Puzzle takes the familiar tube-sorting idea and fills the tubes with sports equipment instead of coloured water. Footballs, basketballs, tennis balls, golf balls, baseballs and volleyballs (plus further types the developer does not name) start out mixed across a row of glass bottles. The level is done when every bottle holds a single kind of ball.

Sorting by ball type rather than by colour is the main difference from most games in this group, since you read each bottle by the pattern and size of what is in it. Stars are awarded as you clear levels, and fresh ball types join the set as you progress. There are three difficulty modes, running from Rookie at the gentle end to Legend at the top. The game remembers where you got to, so closing the tab does not cost you your place.

Tap a bottle to lift balls off its top, then tap a different bottle to drop them in there. Repeat, moving balls from bottle to bottle, until each bottle is filled with one sport's ball and nothing else. That finishes the level and earns its stars. If you lose track of a sensible move, a hint is available, and an undo takes back the last step.

The developer's own advice is to use hints wisely, which suggests treating them as something to save. Try the undo button first when a move goes wrong. Before lifting anything, pick which bottle each ball type should end up in, so every move works towards that plan instead of shuffling balls back and forth.

A ball sort puzzle where balls are grouped by sport, not colour. Landscape frame (1920 by 1080). Tap controls. Three difficulty modes from Rookie to Legend, hints, an undo, stars per level and progress that is saved for you.

Bubble Sorting asks for one colour per tube with a strict rule about what may sit side by side, and Hoop Sort Fever offers an undo, an extra pole and a skip.
