The Recycling
Read full descriptionHide full description
The Recycling is a casual puzzle game where you sort waste. Sort waste by type: - organic and biodegradable waste (green glow) is cut into small pieces in the shredder saw, - metal waste (cyan glow) is crushed into small pieces in the roller crusher, - plastic waste (red glow) is heated in the oven, turning into pure steam and heat, - hazardous waste (magenta glow) is converted into water and gravity waves in the disintegrator. Move waste back and forth on conveyors. Move waste from one conveyor to another where the conveyors touch each other. Incorrect waste sorting will lead to breakdowns and explosions of recyclers. Broken recyclers can be repaired using points awarded. Just tap on the recycler quickly a few times. Points are awarded for correct waste sorting and destruction of non-hazardous waste. For the destruction of hazardous waste (magenta glow), points are deducted, but this can be stopped if you manage to tap on the red sphere that flies out. You can destroy waste with a few quick taps on it. When the required number of points is reached, a victory is counted. Complete the levels and clear the main screen of waste. You will see that the main screen will be cleaner.
