Sort balls into tubes with HINTS. It is a smooth, fast, relaxing, and free ball puzzle game. Here are the most important features of the Ball Sort Master with Hints: *** HINTS *** Do you have doubts about what move you should make? Use hints! This is the most unique feature of Ball Sort Master, which you don’t find in most logical sorting games. Or… If you are brave enough to do it without hints, you can sort the color balls on your own. Try to solve all the logical puzzles and grab the prizes. *** UNDO *** We sometimes make mistakes, don’t we? Now, you don’t have to worry about that! Undo your move! *** SAFE STATE *** If there are no more moves, you will be directed to the place in the board where sorting balls is still possible. *** STEPS *** The fewer steps you make, the higher score you get! *** EXTRA TUBE *** This is the super-helpful feature for sorting! Use an extra tube and make ball sort levels easier. *** SAVING *** Your puzzle game is saved automatically. There is no need to be afraid of losing your progress. Close the game any moment, and next time you can start it from the same balls sorting position. *** CUSTOMIZATION *** Click the shopping cart and tailor your profile to suit you. You can customize anything you want. Choose between the great variety of theme colors, shapes of tubes, or the color of your sorting balls. Don’t forget to pick your own favorite avatar! *** STATISTICS *** Tap your avatar and get transferred to the statistics. There’s a place where you can check your data, e.g., your rank, the stars you have earned, the number of hints you have used, and much more. *** HOW TO PLAY *** - Tap a tube to select a ball. - Tap another tube to move the selected ball... ...and that’s all! Isn’t it easy? *** RULES *** You can only place balls of the same color on top of each other. Try to find empty tubes first, and then move balls there. The best solution to solve the puzzle doesn't exist. Every single way that leads to a win is perfect, so you can apply your own style of sorting balls. Wanna go back to previous levels and fix your steps record? Just select the levels icon! Another option is to restart any of the sorting balls levels. Few more things about Ball Sort Master with Hints: - No time limit or lives limit. - Lots of levels to solve, and each one is diverse. - The Internet or WiFi is not required to sort balls! - Free and easy to play. - This game will become your guilty pleasure! Any questions or suggestions? Write to us! Enjoy, and... May the balls be with you!
