Welcome to the enchanting world of Drop Sort, where strategy meets the serenity of the deep blue! Dive into a unique puzzle adventure, and help the adorable jellyfish find their way to freedom. Each level presents a vibrant collection of bubbles, each carrying a set of colorful jellyfish. Your task is to drop a new bubble into the mix, aiming to collide with others housing matching hues. When jellyfish of the same color meet, they magically swap to join together. Achieve the perfect match, and watch the bubble burst, releasing your gelatinous friends! But be mindful of your moves; you have a limited number to achieve your goal. With each successful level, the puzzles become more challenging, pushing you to plan with precision. Can you sort to success and collect the required number of jellyfish? Each burst bubble brings a satisfying pop and a step closer to victory in Drop Sort, where your sharp mind will set the jellyfish free!
