7 PLANETS is a relaxing yet challenging logic puzzle game with wooden balls, brain-teasing mechanics, and the timeless feel of a classic board game. Roll and match colourful marbles on a beautifully crafted wooden board, solve puzzles at your own pace, and train your brain with simple but deeply rewarding gameplay. A Puzzle with History 7 PLANETS has been on the App Store for over 15 years and is inspired by a beloved tabletop puzzle first introduced in 1985. It preserves the charm of the original game while bringing its clever logic challenges to modern mobile devices. You start with a wooden board containing 28 balls in 7 different colours. Your objective is simple: restore order by placing every ball into its correct row. The challenge is that when you move one ball, the entire row moves with it. Since the balls are shuffled differently every game, every puzzle presents a unique challenge. 5 Game Modes • One Planet – Match balls using only one randomly selected target colour. Fast, accessible, and perfect for short play sessions. • 7 Planets – The classic experience. Match all seven colours to their fixed positions on the board and improve your strategy over time. • Daily Planets – A new challenge every day. All players around the world receive exactly the same board and compete to achieve the best time and move count before a new puzzle arrives the next day. • Online Duel – Challenge friends or compete against players online in live head-to-head matches to prove who can solve the puzzle faster. • Black Planets – The ultimate challenge. Target colours are shuffled and a mysterious black planet blocks your path, creating entirely new strategic possibilities. This special mode appears only occasionally, making every appearance a unique event. Compete & Improve • Unlock 15 achievements • Climb 5 leaderboards • Improve your time and move count • Compare your skills with players around the world • Master increasingly difficult challenges Whether you are looking for a relaxing puzzle, a daily brain workout, or competitive challenges, 7 PLANETS offers a unique wooden puzzle experience that is easy to learn and rewarding to master.

About

Water Sort

Features
Read full description

Sort the colors. Clear your mind. Water Sort is a calm color sort puzzle. Pour liquid between glass tubes until every tube holds a single color: tap a tube to lift the color sitting on top, tap another tube to pour it in. Easy to learn in seconds, genuinely tricky once twelve colors are on the board. HOW IT PLAYS - Tap a tube to pick up the color on top - Tap a second tube to pour, which works only if that tube is empty or already shows the same color - Clear the level when every color sits in a tube of its own - Stuck? Undo a pour, take a hint, or open up the board with an extra tube WHAT IS INSIDE - 200+ levels that grow from relaxing to brain-bending, with fresh ones always ready beyond that - A Daily Challenge with a streak worth keeping, separate from the level ladder - Fully offline: solve on a plane, on the subway, anywhere with no signal - 5 undos and 3 hints on every level - Dead-end detection tells you the moment a restart is faster than another pour - 10 color-liquid skins that reskin the whole board, unlocked by clearing levels - Soft water sounds and gentle haptics on every pour, both switchable off EVERY LEVEL IS SOLVABLE, AND THAT IS CHECKED Every level is run through an in-app solver before you ever see it. A shuffle that cannot be solved is thrown out and generated again, never shipped to you. If you do pour yourself into a corner, the game says so with a clear banner instead of letting you struggle in silence. 10 SKINS TO UNLOCK Spa, Sunset, Ocean, Forest, Berry, Candy, Royal, Mono, Lagoon and Sand. Each one reskins the tubes, the background and every color on the board, and each is earned by clearing levels rather than bought. ONE PURCHASE, NO MORE ADS Water Sort is free with ads: a banner on the menu and in a level, plus an occasional interstitial between levels. A single Remove Ads purchase takes both away for good on this device. There is no subscription and nothing else to buy. Rewarded video for an undo refill or an extra tube stays available afterward, entirely by choice. CALM, NOT COMPETITIVE No timer counting down, no lives to lose, no way to fail a level permanently. A wedged board is always one restart from a fresh, solvable shuffle. This is a sort puzzle for winding down, not for chasing a leaderboard. Play in 33 languages, picked from the in-app menu independently of your device language. Your progress stays on your device.
