ShiftOut is a puzzle where your moves turn into music. You push blocks across the board to place them on target tiles, and each move sounds like a piano key. As you solve a level, a melody composes itself. What's inside — Dozens of levels: from gentle warm-ups to puzzles worth a cup of tea — Real piano samples instead of the usual beeps — No timers, no lives, no ads mid-move — Minimal visuals — nothing in the way — One-handed play — perfect on the go or before sleep Who it's for Fans of calm puzzles in the spirit of Monument Valley, and lovers of classic block-pushers like Sokoban. Adults unwinding after work, kids who want to think — here you can't lose, only think again. How to play Swipe, and a block slides until it hits something. Place every block on its target. Sounds simple — wait until level ten. Turn the sound on, and try it.
