Welcome to Bus Out!, a colorful sorting puzzle where every move matters! The area is packed with passengers and buses of different colors. Tap buses to send them into the parking area and tap passengers to move them to the station. Passengers automatically board a bus of the same color. Once every seat is filled, the bus drives away and frees up space for your next move. Your goal is simple: get every passenger on the right bus and clear the entire area! TWO SPACES, ONE CHALLENGE Both the bus parking area and the passenger station have limited capacity. Send the wrong buses into the parking area, and you may not have room for the colors you need. Move too many unmatched passengers into the station, and the crowd could fill every available space. Think ahead, choose the right order, and keep the station moving before you run out of room!
