Sortobot is a friendly little factory where the belts never stop. Packages roll out of the machine and head for the bins. Your job is simple, and there is only ever one thing to do: tap a diverter to flip which way the belt sends the next package. Red triangles to the red bin, blue circles to the blue bin, and so on. Three wrong sorts and the machine overloads — so keep your eyes on the belt. Every colour is paired with its own shape, on the packages and on the bins, so you are never guessing which is which. 155 levels across six factory halls - Startband — the basics, at a gentle pace - Farbwerk — painters that recolour packages on the way past - Nachtschicht — tunnels that hide the belt, and gates that open on a timer - Turbohalle — splitters, speed zones, and five colours at once - Chaoszentrale — bins that swap places while you are watching - Remix — everything at once Play it your way - A Bonus Shift every day: an extra level, generated fresh and identical for everyone — and it works with the phone in airplane mode - Collect bonus gears by taking the risky route - Earn coins and spend them on belt themes, backgrounds, package skins and hats for your robot — on one-level boosters when a shift gets too hot, on continuing a run that went wrong, or on refilling your hearts - Find robot cards and fill in the album What this game does not do - No ads. None. - No tracking, no analytics, no account, no internet needed. - No timers you can pay to skip, and nothing you can only buy: every purchase is optional, and everything coins buy can also be earned by playing. The optional purchases are coin packs, a lives refill, and a one-time purchase that removes the lives system for good. Sortobot works completely offline. Nothing you do here leaves your phone.
