Welcome to Cup Stack Quest – a fresh twist on cup-stacking puzzles! On a dynamic grid of stacked cups, every tap triggers its neighbors in a satisfying blast chain. Your queued cup must match the color of a stack’s base to join it; otherwise it’s sent to a zenbar. Each zenbar holds up to five cups of the same hue. Fill all zenbars and you’ll fail—so plan each move carefully! When the queue is emptied by perfect color matches, you conquer the level.

About

Sharpener Jam

Features
Read full description

Sharpener Jam is a fun and addictive puzzle game where you try to clear the board by matching colored pencils with the correct sharpeners. Each sharpener can only shave pencils of its own color. Sharpeners can only move when the path in front of them is clear and can reach the pencils. As you shave pencil pieces, the board gets cleaner — but be careful! One wrong move can block the holder.
