The bus is pulling in. The crowd is huge, they are shuffling in place, waiting to board. Your job: send the right colored buses into the loop, scoop up the matching stickmen, and clear the whole crowd before a bad call stalls the road and jams every bus behind it. Hop N Loop is a cozy, relaxing color sort puzzle. See the art of stickmen and watch the pattern melt away a row at a time. Quiet, steady progress you can play all afternoon. Tap. Loop. Fill. Repeat. HOW TO PLAY 1. Tap a colored bus from the queue to send it into the loop. 2. The bus circles past the crowd, picking up matching stickmen as it rolls. 3. When it fills up, it rolls off — a new bus takes its place. 4. Clear the whole crowd to win. Let the loop stall with no matching colors in the bottom row, and you lose. Simple to pick up. Surprisingly tricky to master. For anyone who loves sort puzzles, crowd games, pixel art, and the oddly-specific joy of a fully-loaded bus — Hop N Loop was made for you. The bus is waiting. The crowd is getting restless. Hop on.
