Orbit Sort

Read full description

Rotate the rings. Sort every color home. Tap a ring to turn it and the colored balls ride along. Where two rings cross, a ball belongs to both, so one turn sets up the next. 5,000 levels, from a single ring to five overlapping rings. HOW IT WORKS • Tap a ring to rotate it. • Balls on a crossing point move with either ring. Use that to pass colors from one ring to another. • Fill every home socket with its matching color before you run out of moves. THINK AT YOUR OWN PACE • No timers. Take as long as you need. • Undo any move. Restart any level. • Out of moves? Retry, or watch an optional ad for +20 moves. • Stuck on one? Watch an optional ad to skip it. 5,000 LEVELS Start with one ring and learn in seconds. Add a second ring and things get interesting. By five rings, every move counts. 9 BALL SKINS TO COLLECT Common, rare and epic skins. Unlock them by reaching level milestones or by watching an ad. CALM BY DESIGN A dark, minimal look with nothing in the way of the puzzle. A short tutorial, then it's all you. Free to play, with a banner ad and optional rewarded ads. No in-app purchases.
