About

Bar Sort

Features
Read full description

Bar Sort is an addictive color sorting puzzle game that is as relaxing as it is challenging. If you love games that test your logic but don't stress you out, this is the perfect game for you. The goal is simple: sort the colored bars into the tubes until each tube holds only one color and all bars of the same color are in the same tube. It sounds easy, but you'll need to plan your moves carefully to solve increasingly complex patterns.

Pixel Tale Tiles

Features
Read full description

Follow the numbers, paint the tiles, and watch a picture come to life — a nonogram-style logic puzzle wrapped in storybook art. Unlock 48 pixel-art illustrations inspired by fairy tales from around the world and Japan: Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Momotaro, Princess Kaguya, and more. Each number shows how many "light" tiles are in the 3Ɨ3 block around that cell. That's the only rule — just logic, no trivia. • Drag with two fingers or the D-pad to move, press and hold to switch paint color, pinch to zoom • A small celebration on every unlock, plus a synopsis for each story in your gallery • Fully offline, auto-saved progress, adjustable BGM/SE volume • Automatically supports Japanese & English Solve one tile at a time, whenever you have a spare moment — how many of the 48 tales can you bring to light?
