Sortlock vs Zen Sort

Sortlock is a colour-sort puzzle with a brain. Pour balls between flasks until each flask holds a single colour — the satisfying sort you already love. The twist: some balls are hidden under a "?", and you have to DEDUCE their colour before you move. No guessing, no luck — just clean logic. Every board is built by a solver that guarantees exactly one logical solution, so a hidden ball can always be worked out from the clues: colour counts, flask rules and the balls you've already revealed. Think Sort × Minesweeper × Mastermind, in one calm puzzle. HOW TO PLAY • Tap a flask, then another, to pour the top ball across. • Make every flask a single colour to solve the board. • Some balls are hidden ("?") — read the clues and deduce their colour. • Every level is guaranteed solvable by logic alone. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT • A real deduction layer — not another mindless tap-sorter. • Adaptive difficulty keeps you in the zone: the engine learns your pace and tunes colours, hidden balls and empty flasks to you. • Endless, always-solvable content — boards are generated on the fly, never a dead end. • Colour-blind friendly: every colour also shows a letter (R/B/G/Y…); hidden is "?". A BOARD FOR THE WHOLE WORLD • One shared Daily Board every day — the exact same puzzle for everyone. • Climb the daily ranking: fewest moves, then fastest time. • No spoilers — share a clean result card and a unique link to your run. ECHO DUELS — DEDUCTION, HEAD TO HEAD • Race a rival's "echo": an asynchronous replay of how someone else cracked today's board. • Get matched to your skill, or challenge a friend with a 6-character code. • Win on fewer moves and tighter reasoning — no real-time servers needed. CALM BY DESIGN • No timers on normal play, no pressure, no dark patterns. • Plays fully offline — the daily board and duels are the only online extras. • Free to play: no ads and no in-app purchases in this version. Sortlock is made for quiet, thoughtful moments: a coffee break, a commute, or winding down before bed. Sort blind, think it through, and find your flow.

Some puzzle games want your attention. Zen Sort just wants to keep you company. Pour little animals between glass jars until each one holds a single kind of friend. That's the whole game. There is no timer counting down, no lives to run out, and no way to lose — only a quiet, satisfying click as the last crab settles into place. A GAME THAT NEVER RUSHES YOU • No timers. No lives. No energy meter, ever. • Unlimited undo, always free — never watch an ad to fix a mistake • Par moves are a gentle target, not a punishment • Put it down mid-level and it waits exactly where you left it 3,000 LEVELS, EVERY ONE SOLVABLE Every single level is verified by a solver before it ships, so you will never hit an impossible board. They open gently — four colours at first — and grow to twelve as you find your rhythm. MEET THE SHORE FRIENDS Sort a crab, a sleepy fox, a chick, a frog, a little whale and more. Each one has its own soft voice, so you hear who is moving. Unlock a theme and the whole cast changes with it — nocturnal creatures for Tide Night, garden visitors for Zen Garden. ONE MINDFUL SORT A DAY The Daily Calm is the same puzzle for everyone, refreshed each morning. Keep a streak if you like streaks — and if life gets in the way, a free monthly freeze covers a missed day. No guilt built in. A SHORE THAT FILLS UP Stars wash treasures onto your beach: sea glass, a striped pebble, a message in a bottle, eventually a lighthouse. Twelve to find, all earned by playing. MADE TO BE KIND • Colourblind-friendly — every friend is a different shape, not just a colour • Full VoiceOver support • Reduced-motion setting for anyone who prefers things still • Plays completely offline No leaderboards. No rivals. No streak-shaming. Just you, a beach, and something gentle to tidy.
