A fresh match-and-sort puzzle twist: match colorful shapes, help the characters, and complete every goal before your moves run out! Match Sort is a colorful match-3 puzzle where the goals keep changing. Swap pieces to match 3 or more identical shapes, complete the three active Character Goals, and adapt as the next character enters the queue. Matches and cascades can both advance your goals, so a carefully planned move can create a powerful chain reaction. MATCH 3 OR MORE Swap neighboring pieces to create satisfying matches with bright, colorful shapes. Plan ahead, trigger cascades, and reshape the board as you work through each level. CREATE POWERFUL SPECIALS Match four shapes to create Twin Arrows, form T- or L-shaped matches to create powerful Bursts, and match five or more to create a six-color Spectrum Hex. Combine special pieces to unleash even bigger effects and turn difficult boards around. COMPLETE CHARACTER GOALS Three Character Goals are active at a time. Match their requested shapes to complete them and bring new characters forward. A preview shows which character is coming next, helping you plan for the changing goal sequence. MAKE EVERY MOVE COUNT Each level gives you a limited number of moves. Use matches, cascades and special combinations wisely to complete the entire goal sequence before the move counter reaches zero. HELPFUL BONUSES Use the Hammer to remove a shape from the grid. Activate Clear Goal to complete one of the three current Character Goals and bring the next one forward. Need one last chance? Use +1 Move to continue playing. PICTURE REWARDS Complete levels, make progress, and unlock beautiful picture rewards as you play. Easy to learn, satisfying to master, and filled with colorful puzzle strategy. Match the shapes, complete the Character Goals, and master the changing queue!

Stack the bowls. Merge the menu. Keep the counter clear. Slide a bowl up the counter and match it with its twin. Two miso soups become udon. Two udon become tempura. Keep going and you climb a ladder of Japanese dishes, each one better than the last โ but let the bowls pile up past the red line and service is over. HOW IT PLAYS โข Drag to aim, release to send a bowl up the counter โข Two matching bowls merge into the next dish up the chain โข Every level names a goal dish โ build it to serve your diners โข Physics does the rest: bowls jostle, settle and cascade UNLOCK THE MENU Kitsune Udon. Tempura Udon. Salmon Ikura Don. Beef Gyudon. Rainbow Poke Bowl. Ultimate Deluxe Ramen. Every dish you create is added to your shelf under its real name, with the rest waiting under silver cloches. Over 50 dishes to discover across 72 levels. BUILD YOUR RESTAURANT Coins from every service go back into the place. Expand the counter, upgrade the storefront and watch a modest little bar grow into somewhere worth queuing for. BOOSTERS WHEN IT GETS TIGHT โข Magnet โ pull the counter together and merge everything at once โข Precision โ line up the shot you cannot afford to miss EASY TO START, HARD TO PUT DOWN One-finger controls and no timers. Take as long as you like on a level โ the only pressure is the red line creeping closer. Itadaki means "let's eat." Let's go!
