Welcome to Nut Stack:Sort Puzzle, the relaxing sorting game where colorful nuts are scattered across screws, and it’s up to you to bring order. Your goal is simple: move the nuts one by one until every screw holds a perfect stack of a single color. No timers. No rush. Just the calm satisfaction of watching messy piles transform into neat, matching towers. Game Features: - Sort, Stack, and Solve Each level gives you a set of screws loaded with mixed-up colorful nuts. Pick up the top nut from any screw and place it onto another — but only if the colors match or the screw is empty. It’s easy to pick up, yet every move asks you to plan ahead. - A Fresh Twist on Classic Sorting If you love water sort or ball sort puzzles, you’ll feel right at home. Nut Stack:Sort Puzzle takes that familiar, deeply satisfying sorting loop and gives it a tactile new feel — Stacking nuts onto screws feels crisp, chunky, and impossibly satisfying. - Relax at Your Own Pace There are no clocks, no countdowns, and no fail states. Take as much time as you need. Undo a move, rethink your strategy, and enjoy the soothing rhythm of sorting. This is a puzzle game designed to calm your mind, not test your nerves. - From Simple to Clever Early levels are gentle and welcoming, with just a few colors and plenty of room to move. As you progress, more screws, more nuts, and tighter arrangements appear — turning each puzzle into a quietly rewarding brain teaser that keeps you engaged without ever feeling unfair. - Satisfying Every Time When the last nut clicks into place and a messy screw becomes a flawless single-color stack, the moment is pure satisfaction. Smooth animations and gentle sound effects make every completion feel like a small victory. Why You’ll Love Nut Stack:Sort Puzzle: - If you love sorting, organizing, and tidying things up, this game was made for you. - If you enjoy puzzle games that let you play at your own speed — on the couch, on a break, or winding down at night — you’ll feel right at home. - If you’re looking for a distraction-free game that keeps your mind quietly engaged without stress, this is it. - If you find joy in watching scattered pieces come together into perfect order, you’ll keep coming back for more. Download Nut Stack:Sort Puzzle today and start sorting the nuts, one move at a time.

Sort Hurdle

Features
Read full description

Pour, sort and clear. Sort Hurdle is a colour-sorting puzzle in two flavours — liquid you pour from bottle to bottle, and balls you drop from tube to tube. Stack each colour in a container of its own to clear the board. Every level is checked by a solver before you play it, so every board can be won. Think it through, or pour and see — there is no timer. THE JOURNEY Three hundred levels through fifteen places. Every tenth level is a boss with a twist, and every chapter ends with a chest of coins. New pieces arrive along the way: corked bottles, tagged bottles, locks with buried keys, and a bird to set free. THE DAILY HURDLE One puzzle a day, the same for everyone, ranked on the fewest moves — never on time. Build a streak on the calendar, see how you did against everyone else, and play the days you missed. MORE WAYS TO PLAY • Clear the Table — thirty tables in a busy restaurant: pour the bottles into sets and serve every guest. • The Water and Ball ladders — six worlds of a hundred levels each, for each kind of board. • Seasonal events — limited-time level packs while they run. HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT Undo a move, take a hint, add an empty tube or shuffle the colours into a fresh layout. Every board comes with a free hint; more help costs coins or a short optional video. No account needed. Sign in with Apple or email if you want your coins kept safe. SORT HURDLE PLUS An optional subscription, monthly or yearly: no banner or pop-up ads, every past daily open, and three free hints on every level and daily instead of one. Videos you choose to watch for coins stay on offer. It renews automatically until cancelled; manage or cancel it in your Apple ID settings. Remove Ads is also available as a one-time purchase.
