CleanSort vs Blocksways

No ads, no pop-ups, no "watch a video to continue." No fake currency. No timers pressuring you. No puzzle secretly rigged to be unsolvable so you'll watch a rescue ad. CleanSort is ball sort the way it should have been all along — a calm, honest color-sorting puzzle you can play on a plane, hand to a kid, or share with a friend, without anyone trying to sell you something or interrupt your train of thought. WHAT MAKES IT CLEAN - No ads, ever. Not between levels, not on restart, not mid-puzzle — and not a banner parked at the bottom of the screen. None. - No in-app purchases, no subscriptions, no "premium." The whole app is yours. - Every new deal is guaranteed solvable — checked by a built-in solver before you ever see it. You'll never be handed an impossible puzzle. - Works fully offline. No account, no sign-in, no tracking. BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY LIKE THE GAME - Unlimited undo — take back as many moves as you want, no penalty, no watching anything. - Optional hints when you're stuck — and a hint is the real answer: the first move of a shortest solution, not a guess. (Games you needed a hint on don't count as clean wins. Fair's fair.) - The grudge list: needed a hint? That deal is remembered. Rematch it any time — beat it without help, and the grudge is redeemed. - Bookmarks: mark a position you're unsure about, experiment freely, and jump straight back. - Smart pours: a run of same-colored balls moves together in one move, the way the puzzle really works. SHARE PUZZLES WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY Every deal has a short shareable code. Send a fiendish one to a friend, or compare how you each cracked the same puzzle. WHY IT EXISTS I got tired of ball sort apps stuffed with ads and dark patterns, and I wanted my own kids to have a clean one. So I made it, and I'm sharing it. That's the whole story.

A calm, uncluttered take on the block puzzle — no timer and no pressure. How to play Drag the three shapes from the tray onto the 9×9 grid. Fill a whole row or a whole column and it clears away, making room for more. Once you've placed all three shapes, a new set of three appears. The game ends when none of the shapes will fit anywhere on the board — so every move is about keeping your options open. Completely free — no ads, no accounts, nothing locked behind a purchase. There's an optional tip jar if you'd like to support development. Turn and plan ahead Double-tap any shape in the tray to turn it a quarter turn, as often as you like. The next three shapes are shown under the tray so you can plan your moves — or hide them in Settings for a tougher game. Score and combos You earn points for every block you place, and more for clearing lines. Clear more than one line at once, or clear lines on back-to-back moves, and you'll pick up a bonus on top. A running combo shows on screen, and emptying the whole board earns a big bonus. Your highest score is saved on your device. Daily Puzzle A new puzzle every day. Start from a partly filled board with nine set shapes, in three sets of three, and score as high as you can to earn up to three stars. The week gets harder as it goes, from easy on Monday to expert on Sunday, and you can try again as often as you like. Your results and your streak of consecutive days are saved on your device. Gets tougher as you go As your score climbs, new shapes join the mix. Each new shape is guaranteed to turn up in the next set of shapes drawn, so you won't wait long to try it. The small shapes still turn up, just less often, so the further you get, the more every move counts. No timer There's no clock and no move limit. Take as long as you like over each placement — the only thing that ends a game is running out of room. Clean, quiet design No internet connection required. No sign-up, no notifications, no nonsense. Just you and the grid.
