Tap a bean, watch it roll, fill the basket. Sort-a-Bean is a cozy sorting puzzle with hundreds of beans, a pea pod, and a heap that's always one good tap from clearing. HOW TO PLAY • Every bean lies the way it will roll. Tap it and off it goes. • Match beans to baskets of their color. Fill a basket and it's carried away. • Clear the table to finish the level. EASY TO LEARN, SATISFYING TO MASTER • Beans on top come off first. Dig for the ones underneath. • Taller stacks block the roll. Read the heap, then tap. • No basket out yet? Park a bean in the pod. Seats are few, so choose well. • Sprouts tie two beans to one stem. Take one and both come along. A GAME THAT GROWS WITH YOU • 500 levels in chapters of ten, gentle at first, with HARD levels announced on the way in. • A new daily puzzle, the same for everyone, every day. • A pod to open every day, with a bigger one at the end of the week. • Hidden pictures poured into the heaps, and a levels map that changes as you journey deeper. • Every level can be finished without spending a thing. TOOLS FOR WHEN YOU'RE STUCK • Sort fills every basket you have out and seals them. • Magnet lifts any one bean straight off the table, whatever is in its way. • Shuffle puts the heap back down a different way. • Earn coins by finishing levels and opening your daily pod. COZY BY DESIGN • Colorblind mode, and an optional daily reminder you can turn off any time. • Most levels take two to four minutes. Good for a bus stop or a cup of tea. Pour a heap. Sort a bean. Clear the table.
