The supermarket is a mess. It’s your job to put everything back where it belongs. Products are scattered everywhere, shelves are empty, and the whole store is in chaos. In Where It Belongs, your goal is to restore order by figuring out where each product should go. Read the clues, follow the relationships between items, and place every product on the correct shelf. TURN CHAOS INTO ORDER Every level starts messy. Products are piled up, shelves are waiting to be filled, and nothing is where it should be. With every correct placement, the chaos slowly disappears. The product pile gets smaller, the shelves fill up, and the supermarket starts to look organized again. SOLVE THE CLUES Not every product tells you exactly where it belongs. One item may be above another, next to a different product, in the same row, or connected through another clue. Use the information you already have to work out the rest. THINK, PLACE, ORGANIZE • Pick a product • Read the clues • Find the correct shelf • Place it where it belongs • Keep organizing until the whole supermarket is complete WATCH THE STORE COME TOGETHER Each correct decision makes the scene cleaner and more satisfying. What begins as a chaotic pile of products gradually turns into a fully stocked, organized supermarket. MORE PRODUCTS, MORE SHELVES, DEEPER PUZZLES Organize snacks, drinks, fresh produce, frozen food, cleaning supplies, pet products, personal care items, and more. As you progress, new clue types and more complex shelf layouts make each supermarket harder to organize. MAKE EVERY SECOND COUNT Sometimes you can follow the clues. Sometimes you may want to trust your deduction and take a chance. Wrong placements cost time, so choose carefully. Clear the mess. Fill the shelves. Restore the supermarket. Put everything Where It Belongs.
