What belongs together? Find the right cards and clear the board one category at a time. Every board is built from stacks of charming illustrated cards. Only uncovered cards can be moved. Sort them into the categories on display, reveal the pictures underneath and decide which stack to tackle first. Completing a category makes room for the next one. With only a few holding spaces available, finding the right order is the heart of every puzzle. Sortello starts gently and becomes more thoughtful one step at a time. Early levels give you plenty of room to experiment; later puzzles reward planning ahead. If a solution slips away, restart the level with the same card layout. Learn from each move and try a smarter route next time. WHAT AWAITS YOU • 2,000 varied category puzzles • An easy start with a clear interactive tutorial • Charming, easy-to-recognize illustrations • A fair progression from relaxing to challenging • No timers, lives or forced waiting • The same card layout every time you retry • Optional hint, undo and magnet helpers • Personal bests and Master Stamps • A category collection to discover • Avatars, frames and backgrounds to unlock • Optional iCloud sync and Game Center achievements • Offline play with no Sortello account required Every level is automatically checked for a valid solution and can be completed without making a purchase. Helpers and extra space are optional for players who want a more forgiving route. Sortello is free to play. Rewarded ads offer clearly explained extras. Interstitial ads appear only between rounds, never during an active level. Sortello Plus removes required ads and includes exclusive customization extras. Whether you have a minute to spare or want to settle in for a longer session, Sortello blends calm sorting with the satisfying feeling of putting everything in its place.
