Donut Shuffle

Read full description

Sort, stack, and deliver in the sweetest puzzle in town! Donut Shuffle is a colorful sorting puzzle where every column is a stack of donuts waiting to be organized. Tap to pick up a donut, tap again to drop it onto a matching stack, and clear the board by sorting every flavor into its own tidy column. HOW TO PLAY • Tap a column to grab the donut on top. • Tap another column to drop it — donuts only stack on a matching flavor or an empty peg. • Fill a column with donuts of the same flavor to complete a customer's order. • Clear every order to finish the level! EXPLORE THE CITY Deliver your way across five neighborhoods — Sweet Street, Sunny Bakery, Downtown Donuts, Rainbow Café, and the Grand Donut Mall — each with its own look and growing challenge. TRICKY TWISTS • Hidden flavors: starting at level 10, buried donuts hide their color until you dig them out. • Locked donuts and pegs that need a key to free. • Timed orders in later levels that test how fast you can think on your feet. HANDY TOOLS Stuck? Use Undo to take back a move, an Extra Peg for more room to maneuver, a Spyglass to peek at hidden flavors, a Shovel to uncover a buried donut, or a Key to unlock a stuck peg. EARN & COLLECT Complete levels to earn stars and coins, then spend your coins on power-ups to breeze through tougher boards. • Hundreds of levels and counting • Simple tap controls, easy to learn • No account or sign-in required • Optional in-app coin packs and a Remove Ads upgrade Grab a box, roll up your sleeves, and start sorting — Donut Shuffle is puzzle fun the whole family can enjoy!

About

Potionary

Read full description

Sort the potions. Fill the book. Potionary is a colour-sort puzzle with an alchemist's notebook behind it. Pour glowing liquid from flask to flask until each one holds a single colour — and every few puzzles, a new recipe appears in your Alchemy Journal. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Every level is proven solvable by a solver before you ever see it. No impossible boards, ever. • Forty hand-built opening levels that teach one idea at a time, then a measured difficulty curve for as long as you want to keep going. • An Alchemy Journal that turns the stars you earn into a collection worth finishing. MECHANICS THAT ARRIVE WHEN YOU ARE READY • Hidden potions that reveal themselves only at the top of a flask • Covered flasks that unlock as you finish others • Undo, Shuffle, Extra Flask and Hint — introduced one at a time MADE TO BE PLAYED ANYWHERE • Fully offline. No account, no login, no sign-up. • No lives and no energy timer. Being stuck is a puzzle to solve, not a wall to wait behind — Restart is always free. • Every bottle, star and drop of liquid is drawn in code — there is not a single image file in the game. Free to play, with optional ads and optional rewards.
