Caterpillars everywhere — and every one of them is in the wrong place! Caterpillar Sort is a colorful puzzle where you untangle wiggly caterpillars and guide each one home to its burrow. Drag a caterpillar by its head or tail, slide it through the board and watch it dive into the burrow. Fill every burrow with one color to clear the level. Sounds simple? Each burrow is a narrow tube: the caterpillar at the mouth has to leave before the one behind it can get out, and a newcomer only fits on top of its own color. Plan the order, free up the jam, and find the one move that sets everything in motion. HOW TO PLAY • Grab a caterpillar by either end and drag it across the board • Guide it into a burrow — it settles in the deepest free spot • Fill each burrow with caterpillars of the same color • Clear every burrow to win the level FEATURES • Handcrafted levels, from relaxing warm-ups to real brain teasers • Shaped boards and twisting mazes that change how you think every level • New twists as you progress: colored burrows, mystery caterpillars, locked shutters and ivy that only falls away when you clear enough burrows • Drag or tap — play the way that feels best to you • Beat the clock to earn more coins • Cute, squishy caterpillars that follow your finger and celebrate every win • Short levels, perfect for a quick break — or a long puzzle session • A gentle tutorial introduces every new mechanic Untangle the jam, sort the colors and give every caterpillar a cozy home. How far can you go?
