Adopt a pixel pet and give it the best life you can. Pixel Pet Paradise is a cozy virtual-pet game about raising a little friend from its first day to its last. Feed it, play with it, keep it clean and rested, and watch it grow through four life stages over a 100-day journey. CHOOSE YOUR PET Dog, Cat, Dragon, Bunny, or Dino — each with its own look at every stage and its own favorite snack. EIGHT MINIGAMES Tap Attack, Food Catch, Pet Flight, Frisbee Catch, Laser Chase, Pet Pairs, Picture Puzzle, and a full game of Solitaire with your pet's face on the cards. Every one earns coins. A SHOP WORTH SAVING FOR 40 items — toys, outfits, hats, collars and room decor. Mix and match accessories: a top hat, sunglasses, a scarf and a sparkling magic wand all at once. Nothing is locked behind a paywall. Everything is earned by playing. GROW A GARDEN Plant carrots, sweet potatoes and golden apples. Water them, harvest them, and feed your pet for free. EXPLORE Wander between the bedroom, bathroom, yard and park. Play fetch, chase a laser, watch the seasons change — rain, snow, and a full day-and-night cycle. FIND THE SECRETS There are hidden surprises tucked all over this game. Tap things. Hold things. Try the odd thing. Some of them were designed by my sons. WATCH THEM GROW A framed growth chart on the bedroom wall tracks exactly how tall your pet has gotten, day by day, from baby to elder. No ads. No in-app purchases. No accounts. Nothing is collected — your pet lives entirely on your device. Made by a dad and his two boys.

About

Sort The Mess!

Features
Read full description

Sort the Mess is a tidy-up puzzle where the furniture moves. Plush animals, fruit and snacks, school supplies, garden critters and a room full of treasure are piled on the floor. Tap a set, drop it into the cabinet, watch the room come together. Simple… until a compartment is one slot too small and the only way forward is to slide the shelf itself. HOW IT PLAYS • Tap matching items to pick them up, then tap a compartment to put them away. • Grab a handle to slide a partition and resize the compartments on either side. • Some shelves ride a rail: send them up a floor to free space below. • Keys open locked doors. Golden slots wait for the one piece that belongs there. • Put the wrong thing away? Double-tap the row to empty it and try again. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Fitting is not the same as right. Some sets slide in nicely and block everything else. Spotting them is the game. • Nothing is hidden. When a shelf refuses to move, something is in the way, and you can see what. • One thumb, short levels. Each new idea is shown in one level, then mixed with the ones before. 100 HAND-MADE LEVELS IN 5 ROOMS Toy Room, Kitchen, Classroom, Garden and Treasure Room, each with its own objects and its own kind of trap. New mechanics arrive every few levels, so the game keeps changing shape all the way to the end. Satisfying pops, a clean floor, a little confetti. Then the next mess.
