Sort Hurdle

Coming to iOS

One colour-sort board a day,
the same for everyone.

Ball sort and water sort in one game. Everybody gets the identical board each day, and the only thing that separates you is how fast you clear it. Sort it, file your time, and see where you land.

The Daily Hurdle

One board a day, released at midnight in your own timezone — ball sort on some days, water sort on others. One attempt: the clock starts when you open it and keeps running if you leave.

Your time goes on a leaderboard of the day’s fastest clears, and a calendar keeps every day you have played.

Two ladders

A water ladder and a ball ladder, level after level, through worlds of their own. Some levels bend the tubes into an arch, hide the colours under mystery layers, or freeze a vessel for a few moves.

Ladder levels are not timed and never touch your daily run. Earn up to three stars on each.

Hints, undo, coins, and Plus

Every board comes with one free hint. After that a hint costs coins, and if you are short the game offers you one ad for one hint instead, so running out of coins never stops you. Every board also comes with five undos; when they run out, one ad brings five more — and if no ad is available, you get them anyway.

Coins also buy an extra empty tube on a ladder level (a level cleared with it earns one star at most) and open a day you missed, though one ad opens that day too. You earn coins from a daily bonus the first time you open the game each day — an ad doubles it — and from ads you choose to watch, or you can buy them. None of it is required to play.

Sort Hurdle Plus is a subscription that removes the banner and the full-screen ads, opens every past daily, and starts every board with three free hints instead of one. A one-time Remove Ads purchase does the ad half on its own. Either way, the ads you choose to watch for a reward stay available. The daily board ranks on time alone, and the extra tube is never sold on it.

No account, no sign-in

The game works from the moment you open it. It creates an anonymous identifier on your device, and your coins, runs and purchases belong to that — not to your name or your email, which the game never asks for.

On the leaderboard you appear under a name the game made up for you. The privacy policy sets out exactly what is kept and who sees it.
