Shape Sort Rush
Sort a stream of coloured shapes into the right bin as fast as you can. Every few shapes the rule flips between sorting by shape and sorting by colour, so stay sharp or the clock wins.
How to play
- A shape appears in the middle. Tap the matching bin, drag the shape onto it, or press 1, 2 or 3.
- The rule says whether to sort by shape or by colour. The bins and the rule change after every 8 shapes.
- You start with 45 seconds. A right answer adds a little time and builds a streak, while a wrong one costs 3 seconds.
- Points grow with your streak. The game ends when the clock reaches zero.
Tips and strategy
- Check the rule line above the shape each time it might have changed, since the bins swap contents too.
- A long streak is worth far more than raw speed, so a careful correct answer beats a fast wrong one.
- Keys 1, 2 and 3 map to the bins left to right and are faster than reaching for the screen.
- The rule flips every 8 shapes, so count down and be ready for the change.
FAQ
- What do the bins contain after the rule changes?
- When the rule is colour, the bins show red, blue and green. When it is shape, they show circle, square and triangle.
- Does a wrong answer reset my streak?
- Yes. A miss also takes 3 seconds off the clock.
- Can I drag the shape?
- Yes, on a computer. On a touch screen, tapping the bin is the quick way to sort.
