Fish Sort Puzzle

The core idea is a match-three sorter set in an aquarium. You tap to collect three identical sea creatures, and each completed set adds to your fishbowl.

Space is limited, so every tap has a cost. The board can fill up if you grab fish without a plan, which makes the game about looking ahead rather than tapping fast.

A level starts with a mixed group of cartoon fish. You pick matches carefully, clear the group and move on to a new layout. Layouts change from level to level, so the same habits do not always work.

Some stages add orders that must be finished before time runs out, and newer species make the matching faster. Solved puzzles also unlock rarer species, which gradually fill out your underwater collection.

The visuals are bright ocean backdrops with cartoon animals, and animations react to each move. The game has 8 screenshots on its Google Play page, all in this same colorful style.

Fish Sort Puzzle sits close to Ball Sort Puzzle and Magic Sort! in the sorting idea, but it uses the three-of-a-kind tap from tile games such as Tile Club, Tile Park, Mahjong Blast and Vita Mahjong. If you want mahjong tiles, those are the better fit. If you prefer animals and a collection that grows, this one is the closer match.

Its Google Play score of 4.8 from about 103 thousand ratings is a strong showing, and the game has passed 1 million installs there.

Fish Sort Puzzle is distributed through Google Play, which handles installation and updates. The publisher is Shycheese, with a website at shycheese.com. The game is rated Everyone and shows ads, and it sells in-app purchases, so watch purchase settings if children play.
