Nuts Puzzle: Sort By Color is a classic sorting puzzle where color-coded nuts get organized onto screws until every screw holds a single color. As levels advance, the puzzles grow trickier, demanding careful planning and several moves of forward thinking — each clean sort delivers a genuine sense of accomplishment. Beyond the core sorting challenge, a progression system lets you gradually repair a garden by fixing its flowers, backed by beautiful, vibrant visuals throughout.
Tap a nut to select it, then tap the screw where you want to place it. A nut can only land on an empty screw or one whose top nut matches the color being moved. The goal is to arrange every screw so it holds nuts of just one color.
Later levels introduce hard mode, which hides a nut's color beneath a question mark until the piece above it is moved. This forces you to think ahead without full information, adding a memory and strategy layer on top of the standard sorting logic.
Every level includes an undo button, a reset button, and an extra screw option. The undo button has a limited number of uses, but those uses are restored at the start of each level. Tapping the screw icon adds an extra screw to open up more space. Reset wipes the level back to its starting state when no other option remains.
Coins are an in-game currency spent on power-ups, such as adding an extra bolt to free up sorting space.
Nuts is a separate currency spent on repairing the garden, progressively restoring the flowers in the meta-game.
Extra screws are won from chests and from the winner's wheel — they aren't available through any other means.
Chests unlock upon reaching certain in-game levels and can drop game bonuses and in-game currency.
Yes — the money piggy bank accumulates Coins while you're away from the game.
