Overview
Sort Birds gives the color-sorting formula feathers - and a clock. Bright birds jumble across the branches, and your job is to shuffle them perch to perch until four of a kind share a branch, at which point the whole flock takes off for its nest. Each level gives you 200 seconds and a fresh tangle; later boards add more colors, tighter branches and a Hard Mode for good measure.

Objective and input
How to Play
Tap a branch to pick up its outermost bird - or the whole matching group sitting at the tip - then tap the branch they should move to. A move lands only if the destination has room and a matching top bird; a bad target just ruffles feathers. Complete a flock of four and the birds fly home, shattering the empty branch behind them while the pool tops the tree back up. Clear every flock before the 200-second timer runs out; undo, shuffle and an extra branch are there when a board jams.

What stands out
Features
Flocks of four
Birds move in matching tip groups, and a completed four of a kind flies off to its nest, freeing the branch below.
200 seconds a board
Every level runs a visible countdown - generous, but real - with a warning chirp as it runs low.
A booster for every jam
Undo the last move, shuffle the tree, remove a stray bird or add a whole branch when the sorting stalls.
Levels and a Hard Mode
Boards stack more colors and tighter perches as you climb, with a separate Hard Mode and a five-heart stamina bar keeping the loop going.

Gameplay Tips
- 1
Free a branch early - an empty perch is the most valuable space on the tree.
- 2
Move whole matching groups when you can; single-bird moves are for digging out buried colors.
- 3
Watch the clock after the halfway mark; a tidy board beats a perfect one.
Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I move birds?
Tap a branch to lift its outermost bird or matching group, then tap the destination - it needs a free seat and a matching top bird.
What clears a level?
Gather every color into flocks of four; completed flocks fly to their nests and the empty branches shatter.
Is there a timer?
Yes - 200 seconds per level, with a low-time warning. Boosters like undo and an extra branch help you beat it.
What are the hearts for?
Each level spends stamina from a five-heart bar that refills over time - one heart back every twenty minutes.
