What is Sort It Out: Category Sort?

A fast-paced, head-to-head card sorting game. Cards are stacked on a wooden tabletop grid, each showing an emoji or icon (animals, food, tech, sports, and more). You race a rival to sort cards into the right category slots before the clock runs out.

Each match is a 90-second duel. You and your opponent share the same kind of puzzle: stacks of mixed cards and gold goal slots labeled with categories like Animals, Food, or Tech. Whoever completes the most full categories when time expires wins.

How to play Sort It Out: Category Sort

Complete more categories than your rival before the timer hits zero.

Each completed category counts as 1 point. Ties go to you.

The Board

A 5×4 grid of cells on a wooden table.

Some cells are gold category goal slots (e.g. “Animals 0/6”) — drop matching cards here.

Other cells hold stacks of cards — only the top card of each stack can be grabbed.

A shelf of 5 free slots runs along the bottom for temporary storage.

Each match uses 3 categories, with 5–7 cards per category depending on difficulty.

Controls

Drag a card — grab the top card from any stack (or from the shelf).

Drop it on the matching category slot — e.g. a dog card goes on the Animals goal.

Wrong category? The card is rejected and snaps back.

Use the shelf — drag a top card to an empty shelf slot to reach the card underneath in that stack.

Empty grid cells — you can also place a card on a blank grid cell as a holding spot.
