Marble Sort (Fan Game)

This is an unofficial fan game inspired by the marble-sorting games seen in mobile ads. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the makers of those games.

An endless marble-sorting game. Three pipes each hold 100 boxes of glossy marbles. Tap a pipe and its box pours out 9 marbles, which roll down a funnel onto a conveyor belt looping above four columns of colored trays. A marble that rides over a tray of its own color drops in; 3 marbles fill a tray and clear it. If the belt fills up with marbles no open tray can take, the conveyor jams and the run ends.

How to Play

1. Press PLAY on the title screen.
2. Tap a pipe (the pipe or the box under it) — on a keyboard, A / S / D tap the left / middle / right pipe. The box pours its 9 marbles; the next box then slides out. Each pipe shows how many boxes it has left.
3. Marbles roll down the funnel and hop onto the belt, which runs counter-clockwise.
4. A marble passing over a column whose top tray matches its color drops into it. 3 marbles clear the tray and the column slides up.
5. Score = trays cleared. Choose pipes carefully — unwanted colors just circle the belt and take up space.
6. CONVEYOR JAM: the belt is full (30 marbles) and none match any open tray for 3 seconds.
7. ALL CLEAR: use all 300 boxes and clear all 900 trays.
8. On the result screen, PLAY AGAIN restarts and HOME returns to the title.

Features

• Every marble has a home: each box's 9 marbles exactly fill 3 trays of the same color somewhere in the columns.
• Color progression: starts with 3 colors (pink, blue, yellow) and adds more as boxes are made — green (24), purple (54), orange (90), cyan (130), white (175), red + brown (205), then lime, charcoal, magenta and teal together (230), for 14 colors. Only four trays are open at a time, so every new color makes it harder.
• Living belt: 30 tightly packed slots. The lead marble moves at base speed, marbles behind catch up a little faster and then ride along as a train, closing gaps when a marble drops into a tray.
• Marble physics: marbles pour in a quick tumble, roll down the funnel slopes and settle into the opening without jitter.
• Title screen: a self-playing demo runs behind the big MARBLE SORT logo (marked FAN GAME) and PLAY button.
• Result screen: CONVEYOR JAM or ALL CLEAR!, a big emoji (😵 / 🎉 new best / 🏆), trays cleared counting up, and the best score. ALL CLEAR adds confetti, a spinning trophy with gold rays and a fanfare.
• Sound: cheerful little sound effects for pouring, sorting and clearing.
