Hue Sort — Drag Colors Into Order

Hue Sort is a free color-sorting puzzle played right in your browser. The game scrambles a set of color tiles and challenges you to drag them back into a perfect hue gradient. It is calm, tactile, and quietly addictive.

What Hue Sort Is

Hue Sort is a drag-and-drop puzzle about order. You are given a row or grid of mixed-up color tiles, with anchor tiles fixed at the ends. Your job is to slide every other tile into its rightful place so the colors flow smoothly from one anchor to the next.

How to Play

Grab a tile and drop it where you think it belongs in the gradient. Work outward from the anchors, comparing each tile against its neighbors. When you finish, the game checks how many tiles landed in the correct spot and gives you a score — aim for a flawless sort.

Why It's Fun

Hue Sort hits a sweet spot between relaxing and challenging. The slow drag-and-drop pace makes it soothing to play, while the goal of a perfect gradient keeps every grid worth solving. Finishing a clean sort is genuinely satisfying.

Plays Anywhere

Hue Sort runs in any modern browser on desktop, tablet, or phone. The tiles are built for touch, so dragging works just as well on a phone as with a mouse. No download, no sign-up, no paywall — just open the page and start sorting.
