More about this game
Your goal is to sort a messy pile of scattered books onto their correct shelves before the clock runs out. Each book belongs to a specific genre with a matching color, like red for Mystery or blue for Science. Dragging a book to the right shelf earns points and builds a combo multiplier, but dropping it on the wrong shelf breaks your combo and subtracts 3 seconds. As you clear levels, the pile grows up to 24 books. A run ends when the timer hits zero.
Tips
- Build a combo of up to 5 by sorting books correctly in a row, which multiplies your base 10 points up to 50 points per book.
- Prioritize the rare golden books that appear starting at level 2, as sorting them correctly adds 5 seconds to your timer and 50 points.
- Finish the level as fast as possible, because you earn a time bonus of 5 points for every second remaining on the clock.
Questions
What happens if I put a book on the wrong shelf?
Dropping a book on the wrong shelf breaks your current combo and immediately subtracts 3 seconds from your remaining time. The book will bounce back to the floor.
What are the golden books?
Golden books are rare items that start appearing at level 2. Sorting them correctly gives you 50 bonus points and adds 5 seconds to the timer, helping you survive longer.
How is the level score calculated?
You earn points for each book based on your combo multiplier. When you clear the level, you also receive a time bonus of 5 points for every second left on the timer.
