Magic Sort by Grand Games is a water sorting puzzle with a magical twist. Here’s an honest look at what the game gets right, what gets annoying, and whether it’s worth your time.

Magic Sort Review – A Chill Puzzle Game That Gets Surprisingly Tricky

Game: Magic Sort Developer: Grand Games A.S. Platform: iOS, Android Price: Free App Store Rating: 4.3 / 5 (560 ratings)


Magic Sort is one of those games you download thinking you’ll play for five minutes and end up on level 40 before you notice. It’s a color sorting puzzle where you pour colored water between bottles until each bottle holds only one color. That’s basically it. But the levels get hard enough that you’ll actually have to stop and think.

The magic theme is a nice touch. Instead of plain glass tubes, you’re working with potions and cauldrons. There’s a brewing mechanic where you collect ingredients to craft boosts. It gives you something to work toward outside of just clearing levels, which helps.

What Works

The controls are simple. Tap a bottle, tap where you want to pour. If the colors match and there’s room, the water moves. If not, nothing happens. No confusing gestures or menus to figure out.

The levels don’t time you, and there’s no move limit counting down on you. That alone makes this more relaxing than most puzzle games. You can sit and think without the game stressing you out.

The animations are smooth. Watching the water pour and mix actually looks good, and the sound effects are satisfying in that oddly calming way.

As you go deeper, the puzzles do get genuinely harder. You start needing to plan a few moves ahead, and sometimes a level will look easy until you realize you’ve painted yourself into a corner. Restarting is painless though, which is good.

What Gets Old

The ads show up a lot. If you’re playing free, expect to see them fairly often between levels. You can pay to remove them, but it’s worth knowing upfront.

When you get stuck and run out of options, the game offers to add an extra bottle for a fee. It feels like a Candy Crush thing. You can just restart for free, so it’s not a wall, but the prompt gets a bit repetitive.

Some players have noted that when you restart a level, it doesn’t always reload the exact same layout. That can feel random in a not great way when you’re trying a different strategy.

At later stages, the upgrade system for your magic boosts starts feeling grindy. Nothing that blocks you hard, but noticeable.

Should You Download It?

If you like color sorting games, yes. Magic Sort does the formula well and adds enough on top to keep it interesting longer than the average clone. The magic theme is charming without being over the top, and the gameplay is genuinely satisfying when a tough level clicks.
