Daily Sort #56 on a desktop: eight numbered glass tubes of blue, purple, yellow, orange, green and red balls, with pours, hearts and combo counters above

Daily Sort is the daily mode of SortStreak, a free ball sort game in the browser with one numbered board a day for every player. You pour coloured balls from tube to tube until every tube holds a single colour, with free undo and three hearts that a restart costs. Beside the daily there are 100 campaign levels, harder Arcade boards and a Chinese-language travel mode.

About Daily Sort

Daily Sort is the daily mode of SortStreak, at sortstreak.com. It takes the ball sort puzzle known from phone games and gives it one board a day, the same everywhere in the world and numbered like Wordle. It plays in the browser, free and without an account, and keeps your streak and progress in your browser, with a text backup you can paste into another device.

The rules are the familiar ones. Tap a tube and then another to pour its top ball across; a ball may only go onto the same colour or into an empty tube. The board is solved when each tube holds only one colour. Undo is free, a restart costs one of your three hearts, and the game counts your pours and combos as you go. On 18 October 2026 the board was Daily Sort #56: eight numbered tubes in two rows, with six colours spread across them.

When you finish, the game gives you stars and a share card with your number and rating, so you can post your result without spoiling the day's board. The puzzle changes at midnight UTC.

The site has grown around the daily. Classic is a campaign of 100 levels in chapters with three stars to earn on each. Arcade adds harder boards in Standard with five colours and Expert with six; they give no stars and do not touch the daily streak. Rainbow Journey is a travel mode written in Chinese, where each stop, starting in Chengdu with a panda, is a set of small sorting tasks.

It suits anyone who likes the calm of ball sort phone games but wants one shared board a day without ads.

Tips

Use the empty tube as a buffer and try to keep it free for the colour you need next.
Plan a few pours ahead before moving: undo is free, but a stuck board costs a heart to restart.
Finish one colour completely before starting on the next, so its tube stops getting in the way.
Try the Arcade boards for practice; they do not affect your streak.
