Color Conveyor
Tap junctions on a candy-colored conveyor belt to flip each segment and route colored blocks to their matching bins before the line jams.
Each junction flips with one tap and toggles which way blocks turn; route every block to the right bin in a queue that keeps growing.
Tap junctions to flip belt direction.
Candy-factory conveyor belt with glossy primary-color blocks and matching bins.
Block Out!'s #1-chart success proves conveyor/puzzle hybrids have a hungry audience; the junction-tap twist is a fresh angle.
One-tap junction flip is clean and readable but rides a wave of established conveyor/sort puzzlers (Pixel Flow, Yarn Loop, Sand Loop) — no unique visual twist beyond candy palette.
Color-sort puzzle loops are comfortable but not inherently memeable; rarely produce the chaotic moment-based clips that drive TikTok virality, and no evidence of breakout shareable moments specific to this mechanic.Block Out! exists in same conveyor/sort family but no public virality metrics surfaced ↗Conveyor puzzles cited as fastest-growing but described as iteration-driven, not viral-phenomenon driven ↗
Single input (tap a junction) toggles a binary state — trivially teachable, no swipe/multi-touch, and easy to prototype and art-light to ship.
