How to play

  • Drag a toy to a free spot on another shelf, or tap the toy and then tap the shelf.
  • Three of a kind on one shelf pop, and the toys behind slide forward.
  • Pop a triple of what the customer asks for and it goes straight into their arms.
  • Clear every shelf to win. Serve every customer for more stars. Kids Mode (tap the turtle) has no move limit.

Controls

  • Phone or tablet: Drag a toy onto a shelf, or tap a toy and tap a shelf.
  • Keyboard: ← β†’ ↑ ↓ to choose, Space to lift and drop, Z undo, H hint, T extra shelf, Esc pause.
  • Mouse: Drag a toy onto a shelf, or click a toy and click a shelf.
  • Gamepad: D-pad to choose, A to lift and drop, B to undo.

Tips

  • Look at the bubble first: serving the customers in order is how you earn the second star.
  • Popping the triple for a customer far back in the queue too early can leave them nothing to take home.
  • Toys in grey behind a shelf are what slides forward next. Plan your triples with them in mind.
  • A clear without undo earns the third star. The extra shelf button holds a spare shelf when you are stuck.

About this game

Welcome to the toy shop! The counter is busy and the critters are waiting.

Every shelf holds toys: rubber ducks, robots, balls, little cars, drums, teddies, rockets and more. Drag a toy to a free spot on another shelf. Put three of a kind together on one shelf and they pop with a happy chime, and the toys waiting behind them slide forward to take their place.

Now look at the counter. A bunny, a bear, a fox or an owl is waiting there with a speech bubble that shows the toy it wants. Pop a triple of exactly that toy and all three hop off the shelf and fly into the critter's arms. It squeaks one, cheers, waves and walks out with a smile, and the next customer steps up. Other triples still pop and clear space, so you decide what to do first.

Clear every shelf to close up shop. Serve every customer for two stars, and skip undo for three.

The shop grows as you play. The first five levels are short lessons, one new idea each, with a little hand that shows the way. Then come 95 more levels, up to a dozen shelves, fourteen different toys and shelves that are three layers deep. Every tenth level is a busy day with a long queue. Every toy you hand over goes on your Toy shelf, so you can see which toys the critters have taken home and which ones are still to come. In the normal mode a Moves counter at the top counts down, so plan before you drag. Stuck? Undo, ask for a hint, or use the extra shelf you earn every third level.

Kids Mode (tap the turtle) takes the move limit away for good: nothing can run out, undo never costs anything and a little hand shows the next move after a few seconds.

Play with a finger on a phone or tablet, the mouse, the keyboard or a gamepad. Free in your browser, with nothing to install.
