FLIP

Level 03 · Burnt. Every bar has a marked face and a flip turns it over, so a pair running downhill is a step only when both marks are up.

  1. 01Tap any bar. It and everything above it turns over as one block, and every bar in that block lands on its other face.
  2. 02Sorted means the widths climb to the plate and every marked face has ended up down.
  3. 03The top bar on its own is a move now. Here it is the only tap that lowers BREAKS.

Tap a bar to turn it over, the top bar included

about this game

FLIP, Sort the stack. Only from the top.

A stack of bars of different widths, jumbled. Tap a bar and everything from the top down to it turns over as one block, so a prefix of the stack reverses. Sort it into a staircase, widest at the bottom. Underneath it is one count: the joins that are not a step of exactly one. A flip changes exactly one join, the one the spatula went in at, so that count is the fewest flips that can possibly work and you can read it off the board before you touch anything.

how to play
  1. 01Tap any bar. It and everything above it turns over as one block.
  2. 02Sort the stack into a staircase, widest at the bottom, resting on the plate.
  3. 03BREAKS counts the joins that are not a step of one. It can only fall by one per flip.
levels
  1. Level 01 · Eight Joinspar 8

    Every join is broken, so the count says eight flips and eight is achievable. Only one of the seven taps keeps it.

  2. Level 02 · Costpar 8

    Not one of the seven taps lowers the count, so the floor of seven cannot be met and the board costs eight.

  3. Level 03 · Burntpar 8

    Every bar has a marked face and a flip turns it over, so a pair running downhill is a step only when both marks are up.
