A drag-and-drop recycling game
Sort Trash is a 60-second drag-and-drop game. One item appears in the middle of the screen. The player drags it into one of three bins, compost, recycle or landfill, before the clock or their three lives run out.
Every correct sort scores points, and a run of correct sorts adds a streak bonus. A wrong bin costs a life and the game shows the right answer, so people pick something up even when they miss. Rounds are short, so a line of visitors can all take a turn.
It plays in a portrait window in any phone or desktop browser. We reskin it with your logo, colors, tagline and item art. The results screen tracks a personal best, which gives players a reason to go again.
Why Sort Trash works at events
The game is simple to start, and it gets harder as the player gets better. That keeps beginners and repeat players both in the game.
Difficulty ramps up on its own
The first 15 seconds use easy items only. Medium items join at 15 seconds and tricky ones at 35, so the game keeps pace with the player.
Players learn as they play
Miss a bin and the right one lights up, with a message naming the correct answer. The results screen ends with a "Did you know?" tip.
Quick rounds keep lines moving
A run ends at 60 seconds or after three wrong bins, whichever comes first. Streak bonuses and a personal best make people want another go.
How to play Sort Trash
-
Drag the item
One item appears in the middle of the screen. Press and drag it with a finger or a mouse.
-
Drop it in the right bin
Pick compost, recycle or landfill. A correct drop scores points, and a wrong bin costs one of your three lives.
-
Beat the clock
Keep sorting for 60 seconds. When time or lives run out, you see your score, accuracy and best streak.
Dropped an item outside the bins? No penalty. It springs back to the middle.
