Review summary

Pencil Stack Color Sort is a charming, relaxing color-sorting puzzle with a cute pencil-stack theme that’s easy to pick up and can be engaging for both quick sessions and long play, even at higher levels. However, reviews repeatedly complain about heavy advertising and monetization issues, including ad-free options that don’t fully remove ads and pricey perks. The game also suffers from uneven difficulty and occasional tile color mismatches. Despite these downsides, it remains a solid time-waster for fans of casual puzzles.

Pros

Relaxing, casual color-sorting gameplay.
Charming pencil-stack visuals/theme.
Easy to learn; suitable for quick or long play sessions.
Remains enjoyable even at higher levels.

Cons

Excessive ads; frequent ads after almost every level; reward ads persist even when you buy an ad-free version.
Monetization feels overpriced; ad-free options are expensive and don’t fully remove ads.
Inconsistent or challenging progression; no adjustable difficulty and early spikes in difficulty.
Minor bugs like color mismatches between tiles.

2026-03-07	No*****	The expensive $6-$10 "ad free" doesn't bother removing """reward""" ads. Because obviously, it's fiiiine for you to make ad revenue money off people after they PAY YOU. Y'know, actually, I've got a better idea: I uninstall your app and reward MYSELF with the money I saved by NOT SUPPORTING PREDATORY PRACTICES LIKE THIS! (I've gone through 50+ apps that think it's okay to treat people like this, so I'm kinda done being nice about it...)
