About the game

Fjord Bus Shuffle!

Fjord Bus Shuffle! is a cozy color-matching parking puzzle set in a snowy village by a Norwegian fjord. The bus depot is packed with red, blue, green, yellow and purple buses, and a long line of villagers in knitted hats is waiting at the stop, each one hoping to ride home on a bus of their own color. Your job is to clear the jammed lot, send the right buses to the stop at the right time and get every rider home before the bays fill up. There are 60 handmade-feeling levels, every one checked to be solvable, and the puzzles grow from gentle warm-ups into tricky HARD levels with hidden colors and snowy obstacles.

How to play

Every bus has an arrow that shows which way it drives. Tap a bus and it drives straight ahead along its arrow. If another bus, a spruce tree, a snowman or a log pile is in the way, it bumps and stays put. When the path is clear, the bus drives around the ring road and parks in the first free bay at the stop. Riders at the front of the queue board any parked bus that matches their color, and a full bus honks and drives away to free the bay. If every bay is taken and nobody in front of the queue can board, the stop is jammed and the level is lost. Grey buses with a question mark keep their color secret until the space in front of them is clear. Every tenth level is a HARD level. Clear a level without boosters to earn three stars.

Controls

  • Phone/tablet: Tap a bus to send it out of the lot. Tap the booster buttons at the bottom to use Undo, Hint, +Bay or Balloon.
  • Desktop: Click a bus to send it. Press Z to undo, M to mute and Esc or P to pause.
  • Use the level button to pick any unlocked level and the pause button to restart or take a break.

Tips

  1. Look at the first few riders in the queue before you tap anything. Send the buses they need first and keep the other colors waiting in the lot.
  2. Free the buses that block many others early, even if their color is not needed yet, but only when you still have a spare bay.
  3. Keep at least one bay empty whenever you can. A single free bay gives you room to fix a mistake.
  4. Undo takes back your last move, Hint shows a move that keeps the level solvable, +Bay opens an extra parking spot and Balloon lifts any bus straight out of the lot.
  5. Boosters are rewarded when you win, so it is fine to use one on a HARD level and come back later for three stars.
