New Steam Indie Game Turns Sorting Plastic Bricks Into the Ultimate Cozy Sim
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
An upcoming Steam indie game called Never Sort By Color lets players organize thousands of scattered plastic bricks and use them to build custom models, launching on November 10.
For anyone who grew up collecting building bricks, the sight of a massive, disorganized pile on the floor is both a nostalgic memory and an absolute nightmare. A new indie project called Never Sort By Color is leaning directly into that exact feeling. Developed by solo programmer Bryan Livingston and spotted by Game Rant, the upcoming Steam title is a first-person organization sim that asks players to clean up thousands of scattered plastic pieces. The twist is that you sort by size and type rather than color, turning a childhood chore into a surprisingly meditative gameplay loop.
While Steam has seen a recent wave of punishingly tedious sorting games that verge on the impossible, Never Sort By Color aims to keep things satisfying rather than punishing. The game includes helpful mechanics like Bucket Sort abilities and unlockable storage trays to streamline the process. More importantly, your hard work actually pays off. Buried instruction books let you build custom models designed by real creators, transforming your chaotic starting workspace into an organized digital museum filled with your own custom creations.
The project has already pulled in thousands of wishlists from brick enthusiasts eager for a release. It hits Steam on November 10, bringing a fresh angle to the cozy gaming space by trading farming and cafe management for the pure satisfaction of organizing a massive digital toy box. For a community that spends hours sorting real collections at home, this might just be the ultimate digital wind-down tool.
