ShortStack: Pancake Puzzle
Flip pancakes into a perfect stack. The classic pancake-sorting puzzle, made calm and juicy, in a cosy little café that grows as you play.
About ShortStack
Every order is a messy stack of pancakes. Flip until the stack is sorted, biggest at the bottom and smallest on top. Serve it in the fewest flips for three stars, then watch the syrup pour.
Soft sounds, gentle music and a stack that wobbles, steams and sparkles when it's served.
How to play
Slide the spatula under any pancake and flip it with everything above it. Sort the stack biggest to smallest in as few flips as you can.
