Sort of Magic Beginner Guide
Follow the core sorting loop to identify items, return them to the correct locations, and help restore the magic school.
Sort of Magic is a cooperative organization game built around exploring rooms, recognizing magical objects, and putting everything where it belongs. Players can work alone or coordinate with others while progressing through the school restoration process.
Explore the room
Enter the current area and inspect shelves, surfaces, containers, and other places where misplaced objects may appear.
- Look through the entire room before deciding that an item is missing.
- Use the room layout to divide areas between players in multiplayer.
Identify each item
Recognize whether an object is a book, potion, magical material, broom, wand, or another type of school item.
- Group similar objects mentally before carrying them away.
- Use available spell abilities when an item is difficult to recognize or locate.
Assign the correct destination
Match each object with the room, shelf, storage area, or other designated location intended for that item.
- Check nearby storage and shelving for visual clues.
- Keep temporary piles organized so items are not mixed between destinations.
Complete the restoration task
Return all required objects to their proper places and continue the school restoration progression.
- Recheck corners, shelves, and secondary surfaces before leaving.
- In multiplayer, communicate which areas have already been completed.

Sort of Magic Room Guide
Use the room guide to track sorting objectives, identify common item groups, and follow the restoration progression through the school.

- Identify the areas that require inspection.
- Note shelves, containers, and other likely item destinations.
- Use the room as the basic unit for tracking completion.

Search the main item categories to quickly identify where objects appear and where they should be returned.

| Item Type | Appearance Area | Return Location | Search Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Books | Explorable school rooms and study-related areas | Designated bookshelves or book storage | Check shelves, tables, and nearby surfaces for misplaced volumes. |
| Potions | Explorable school rooms and potion-related areas | Designated potion storage or preparation area | Inspect work surfaces, containers, and areas near other potion objects. |
| Magical Materials | Explorable school rooms and material-storage areas | Designated storage location for magical materials | Group similar materials before checking the room's storage points. |
| Brooms | Explorable school rooms and equipment areas | Designated broom or equipment storage | Look along room edges and in larger storage spaces. |
| Wands | Explorable school rooms and magical equipment areas | Designated wand storage or equipment display | Check small surfaces and storage areas where narrow objects may be easy to overlook. |
Sort of Magic Co-op Guide
Use clear room assignments, shared sorting rules, and task rotation to reduce repeated work during online co-op sessions.
Sort of Magic is designed around cooperative organization. Before starting a session, agree on who manages each area, how items should be grouped, and when players should regroup to avoid duplicated actions.
Assign areas before starting
Divide the available rooms or work areas between players before the session begins. Each player should take responsibility for a defined section instead of repeatedly checking the same locations.
- Use one player per room or work zone when possible.
- Keep a shared route so players know which areas have already been handled.
- Change assignments when a room becomes crowded or requires a different type of task.
Create a shared sorting system
Agree on item categories and storage locations before collecting large numbers of objects. Consistent placement makes it easier for every player to find materials and identify unfinished work.
- Group similar items together.
- Reserve clearly defined spaces for items that still need to be processed.
- Avoid moving an item multiple times unless the team has changed its sorting rule.
Rotate repetitive responsibilities
Split repeated tasks between players rather than assigning all cleanup, movement, or organization work to one person. Rotate duties when the team changes rooms or reaches a new stage of the session.
- One player can collect while another organizes.
- Use short verbal callouts when an area is complete.
- Regroup before starting a major rearrangement so everyone follows the same plan.
