Box of Sox is a fast paced matching game.
You opened the dryer door and socks of every color and style are flying on the floor of the laundromat. Act quickly to make matched pairs before you are buried in laundry and lose the game! Match pairs fast enough, and you'll score points and challenge more difficult levels.

Lively, professional illustrations with socks of every style:
- wild stripes that would make a certain Dr. Seuss character proud - athletic socks, from modern ankle socks to the 70's knee high stripes - holiday themes, from Halloween Jack O' Lantern to Valentine's Day hearts - blue, brown and grey dress socks for the professionals - argyle in navy, orange, and purple for the Scottish golfers - military issue camouflage for those serving in the armed services or hunting in the woods
Each level gives you five socks in the Challenge Row. You'll need to find a matched pair for each of these five socks to move on to the next level. Way more fun than doing the laundry, and we've already washed all the sox, er, socks, for you!
You'll also need to quickly match other pairs to keep the floor from filling with socks. Don't forget about the Challenge Row, but keep the floor clean! When the floor is full, you've been buried in laundry, and the game is over.
Fun for everyone, from serious puzzle players that were the kings and queens of the arcade to grandparents that just want to know what an iPod is and why you keep playing with your portable phone. We recommend ages 3 and up unless your two year old is smarter than you were at that age.
Features GameBreak by reallyMedia, so if you get a call during Box of Sox or are otherwise interrupted, you'll be able to continue your game from the last completed level you played with the score you had at that time.
You'll love Box of Sox if you enjoy games like Mahjong, Tetris, Dr. Mario, Concentration, Memory, or the counter top touchscreen games found at many bars, including 11 Ball, 1 on 1, Color Drops, Fortune Taipei, Free Cell, Matching Pairs, Mine Sweeper, Shanghai Solitaire, Treasure Hunt, or Word Dojo.

I haven't been this excited to share a game sine Super Mario Brothers and Tetris!   I had a table of grown ups waiting their turn at a work dinner. Everyone wanted to play over and over. What a simple and fun game! My hats off to the developers.

great game... but   made it to level 10... over 300k points ... touch screen not sensitive enough to keep up with how fast you need to move to keep up with the game speed

Great App Store Discovery   Great game! Highly addictive! Only flaw, and my reason for four out of five stars... Touch control is not sensitive enough. Sometimes have to tap matches 3x to get response. Fix this and it is definitely a 5 star game!
****update***
dropping this to 3 stars for the sole fact. That it is annoying having to start from the very beginnig once you lose. Should be able to start from the last successful level

Great, but could use a couple of things   As others have said, this game is lots if fun; but it has a couple of things that could stand improvement.
It would be really nice if you didn't have to start at level one every time you fail a level. Especially since there is a strong element of chance involved. (Sometimes the socks are right there, other times you get several rows on the screen without a match.) Perhaps a "life" earned for so many score points?
As it stands, the score is meaningless. At least, no matter what score I get, and I've cleared six levels, when I fail I'm advised to move back in with my mother. There should be a different message, or a list of high scores, or some kind of "reward" for a good score.
Or perhaps I'm missing an option somewhere.

I wish laundry was this fun!   Fast moving and fun. This is great to play when you have just a few minutes for something quick. I wish you could start at different levels though!

  Maybe in your next update change this game and not make you always drop back to level one. Fun game but that aspect is tedious.

Pure, simple fun   A fun game that is beautiful in its simplicity. I would like it still more if you didn't have to go all the way back to level one after failing any level. Either give option to start over or start at last level attempted or be able to save progress.

Cute, fun game   Addicting. I just wish I didn't have to start at the first level every time. Almost makes it not worth playing. Fix that and the game is 5 stars.

Cool game but...   I do love this game, however it is so frustrating when you beat your own best score, then start ALL over again.
Please update soon! Thanks!

High score board?   I bought this game because I thought it would be fun for my husband; he likes playing games over and over to beat his high scores on the local score board. This game only remembers your highest score and doesn't even let you enter a name to go with it. If I'd known that, I wouldn't have bought this.

Fun game   I do enjoy playing this, but have to agree that dropping back to level 1 makes this game less appealing for replay value. I really recommend that you have "free play" and be able to choose the starting level, maybe count levels achieved from that new point, or have a random level selection. I'm interested in some of the harder levels (have gotten to 13) but don't really want to have to keep matching the same socks until then. Overall, great gameplay and nice graphics, though!

Like it would love it but....   I always go back to this game I enjoy it's great deal. My frustration is that I always have to go back to level one, I would like to be able to save levels I have completed. I would also like a score board something like the top five. Great concept just needs a tune up!
