Never Sort by Color: Crashes Every Time (Workarounds)
Short answer
Suggested fix (unconfirmed): Update the game to the latest build to fix the infinite loop bug. Alternatively, check your drivers and verify corrupted Windows files.
How to fix it
- Update the game to the newest available build. A known bug involving held piece rotation caused an infinite processing loop and high processor usage upon launch, which has been resolved in newer updates.
- Verify your operating system files for corruption and run a system check to repair damaged files that might interfere with launching the game.
- Check and update your graphics card drivers to the latest version.
If it still doesn't work
- Verify that you are running the most recent version of the game after updating.
- Run the game on an alternative operating system such as Linux, where players have reported it working properly.
What players reported
I have an NVIDIA 4080, and Task Manager says my CPU is at 98% - 100% as soon as I launch the game, and it crashes when I try to start playing. It did this 7 times in a row before I gave up. The game looks fun but seems poorly optimized.
What players suggest
Maybe check ur drivers or even some windows error, try to run a test check on corrupted windows files, trust me it give some problems with my pc and after that it worked well and better.
There was a bug with the rotation of a held piece in hand causing an infinite loop. That's been fixed in the latest builds. Is it still happening for you?
Yes, the issue is gone. Thanks. It is a nice game! :-) Works perfectly on Linux too
