Spot the Hustle

Don’t get Hustled!

The classic street-corner shell game, reimagined for your phone. Watch the peas hide, follow the shuffle, and tap the match — if you can keep up.

Download on theApp Store Coming soon toGoogle Play

What you’re in for

Three ways to sweat

Easy warms you up with 7 shells. Medium bumps to 9. Hard throws 12 shells and rapid-fire swaps at true masters.

It only gets trickier

Shuffles speed up, boards grow, and shells keep swapping mid-round. An odd unpaired shell keeps you honest.

Made to be replayed

Streak bonuses for consecutive matches, a level ladder that climbs with you, and Game Center leaderboards for bragging rights.

No catch

No ads. No in-app purchases. No tracking, no accounts. Just pure, classic hustle.

How to play

  1. Watch the colored peas get tucked under the shells.
  2. Keep your eyes locked as they shuffle and swap.
  3. Tap a shell to reveal what’s underneath.
  4. Match the pairs — and mind the odd shell out.

What’s new — v2.1.0

Fixed a bug where a matched pair could occasionally fail to register — a match you made would sometimes not count. That's resolved.

Also in this update:

  • Reworked difficulty and progression: boards grow and the shells shuffle faster as you climb.
  • Added a LAST CHANCE warning when you're down to your final heart.
  • Faster reveals, plus stability and polish throughout.

I am soooo fake pre-loading this image so the navigation doesn't skip while loading the over state.  I know I could use the sliding doors technique to avoid this fate, but I am too lazy.
