Gecko Out is a puzzle game from Rollic Games. Each level places geckos of different colors and lengths on a board, and your job is to get every one into the hole of the same color before the clock runs out. The listing describes it for casual players as well as people who already enjoy puzzles.
The game shows 4.34 stars from 126,866 ratings on Google Play, and the listing reports more than 5,000,000 installs. It is rated for ages 3 and up.

You control a gecko by dragging it from one of its ends. Moving it pulls the body through the path, so the paths can be twisty and cross each other. The listing says the paths are intricate, and the order you move things in matters for getting every gecko to its hole.
The controls are kept simple. The listing presents this as easy to start with while leaving room for planned strategies in harder levels.
Geckos differ in both color and length, so a level asks you to match each one with the hole of its color. Length changes how much space a gecko takes up on the paths and how it fits through them. A level is complete once every gecko is in its matching hole.
Matching is the core of each puzzle. Getting one gecko into the wrong hole can block the path for the others.
Every level has a countdown, and you win by finishing before it reaches zero. The listing mentions a near-miss, where you finish just before the time expires, as part of the appeal of the timer.
The time limit turns each level from a pure logic puzzle into a race, so the clock shapes how quickly you need to plan your moves.
The game offers a range of puzzles, and the listing says each one is more challenging than the last. The later levels add more geckos and more complicated paths to work through.
Because the controls stay the same across the set, the difficulty comes from the layouts and the time pressure rather than from learning new inputs.
