How to Play Merge Drop
Merge Drop is a physics merge game. Drop balls into the bin, and when two of the same size touch they merge into a bigger one. Chain merges for a high score — but don't let the pile cross the top line.
1. The rules
- Aim and drop a ball into the bin.
- Two balls of the same size that touch merge into the next size up — and score points.
- If the stack rises above the top line, it's game over. Keep it under control.
2. Best strategy
- Big balls stay at the bottom. Try to keep your largest balls low and merge smaller ones down onto them. Don't bury a big ball under small ones.
- Plan with the preview. Use the NEXT ball preview to think one or two drops ahead, not just the ball in your hand.
- Build to one side. Group same-size balls toward one edge so they merge, and keep the other side as breathing room for mistakes.
- Don't dump in the center. Random center drops pile up fast and block merges. Place with intention.
- Patience beats speed. Let a merge settle before the next drop — a chain reaction can clear a lot of space at once.
3. Daily & endless
Play the Daily for the same ball sequence as everyone and keep a streak, or go Free for an endless run. Leave mid-daily and come back — your run is paused and resumes right where you left off.
