How to play Drop & Merge
Drop numbered blocks into the five columns. When a block lands next to blocks with the same number (left, right, above or below), they merge into one bigger block: two 8s make 16, and if three 8s meet at once they jump straight to 32. Blocks then fall to fill the gaps, which can set off chain merges worth bonus points.
Controls
- Mouse / touch: tap or click a column to drop the block there.
- Keyboard: ← → choose a column, ↓ / Space drops, or press 1–5 to drop straight into a column. P pauses.
Scoring
Every merge scores the value of the new block, multiplied by the chain step. The Next preview shows the block after the current one, so plan two moves ahead.
Game over
The game ends when every column is full and the current block cannot merge with any top block. Your game is saved automatically, so you can come back later.
Tips
Keep big numbers at the bottom and in one corner, and build "staircases" so each merge feeds the next.
