## What is ManekiPepe Game?

Welcome to ManekiPepe Game! Experience a highly addictive physics-based drop & merge puzzle with a unique cultural twist.

AN EPIC EVOLUTIONARY JOURNEY
Drop cute Chinese Zodiac animals into the box and match two of the same kind to evolve them! But there's a catch: your animals are climbing the ancient Japanese social hierarchy -from Merchants and Artisans, up to Farmers, and finally the noble Samurai (Shi-nō-kō-shō). Only the best players can merge their way to the absolute peak: the legendary, fortune-bringing "ManekiPepe"!

HOW TO PLAY
• Tap to drop a character into the play area.
• Merge two identical characters to create a bigger, higher-ranked one.
• Watch out for the physics! They bounce, roll, and stack.
• Don't let them spill over the top boundary, or it's Game Over!

POWERFUL ITEMS TO SAVE YOUR GAME
• DELETE: Precisely remove a small, annoying character blocking your way (Note: Huge characters like the Horse, Dog, and Pepe are too big to delete!).
• SHAKE: Use the magic drum to shake the entire board and fix bad placements.

COMPETE & SYNC
• Game Center Leaderboards: Compete for the highest score against players worldwide.
• iCloud Save: Your high scores, extra lives, and items are safely synced across your Apple devices!

Drop, merge, and bring good fortune to your screen today!
