## What is Mochi Drop?

Mochi Drop is a physics merge puzzle about soft, wobbly mochi.

Drop a mochi into the shop counter. When two of the same kind touch, they become the next one up. Blueberry becomes cherry, cherry becomes grape, and on it goes — eleven mochi in all, ending with the golden one almost nobody reaches.

HOW TO PLAY
- Drag to aim, let go to drop
- Two of a kind merge into the next size
- Don't let the pile cross the line

THREE ITEMS FOR WHEN IT GOES WRONG
- Bomb — clears everything around where it lands
- Sweep — removes every mochi of one kind
- Deflate — shrinks one mochi for a few seconds, so the piece above it can fall through

18 ACHIEVEMENTS THAT PAY IN ITEMS
Reach a new tier, break your own record, build a long chain. Every achievement hands you items — and you choose which ones, rather than being given whatever is left.

LEADERBOARDS
Weekly and all-time. The weekly board resets, so a bad run is never permanent.

ALSO
- Physics you can feel — every mochi squashes, sags and settles
- Art in the style of a Japanese sweet shop
- Three background tracks
- English, 日本語, 한국어, 中文
- Leave in the middle of a run and pick it up where you left it

Easy to start. Hard to put down.
