## What is NovaPop?

NovaPop is a drop-and-merge puzzle with real physics: drop celestial bodies, match two of a kind and watch them grow all the way into a Sun.

HOW TO PLAY
• Tap and drag to aim, release to drop.
• Two matching bodies merge into the next one in the chain: from a tiny Meteorite to the Sun — through the Moon, Mars, Earth, Saturn and Jupiter.
• Big bodies attract small ones with real gravity — use it to your advantage.
• Chain merges back-to-back to score COMBOS and multiply your points.
• Fuse two Suns to unleash a SUPERNOVA: clear the whole board and earn bonus points.

FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
Easy to learn in seconds, with cute smiley faces and bright colors, yet deep enough to keep you chasing a new high score run after run.

33 ACHIEVEMENTS
From your first merge to feats that take weeks: there is an achievement for every kind of player.

NO ADS
Play without ad interruptions — works offline, no wifi needed.

If you love the watermelon game, Suika-style merge puzzles or 2048 games, NovaPop takes the genre to space: a solar system physics puzzle where gravity is part of the strategy.

How far will your cosmic chain go?
