## What is Zen Island?

Place buildings. Watch them merge. Find your flow.

Zen Island is a cozy hex-grid merge puzzle set on a peaceful island. Tap to place buildings on a 19-tile hexagonal grid — when three or more matching buildings sit side by side, they merge into something grander. A humble sprout becomes a tree, a tree becomes a house, a house becomes a villa, and beyond that, wonders await.

There are no timers, no lives, no stress. Just you, the island, and the gentle satisfaction of a perfect merge cascade.

- Merge mechanics — connect 3+ same-level buildings to level them up; chain combos multiply your score
- Hex grid strategy — every placement matters when space is limited
- 5 unlockable themes — earn score to reveal new color palettes and dress your island your way
- Plays offline — no network required, ever

Whether you have two minutes or two hours, Zen Island is always ready to welcome you back.
