Train your brain with this very addictive game. Three board sizes, three game modes, and three graphic themes are available! Test your intelligence :) How to Play Swipe your finger to move the tiles. POWER OF TWO: when two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one. For example, 2 merges with 2 and becomes 4; 4 merges with 4 and becomes 8, etc. POWER OF THREE: when three consecutive tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one. For example, 3 merges with 3-3 and becomes 9; 9 merges with 9-9 and becomes 27, etc. FIBONACCI: a tile can be joined with a tile that is one level above or below it in the sequence, but not with an equal tile. In math, the Fibonacci sequence is a succession of numbers in which each number is obtained by adding together the last two digits that came before. The first terms are: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144. For example, 2 and 3 merge together and become 5; 5 and 3 merge together and become 8, etc.

Sort the potions. Fill the book. Potionary is a colour-sort puzzle with an alchemist's notebook behind it. Pour glowing liquid from flask to flask until each one holds a single colour — and every few puzzles, a new recipe appears in your Alchemy Journal. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Every level is proven solvable by a solver before you ever see it. No impossible boards, ever. • Forty hand-built opening levels that teach one idea at a time, then a measured difficulty curve for as long as you want to keep going. • An Alchemy Journal that turns the stars you earn into a collection worth finishing. MECHANICS THAT ARRIVE WHEN YOU ARE READY • Hidden potions that reveal themselves only at the top of a flask • Covered flasks that unlock as you finish others • Undo, Shuffle, Extra Flask and Hint — introduced one at a time MADE TO BE PLAYED ANYWHERE • Fully offline. No account, no login, no sign-up. • No lives and no energy timer. Being stuck is a puzzle to solve, not a wall to wait behind — Restart is always free. • Every bottle, star and drop of liquid is drawn in code — there is not a single image file in the game. Free to play, with optional ads and optional rewards.
