DROP. MERGE. SUPERNOVA! Cosmic Drop is the adorable one-finger merge game where little planets become big ones. Drop cute planets into your cosmic jar. When two of the same kind touch, they fuse into the next, bigger planet. Pebbles become Moons, Moons become Mercury... all the way up to the mighty Sun. Forge the Sun and the whole jar goes SUPERNOVA. You win the level! EASY TO PLAY, HARD TO PUT DOWN One finger is all it takes: slide to aim, release to drop. Chain merges together for combo bonuses and watch satisfying cascades ripple through the jar. 100 LEVELS. 10 SECRET CONSTELLATIONS. Every victory lights a new star and connects it into your current constellation. Complete all ten stars to reveal the next chart. The Stellar Atlas tracks your journey, hides undiscovered constellation names, and lets you replay any unlocked level. EVERY LEVEL TRANSFORMS THE COSMOS Journey through living water worlds, lava skies, frozen space, cosmic forests, crystal fields, raging storms, and the molten Solar Forge. Each constellation has its own gameplay rule, from shifting tides and warned wind gusts to temporary roots, crystal score bonuses, and solar pressure. Every rule is clearly explained, and every level has its own background and atmosphere. YOUR PRIVATE DAILY GALAXY Take on one seeded challenge each day with a special rule, exact planet queue, local best, streak, and one-time reward. Daily Galaxy has no accounts, rankings, friends, chat, or network connection. Progress stays on your device. ACHIEVEMENTS AND COSMIC COLLECTION Complete 23 goals to unlock 23 visual rewards, then collect 27 styles in all, including four starter cosmetics. Equip drop trails, jar glows, merge bursts, and profile badges that show off your journey without changing score or physics. POWER-UPS WITH REAL STRATEGY - Fusion Orbs: Pick any two planets and fuse them into something bigger - Cosmic Storms: Unleash a galaxy vortex that merges every small planet at once - Continue Stars: Rescue a doomed run and get a second wind THEMES THAT TRANSFORM EVERYTHING Merge planets in deep space, candy in a sweetshop, sea creatures in the abyss, or neon orbs in a synthwave dream. Candy Pop, Deep Ocean, and Neon Nights are optional in-app purchases. The Premium Bundle includes them plus the exclusive gilded Solar Gold theme. MADE WITH LOVE - Every planet has a face, and they are all adorable - Silky physics, juicy haptics, and handcrafted sound - Your game saves automatically, so you can pick up right where you left off - Reduce Motion support and clearly labeled gameplay rules - No ads or account. Core play and Daily Galaxy work offline. Purchases and restores use the App Store. Download free and start merging. Your first Sun is closer than you think!

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HACKRIS at none against Cosmic Drop's 9. HACKRIS also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
