About

Number Merge

Features
Read full description

Place numbered tiles onto the grid. When two identical numbers touch, they merge into one—and the number increases. A 1 and a 1 become a 2. Two 2s become a 3. One merge can trigger another, creating satisfying chain reactions. The goal? Keep merging until you surpass 14. But with strategy, you can go much further. Stuck? Three power-ups can turn the tide: Bomb removes troublesome tiles. Copy duplicates any number—turn a 13 into two 13s, then merge for an instant 14. Refresh reshuffles your options. No time limits. Play at your own pace. Unlock multiple visual themes. Challenge friends to see who can reach the highest number. Simple to learn. Hard to master. Every move counts. How far can you go?
