Mélangeons! That’s “get mixin’” in French. Mélange is all about mixing colors! Get comfy: you might be playing for a while! Mélange’s gameplay takes place in a grid with colored circles having one of seven colors: red, blue, yellow, orange, purple, green, or black. Your job is to move the dots around and combine them carefully so that each space on the grid has the correct color. Sounds easy? Get ready for hours of puzzling patterns with the classic 3x3 grid, the tough 4x4 grid, and the challenging 5x5 grid with over 345 levels to choose from. And the best part: no ads. Ever. Free content: 180 levels ------------------------------------ 3x3 - 50 levels The classic Mélange gameplay, the 3x3 boards will get you going on your feet and playing the game. But don’t be fooled: some of them are trickier than they seem. 4x4 - 50 levels With more breathing room, dots can more farther than their 3x3 counterparts. These levels are for good players and qualified amateurs and are fun for everyone. 5x5 - 50 levels Add another layer onto the grid and things get interesting. Expert blending skills and intuition is required (with a hint or two sometimes). Pro - 30 Levels This pack is the most exhilarating. These levels are made with the expert player in mind. Good luck with these ones… Premium content: $0.99 for 165 additional levels ------------------------ Rails - 50 levels The Rails pack allows dots to travel farther and faster than ever before. Hop on a rail to the other side of the map and it can get hard to keep track of everything that is going on (pun intended). Mosaic - 50 levels Mosaic levels are the most aesthetic. Built with patterns in mind, levels in this pack give the game elegance. But looks can be deceiving; mosaic levels can prove to be quite tricky. Blck - 50 levels Why not add another color? Black dots eat everything in their path; nothing escapes. Their unique ability adds additional problems. Who goes? Who stays? Demon - 15 levels Demon levels are born to be challenging. Only 15 levels? Easy right? Wrong. These levels are formidable foes, striking fear into every Mélange-goer. You may begin to ask if these levels are even possible…

Verdict
