Launch polygons, merge them, and relax with Polymerger, the most satisfying shape-merge puzzle game. Toss shapes onto the board, merge polygons into larger ones, and see how far you can go! There’s no limit to the number of sides you can achieve—so keep merging and aim for the highest score! But be careful – don't let the polygons stack up too high! If a polygon touches the line for too long, you'll lose. Your game progress will be saved, so feel free to take a break and come back when you're ready to finish! NOTE: The saved game might become useless when updating/reinstalling the game. Make sure to finish your game before updating.
