About

Chain Drop

Features
Read full description

Chain Drop is a simple, satisfying number merge puzzle built for quick sessions and endless “one more try” moments. Place the current tile on the 4x4 board, plan ahead with the next tile, and merge three matching numbers to create a higher one. But be careful: if you go too many moves without a merge, danger rises and an extra tile drops onto the board. Every move matters. Build chains, escape tight boards, and keep pushing for a higher score. Features: • Easy to learn, hard to master • Fast 4x4 puzzle gameplay • Match 3 same numbers to merge upward • Current and Next tiles for strategic planning • Danger mechanic that adds pressure • Best score and highest tile tracking • Optional daily reminder • One more chance with rewarded revive Can you build the biggest chain before the board fills up?
