Welcome to Linky Blocks! This is a matching game - match identical blocks by dragging your finger along the chain, in any direction. 2 blocks or more, then watch them pop! Linky Blocks squirm when pressed, drop, squish and bounce when popped. It's super tactile and satisfying. It's half game, half fidget toy! Tax yourself in the competitive modes, including the new Challenge mode filled with devious levels to clear, or play in Endless mode to just relax. Change theme to change the look and feel of the game and keep it fresh! Screenshots courtesy of the rather excellent Screenshots Pro - http://screenshots.pro
Arrow Merge
Read full descriptionHide full description
Arrow Merge fuses two beloved mechanics into one satisfying core: the "solve it in the right order" brain of arrow puzzles and the "two become one, level up" loop of merge games. Tap an arrow — it flies the way it points. If it hits a same-colour, same-level arrow on the way, it doesn't lose… it FUSES into a higher-level arrow! The goal is simple: merge and clear every arrow off the board. The real puzzle is figuring out which arrow to fire, and in what order, on a packed board. A wrong order jams the board — but no worries: unlimited undo, and every level is designed to be solvable. FEATURES • 30 hand-crafted, solver-verified levels — from gentle to packed • Collision = reward: arrow-puzzle + merge in a single mechanic • Forge Lv.2 → Lv.5 arrows and fill your collection • Frozen arrows, rainbow jokers and more • 1–3 stars: the fewer moves, the better • Completely FREE — no ads, no internet, no tracking, no purchases • One-hand portrait, zen flow — take all the time you want Calm but brain-bending. Download, fire your first arrow, and watch the chain!

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Arrow Merge at none against Linky Blocks's 5. Arrow Merge also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
