A circle. A swipe. Everything comes back. LOOB is a one-touch physics game where you push others out of your circle. The mechanic is simple. The mastery is not. At first you fight. Then you start to notice patterns. Then something shifts. The players who go the furthest aren't the ones who push hardest. They're the ones who learned to wait. How to play Swipe to push. Others eject on impact. Your force returns to you. Keep the circle clean. What makes LOOB different No levels. No timers. No instructions beyond the first touch. The game teaches itself through consequence. Best score: 36 Can you beat it?

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Merge Maestro at Free against LOOB's $0.99. Merge Maestro also leads on ratings volume (144 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). LOOB's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
