About

Merge Gears

Features
Read full description

Merge Gears is a clever and satisfying puzzle game where strategy and chain reactions are the key to success! Place uniquely shaped gear pieces on the grid, match 3 or more of the same type, and merge them into higher-level gears. Bigger merges create multiple upgraded gears, sparking powerful chain reactions that can fill the board in a flash! But it’s not just about matching—each level challenges you to connect a moving engine to one or more targets with high value requirements. Every turn the engine moves, it powers through connected gears and reduces the target’s value. Build smart paths, optimize your merges, and drain the requirements to zero! Key Features: Addictive gear-merging gameplay Strategic placement with satisfying combos Challenging objectives with engine-to-target mechanics Beautifully designed gears and animations Endless ways to trigger huge chain reactions!
