About

GravityMerge

Features
Read full description

GravityMerge is a falling puzzle game where gravity changes every move. Drop cosmic dust and meteors from above, and collide matching celestial bodies to merge them. Build your way from cosmic dust through the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Saturn, Jupiter, the Sun, and a neutron star—then create a black hole. Gravity is the heart of the puzzle. Larger bodies have a wider, stronger pull, drawing nearby bodies into motion. Choose where and when to drop to set up chain reactions and keep the board under control. Matching bodies merge when they touch. Use attraction to close the gap, read the movement of the board, and release at the right moment to turn a near miss into a combo. Merges in quick succession increase your combo and multiply your score. Chase a high score, race for the fastest black-hole clear time, or set your own goal. Features • Gravity-driven celestial merging • Contact-based merges and chain combos • Score and clear-time records • Resume an interrupted mission • Share result cards and text • Optional premium purchase to remove ads Aim and release to drop. If celestial bodies remain above the danger line for too long, the mission ends. Enjoy simple controls with a strategic twist, and see how far gravity can take you.
