Planet Merger
Read full descriptionHide full description
Drop a planet. Watch it fall, collide, and merge into something bigger. Planet Merger is a physics puzzle about building the solar system one collision at a time. When two identical planets touch, they merge into the next one up โ Pluto becomes Mercury, Mercury becomes the Moon, and on it goes. The board fills faster than you expect, the physics never quite behaves, and one well-placed drop can set off a chain reaction that clears half the screen. MERGE ALL THE WAY TO THE SUN Eleven worlds to discover, from tiny Pluto to the Sun itself. Every collision is driven by real physics, so no two games ever stack up the same way. Cross the line at the top and it's over โ so think about where each one lands. LEARN SOMETHING REAL Every planet you unlock opens a card of genuine astronomy: diameter, distance from the Sun, number of moons, day length, year length, surface temperature. Plus the details that stick with you โ like the fact that it rains diamonds on Neptune. 220 PLANET PUZZLES A separate quiz mode with 220 questions about the solar system, space exploration, and the science behind it all. Ten questions a round. ONE TAP TO PLAY Tap where you want the planet to fall. That's the entire control scheme. Easy to start in a spare minute, hard to stop when you're one merge away from a world you've never seen. PLAY IN YOUR LANGUAGE Fully translated into 9 languages, quiz questions included. Free to play. An optional one-time purchase removes ads permanently.
Falling Arrows
Read full descriptionHide full description
Falling Arrows is a color sort block puzzle with one twist no other arrow puzzle has: gravity. Every block carries an arrow. Tap it and it slides out that way, as long as its path is clear. Blocks left with nothing beneath them fall, the tower collapses into a new shape, and the board you were planning around is gone. One tap can free five blocks or bury the one you needed. Collect three blocks of a color to fill a tray, then a new color takes its place. Any block whose color has no open tray goes to the holding area and stays there, so a careless pull costs you space. Fill the holding area and the level is lost. No two boards look alike either. Towers are cut into letters, symbols and shapes you won't see coming, and each one closes off different exit routes. A block that slides free on one board is trapped on the next. HOW TO PLAY - Tap a block to slide it out along its arrow. - Its whole path must be clear, or it won't move. - Down arrows exit through the floor hatch at the bottom. - Blocks fall when their support is pulled away. - Clear every block from the board to win. FEATURES - 1,000+ levels with a difficulty curve that starts with a single color and builds from there - Hundreds of board shapes โ letters, symbols and towers you won't see coming โ each blocking different exit routes - Wide blocks that bridge gaps and hold stacks up - Unjam booster that turns stuck arrows so blocked blocks can get out - Free to play, playable offline - No internet needed, play anywhere If you like block puzzle, color sort and brain teaser games, Falling Arrows will feel familiar in the first ten seconds and completely different by level ten.

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Falling Arrows at none against Planet Merger's 1. On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
