Puppy Merge

Puppy Merge takes the merge formula and gives it a pile of soft, round dogs. Puppies drop into the arena on their own, and what you do is grab them and push identical ones together. When two matching puppies meet, they combine into a new, bigger puppy, and the climb up that size ladder is the heart of the game.

The arena is a box, and the box is the danger. If a puppy falls outside, the game ends. Because physics governs everything, a careless drag can send a pup bouncing over the edge, and bigger dogs take up more room and shove their neighbours around.

There is one forgiving rule worth knowing. If a puppy does start to fall, you can try to catch it and bring it back into the arena before it is lost. That small rescue mechanic gives you a second chance and makes the game feel more hands-on than merge games where pieces simply drop into place.

1. Watch puppies fall into the arena automatically.
2. Drag identical puppies together to merge them.
3. Keep building bigger puppies from each matching pair.
4. Catch any puppy that slips and pull it back inside the box.

Keep large puppies near the middle of the box. They push others around the most, and an edge is where a shove turns into a fall.
