Board. You start with the middle 5×6 of a 7×9 board. 🔒 cells unlock as you level up.
Generators. Tapping costs 1 energy and spawns a tile beside it. Tap the 1× chip in the top bar to switch to 2× — double energy per tap, but tiles start at tier 2. The AB generator makes mostly A's and some B's — merge two same-level generators to even the odds. Spawns are almost always tier 1.
Climbing the alphabet. Merge two identical tiles for the next tier (A1 + A1 → A2, up to 8). Two B8s become the CD generator — the main source of C and D tiles (big orders occasionally award a bonus tile from the next group). Two D8s → EF, two F8s → GH, two H8s → IJ, and two J8s → the Fountain ⛲ (free energy and XP). Two A8s rebuild an extra AB generator (plus an energy bonus); other recipe-less tier-8s (C, E, G, I) cash in for energy.
Orders. Deliver the requested tiles — green means a piece is on the board — for energy ⚡, coins , and XP. Leveling up unlocks more board.
Storage, scissors & trash. Stash tiles in the bottom panel (buy slots with coins). Drag a tile to ✂️ to split it into two of the tier below (10 , needs an open cell). Drag a tile to 🗑️ to scrap it for 95% of its value in energy and coins.
Merge Saloon 🤠 — a cozy letter-merging game.
I made this with Claude, and it's free for everyone. There's no server — all your game state is stored locally on your device.
My motivation: a calm place to meditatively merge without spending any real money. 💛
★ = recommended. Themes without a star are experimental — they may look rough or be confusing.
