Merge Fish

Para Listicle: If you want a game that has you tapping away with simple mechanics combined with some strategic depth, Merge Fish may just have you hooked. In this brainteaser you slide fish of different colors and numbers around a board in an effort to merge three or more of the same type and evolve your ocean army. It’s like 2048 and similar games, where every combo move you make can be a setup for success or a waiting list to flirt with space. The appeal of Merge Fish is in its simplicity and its ramping difficulty. Initially, the gameplay is quite simple, but as one progresses, the complexity of the game, the strategizing, the multi-faceted representations becomes reminiscent of a 2048 type game; only more to explore and stay forward-thinking. Players are lauding the game as a new spin on the genre, though some say the experience leaves them less than 'reel' with deep excitement.

Scores seem to be a big deal here on Play123, and Merge Fish has you saving your high scores to compete against yourself. If you want to kill time or really test your puzzle-solving skills, this is a delightful catch. # #
