Safari Merge

About Safari Merge: Food-Chain Puzzle with 18 Creatures

Safari Merge is a bite-sized merge puzzle built around a real food chain. Grass sprouts onto the board, and the goal is to drag matching creatures together to combine them into the next animal up the chain — starting from simple grass and rabbits and climbing all the way to elephants and beyond. Every new tier unlocks a genuine fact about that animal's place in the natural world, so discovery and learning go hand in hand. Three difficulty settings let players choose their own pace, and gems earned during play can be spent to unlock backgrounds and board tile designs.

How to Play Safari Merge

The board fills up continuously as new creatures spawn in, so merging strategically to keep space open is the core challenge. When the board fills completely, the run ends — there is no fixed win condition, only the highest tier and score reachable before space runs out.

Drag two matching animals together to combine them into the next creature up the food chain. Chaining several higher-tier merges together in quick succession triggers a combo, multiplying the score and reward bonus. Each new tier reached reveals a real animal fact alongside the newly unlocked creature. With 18 creatures to discover across the chain, the push to see the next animal and its fact keeps every run going.

Controls

• Click and drag (mouse): Move an animal onto a matching one to merge them
