Storky Number Drop

Storky Number Drop is a number merge puzzle in which every number is a bag of water. Rather than letting tiles fall from above, you load a bag into Storky's rubber band, pull it back and let go, sending it into the pile. When two bags with the same number touch, they melt into a single bag carrying double the value, so 2 and 2 make 4, 4 and 4 make 8, and the doubling carries on from there.

Two details set it apart. First, you are not handed one piece at a time: a Pick one box offers three bags, and you choose which to fire. Second, the bags behave like liquid. The developer says they squash, stretch and flow into any gap, but never overlap one another. The developer sets no final number; the question posed is simply how big you can go.

Choose one of the three bags in the Pick one box by clicking or tapping it. Then press and hold the mouse, or touch the screen, drag backwards to stretch Storky's rubber band, and release to throw. If you change your mind mid-aim, drag the wrong way to cancel. Bags with equal numbers merge on contact into one bag worth double.

Use the choice of three: pick the bag whose number matches something already in the pile instead of whichever comes first. Because the bags squash and flow into gaps, check where everything has ended up before aiming the next one. There is a cancel gesture, so an aim that looks wrong does not have to be thrown.

A number merge puzzle with soft, liquid pieces, in a landscape frame, where values double on each merge. Controls are listed for desktop (click, hold, drag back, release) and mobile (tap, touch, drag back, release). You pick each bag from a choice of three.

Watermelon Stack 3D also has you aim and throw pieces rather than drop them, with fruit in a bowl, and Hexa Merge 2048 works up to 2048 with numbered tiles dropped by tap.
