Merge Cooking® from Happibits Game is a quintessential entry in the popular merge genre, but with a delicious culinary twist. The core loop is instantly familiar and satisfying: you combine pairs of identical ingredients on a grid to create higher-level items, which are then used to fulfill customer orders and earn coins. It's a game that will appeal to casual gamers looking for a relaxing, puzzle-like experience, as well as those who enjoy the gradual progression and visual payoff of building complex recipes from simple beginnings. What initially caught my eye was its vibrant, clean art style in a sea of similar-looking games; the food items looked genuinely appetizing and the kitchen environments were bright and inviting, promising a cozy and engaging time.

My personal experience with Merge Cooking® was one of immediate, comfortable immersion. The controls are perfectly tuned for touchscreens—simple drag-and-drop mechanics that feel responsive and intuitive. The learning curve is gentle, introducing new recipe chains and kitchen upgrades at a steady pace that never feels overwhelming. A moment that truly stood out was the first time I merged my way up to a complex, multi-layered dessert. Seeing a humble bag of flour and some eggs gradually transform into a magnificent, tiered wedding cake was surprisingly rewarding and captured the game's core appeal perfectly. The performance was smooth, with no noticeable lag even when the board was crowded, which is crucial for maintaining the flow of this type of game.

Having played numerous merge games, from garden themes to fantasy realms, I kept returning to Merge Cooking® for its sheer polish and sense of tangible progression. While the fundamental mechanic isn't novel, Happibits Game has executed it with a finesse that many competitors lack. The game feels less about waiting for energy to refill and more about strategic board management and planning your next culinary creation. The progression system, where you earn stars to upgrade your kitchen and unlock new stations, provides a clear and motivating long-term goal. It doesn't rely on aggressive pay-to-win mechanics to gate progress, instead offering a balanced experience where skillful merging and patience are genuinely rewarded. For these reasons, I believe it stands as one of the more refined and consistently enjoyable titles in the casual merge genre.

Features

  • Ingredient Merging 🧩: The foundational mechanic where you drag and drop two identical low-level items, like a single tomato, to create a higher-level item, such as a bowl of tomato sauce, unlocking more complex recipes.
  • Order Fulfillment 🛎️: Customers appear at the top of the screen requesting specific dishes; you must merge the required ingredients on your main board to complete the order and earn coins and experience points.
  • Kitchen Upgrades 🔧: As you progress, you earn stars that can be spent to permanently upgrade your cooking stations, which increases your coin earnings and sometimes unlocks entirely new sets of recipes to master.

Pros

  • Satisfying Progression System 📈: I love how every action, from a simple merge to completing a big order, feeds into a clear progression path. Upgrading your kitchen and watching your humble stall transform into a gourmet restaurant is incredibly motivating.
  • Polished Visuals and Animations ✨: The game is just a joy to look at. The food items are detailed and colorful, and the merging animations are smooth and satisfying, making the core gameplay loop feel consistently rewarding.
  • Relaxing, Low-Pressure Gameplay 😌: This is my go-to game for unwinding. There are no timers forcing you to rush, allowing you to plan your merges strategically at your own pace, which creates a very chill and meditative experience.

Cons

  • Limited Board Space 🧱: The main gameplay grid can become cluttered quite quickly, especially when working on multiple complex orders. This sometimes forces you to make inefficient merges just to clear space, which can be frustrating.
  • Repetitive Music and Sounds 🔁: The background music and sound effects are pleasant at first but loop too frequently. After a few extended play sessions, the lack of audio variety can become a bit monotonous.
  • Generic Event Structure 🎪: The special in-game events don't feel distinct enough from the main gameplay. They often just offer a slightly different skin on the same mechanics, missing an opportunity to introduce truly unique challenges or rewards.
