Give students something to work toward! Merge Mania is a digital reward game for classrooms, individual learners, and families. Students earn drops by meeting goals, then combine matching items to discover new creations and earn stars toward rewards.
You decide what earns a drop—assignment checkpoints, personal goals, helpful choices, or chores.
How it works:
- Set a goal and award earned drops.
- Students place items on their board.
- Merge matching pairs to reveal the next item.
- Earn stars through successful merges.
- Celebrate reward milestones and keep discovering!
Features:
- Five themes: Candy Shop, Magic Garden, Space Adventure, Ocean Treasures, and Cozy Critters
- 15 mystery item levels in each theme
- Separate saved boards for classes, individuals, or families
- Adult PIN controls for awarding drops and redeeming rewards
- One star per merge by default, with optional higher-level bonuses
- Five reward milestones
- Mouse and touch controls, full-screen mode, and optional sound
- Export and import backups to protect or transfer boards
