How to Play Merge Salad

On the welcome screen, select the play button below the game’s title at the center to load the level selection screen. On the level selection screen, choose an unlocked level to begin. You automatically play a tutorial level when playing for the first time.

Select an ingredient, then drag and drop it around the grid to move it.

Basic Gameplay Advice

You begin with a grid that contains various salad ingredients. Move the ingredients around and form rows of 3 identical ones together to merge them. Once all the ingredients are merged, align them to form the salad. You only have 30 seconds to merge every ingredient onscreen. You will fail the level if you run out of time.

The game has 10 levels, each representing a different variety of salad. Levels are unlocked sequentially. The salads become more complex as you move through the levels.

Advanced Playing Tips & Strategy

We recommend arranging each ingredient in this manner. Place each ingredient in a column arrangement where two of each identical ingredient faces each other down with a gap in the middle. Place the last piece in the center space to merge them all toward the center. Once you’re done, this will create a neat line of ingredients, which will merge to form the salad once you lay down the last ingredient.

Educational Aspects

This game hones a player’s matching and visual logic skills. It also introduces younger players to the visually appeal of fresh salads.

Player Age Recommendations

This game is suited for school-aged players and above, though older players may not be as engaged due to its simplicity. We recommend this game for players who enjoy simple merging games.
