Merge Mansion
We all know grandma and the hijinks she gets up to from the ads. But is the game actually like that? Honestly, I don't know. Maybe it gets really good the deeper you get, but as far as I've gotten, not so much. You have to renovate the house and gardens, so many of the objectives are wrenches, flower pots, rakes, etc. (Some of the spawning items dont make much sense; seriously, why do I get light bulbs from a broken toy car?) The board is small and fills up fast, energy just flies by, and the story bits are few and far between. There's not a ton of ads but there are plenty of paid bonuses and energy packs. Music is fine, relaxing but with a little bounce to it, sound effects a little jarring. Graphics mostly fine but the most recent update made half my entrance garden blurry, as shown in the first image. Overall, this seems like a "play for a few minutes then put it down" type game.
Final score: 2.5/5
