Riverside Merge for Android

Looking for a laid-back merge game with a building twist? This Riverside Merge APK download for Android gets you the latest version of the puzzle title from Lion Studios, the American studio now listed on Google Play as Lion Studios Plus. The team is known for casual hits such as Happy Glass, Love Balls and Mr. Ninja, and you can grab this one for free from GNVID.

Riverside Merge story and gameplay

Riverside is a small town that was nearly wiped out by a powerful earthquake. Homes, streets, parks and other places were badly damaged, and the residents are counting on you to bring the town back to its former glory.

The core mechanic is classic merging: place two identical items together and they turn into a better one. Every item is a repair tool, from screwdrivers and hammers to paint brushes. Keep merging until you have the exact tools each stage asks for.

Players who know Merge Villa, also by Lion Studios, will feel right at home. The art style, the main idea and the overall flow of play are very close between the two games.

Modes and content: merge, then rebuild

Riverside Merge is split into two connected parts:

• Puzzle and merge: earn points and craft stronger tools by combining matching items.
• Rebuilding: spend your tools and earned money to restore the town step by step.

Along the way you will rebuild houses, fix up shops, renovate restaurants and recreate the town’s parks. There are plenty of missions to complete, and the casual pace keeps it entertaining for a long time. The game is rated 3+, so it suits all ages.
