Merju

Notes from a calm inspection of a honey-coloured hexagon board with 37 cells. Frame A Each turn hands you a numbered hexagon and shows the one after it. Tap any empty cell to place it. Three or more matching neighbours join into a single piece one level higher, right where you dropped the last one, and that piece can set off a chain that multiplies the points. Three swaps a game trade the current piece with the next. Frame B Goals runs through 30 levels in five sets: Brood Comb, Wax Rows, Nectar Flow, Royal Cells and Hive Crown. Each asks you to grow a set number or make a set count of merges within a drop limit. Stones guard the edges and crack whenever a merge touches them, and from the fourth set they fall in during play. Use few drops for three stars, with 90 in all. Frame C Classic is open-ended: a stone lands every ten drops and the game lasts as long as the comb has room. Your record, a points trend and a run history of 25 rows with the highest marked by a trophy sit on the same screen. The Daily board is seeded by the date, starts with five stones, adds one every nine drops and charts the last seven days. Frame D The Stats board gathers merges, drops, games, the longest chain, stones cracked, stars per set and quiz accuracy. Hive Facts asks ten questions a round from 25 real facts on hexagons, honeycombs and numbers, from the Giant's Causeway to the six-sided storm on Saturn, with a note after each answer. Haptics and the living background can be switched off, and the whole hive works offline, with no ads, no sound and no account.
