Fruit merge strategy
In Squish Merge a run ends when the pile has pressed both pressers all the way in, so how to win fruit merge comes down to beating your own BEST. Every tip below works in the game, and you can try each one in your next run.
Take your time with every launch
There is no timer in a run, so nothing makes you hurry. Press a blob, hold it, and look at the whole jar before you pull down. A slow, careful launch costs you nothing. It also gives you time to read the row: look at every blob waiting above the jar before you pick one.
Pull back if the aim is wrong
Letting go is what launches the blob. If you have pressed one and the aim is not right, drag back to cancel instead of releasing. Then choose again. Cancelling costs nothing, so a doubtful launch is better cancelled than released.
Aim at a number that matches
A merge needs two blobs with the same number to touch. Before you launch, scan the pile for a number that matches one of the blobs in the waiting row, and press that blob. A launch with a partner in mind beats one that just lands somewhere.
Keep the big numbers together
A 64 can only merge with another 64, and the two have to touch. If your large numbers end up on opposite sides of the jar, each one waits a long time for a partner. Building them side by side gives them a chance to meet.
Use merges to make room
Every merge turns two blobs into one, so the pile gets smaller. When it starts to climb, look for a merge before you add another blob that has no partner. A jar with a few big blobs is also easier to read than a jar full of small ones.
Watch both pressers
The run ends when the pile has pressed both green pressers all the way in. Check both sides of the jar as it fills, not only the middle, and keep working the pile down before it presses on the sides.
Look for chains
Merging again right after a merge brings up COMBO ×N. A merge makes a doubled number, so if the same number is sitting beside it, they merge too. Before you launch, check what the new number would touch. If it would land next to a match, that is a chain waiting to happen.
What a high score looks like
Merging adds points, and a chain of merges shows COMBO. Your fruit merge high score is the number beside BEST at the top of the screen. To set a new fruit merge highest score, that is the only number you have to beat.
We will not give you a target number, because the game does not give one either. Set your own BEST as the mark, then try one tip at a time to see which one moves it. If a run ends sooner than you hoped, the pressers are the first place to look.
