Swell: Cozy Bubble Merge
Relaxing Ocean Puzzle Game
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Drag, merge and set off ripple cascades. Each tide gives you a handful of drops: chain your merges to fill the jar. No timer, no rush. Grow a reef of 28 sea creatures.
Swell is a calm bubble-merge puzzle set under the sea. Drag a bubble onto another of the same colour and they merge into a bigger one with a soft pop. Every drag sends out ripples, and the ripples nudge other bubbles together, so one move can set off a cascade.
There is no timer and no rush. Each tide gives you a set number of drops; cascades are free, so clever chains carry you through the hard tides. Miss a tide and it simply washes back for another try, and nothing you have earned is ever lost. Play for two minutes or an hour, and pick up where you left off.
FILL THE TIDE JAR
Each merge adds to the tide jar. Fill it and a wave washes in the next tide. Fill it with drops to spare and every drop left over pays a bonus pearl.
SIX PLACES TO DRIFT THROUGH
Every few tides the pond moves on: Shallows, Kelp Forest, Coral Garden, Twilight Deep, Moonlit Bay and Pearl Lagoon, each with its own colours and scenery.
SPECIAL BUBBLES
Pearl bubbles pay extra pearls. Rainbow bubbles merge with any colour. A bubble that reaches full size bursts into a shower of ripples.
GROW YOUR REEF
Pearls bring sea creatures to your reef, 28 in all, from a tiny sea shell to a blue whale. Watch them settle on the sand, swim across the reef and float at the surface.
A DAILY CHALLENGE
Each day brings one small goal, such as making cascades or merging a colour, with bonus pearls and a streak to keep.
