Make7
What is this game?
Make7 is an engaging hexagonal number-merging puzzle game. It cleverly blends classic grid-placement gameplay with an incremental number-synthesis mechanic. Players place numbered hexagonal blocks onto a honeycomb board, merging three identical numbers to create a larger one. The ultimate goal is to synthesize blocks bearing the letter 'M' and detonate them. Designed for brain-teaser fans, Sudoku lovers, and casual players seeking to break personal high scores. With no time pressure, you can pause to think anytime, and a single round can last a very long time.
How to Play
The game is played on a hexagonal grid. Single or connected numbered hexagonal blocks (1 to 3) spawn randomly at the bottom of the screen. You can tap to rotate these blocks before dragging them into empty grid spaces. When three or more blocks of the same number are adjacent (edge-to-edge), they merge into a single block with a value +1 (e.g., three '1's merge into one '2'). Your core goal is to keep merging upwards until you create a '7'. Merging three '7's creates a special bomb block (often marked 'M' or a star) that detonates, clearing surrounding blocks and freeing massive space. The game ends when the grid is full and no new blocks can be placed.
Beginner Tips
- Rotation is key: Always remember to tap the blocks to rotate them before dragging them up. Often, a simple rotation allows two numbers to perfectly slot into the existing formation, triggering an instant merge.
- The center rule: Try to keep large numbers (like 4, 5, 6) in the central area of the grid, placing small numbers (1, 2) on the edges. The center has the most contact points with other cells, maximizing multi-directional merge potential.
- Reserve space for 1s and 2s: Early on, don't just dump 1s and 2s randomly out of laziness. Dedicate a specific area to digest incoming 1s and 2s, stably converting them into 3s before feeding them towards the center.
- Don't block 'traffic': When placing blocks, avoid completely surrounding a large number (like a 6) with small numbers. This makes it incredibly difficult to transport other 6s over to merge with it later.
- Calculate for double-blocks: The game often provides two connected numbers (e.g., a 1 attached to a 3). Mentally simulate before placing to ensure they both serve a purpose upon dropping, or at least one merges immediately.
Advanced Strategy
Chain merge planning (Combos): This is the core to high scores. Don't settle for single merges. Try to set up: placing a 1 makes a 2, which perfectly matches nearby to make a 3, which instantly makes a 4. This 'chain reaction' saves space and yields exponential scores.
Optimal bomb detonation placement: When you synthesize the final bomb (M), where it detonates is crucial. Try to ensure its blast radius encompasses those 'dead blocks' you mistakenly misplaced earlier, using this chance to cleanse the board.
Controlling the dual-blocks (twins): Later connected blocks become trickier. Advanced players use grid edges or existing large blocks as 'walls', rotating to stuff the useless number into an obscure dead corner while only letting the useful one participate in merging.
Common Mistakes
Isolating large numbers: Placing a 6 on the far left and merging another 6 on the far right, with the middle stuffed with 1s and 2s. These two 6s are like separated star-crossed lovers, never merging into a 7, becoming space-wasting junk.
Forgetting to rotate: Due to habitual dragging, when facing an awkward double-block, forgetting to tap and rotate it. Forcibly shoving it into a heavily disruptive position leads to ruining the entire board.
Leaving no path for the 7s: Finally managing to create two 7s, on the verge of a board-clearing bomb, only to realize they are walled off by a circle of 1s. The third 7 simply can't be slotted in, resulting in a frustrating Game Over.
Who is this game for?
Make7 is a must-play for logical deduction enthusiasts and die-hard fans of number merging games. Combining minimalist aesthetics with deep spatial planning, it's highly suitable for adults to deeply relax their brains during long trips or quiet nights.

The king of number merging. Though Make7 is placement-based rather than sliding and uses a hex grid, the underlying anxiety and thrill of 'merging larger numbers while preventing board-fill' is identical.
Hexa Puzzle
A pure hexagonal block placement elimination game. If you find Make7's math too tiring, this shape-filling game provides a similar visual experience with more relaxed gameplay.
Merged!
Extremely similar gameplay logic. You place blocks with dice pips, merging three identical ones into a higher pip, eventually creating a bomb. It's arguably the square-grid sibling version of Make7.
