🔮 How to Play

Swipe to Merge

Swipe Up / Down / Left / Right on the board to swipe the grid.

Matching ingredients merge into stronger potions.

Score Points

Every merge grants Base Points.
Your Grimoires apply multipliers, bonus scoring, and unique effects.

Reach the Target Score before your Swipes run out to complete the Order.

Collect Grimoires

Between Orders, visit the Witch’s Hut to purchase:

• Grimoires (passive modifiers)
• Reagent Scrolls (One time upgrades)
• Or reroll the shop for new options

Your build shapes the entire run choose carefully.

Manage the Grid

Every swipe spawns a new ingredient.
Plan merges, conserve space, and create higher-tier potions to boost your score.

Survive Boss Orders

Boss Orders introduce special conditions:

• Frozen tiles
• Mirrored movement
• Tile corruption
• Board rotation
  Adapt your build or be overwhelmed.

Chase the High Score

Clear all Orders, advance to the next, and face tougher challenges.
Runs are short, replayable, and full of surprises.
