How to play Juices Merge

You are running a beach juice bar. The puzzle happens on the table; everything you earn there goes into serving customers and rebuilding the resort.

1. Launch a glass onto the table

A glass sits at the bottom of the table, ready to go. Launch it upward — where it lands is what decides the round. The tray along the bottom edge shows every drink you have discovered so far, so you can see how far up the chain you have reached.

2. Merge identical drinks

Two identical drinks that meet combine into the next drink up. Each merge frees space, and a merge that creates a drink already touching its own match will cascade. Higher-tier drinks pay far more when served, so climbing the chain is the whole point.

3. Read the customer orders

Customers sit along the bar with an order card above them. The card shows the drink they want and the reward, split into coins and trophies — for example 26 coins and 256 trophies, or 19 and 192 for a cheaper drink. Some orders ask for two of the same drink, marked x2.

Notice the pattern: better drinks pay disproportionately more. Serving one high-tier order beats serving several low-tier ones.

4. Claim what you have made

When a customer's drink exists on your table, a green CLAIM button appears beneath them. Claiming pays out and frees the seat for the next customer. Trophies are what the global Ranking screen is built on — the top players sit above 100,000.

5. Keep the table under the line

A dashed line runs across the table. Drinks that never find a match build up, and once they pass the line the round is over. This is the failure state, and it is almost always caused by ignoring one or two stranded low-tier glasses for too long.

6. Craft juices to unlock boosters

Reaching a new drink for the first time — Pine Potion, for example — triggers a CONGRATS screen and unlocks a booster. The boosters are:

  • Hammer — removes a single glass from the table
  • Table clear — wipes the table
  • Extra slot — more room to work with

These are the release valve. Progress in this game is as much about unlocking the tools as it is about the merging itself.

7. Rebuild the resort

Coins are spent unlocking and decorating areas. Each one — Juice Bar, Sitting Lounge, Love Gazebo and beyond — begins run-down and is restored piece by piece: furniture, plants, umbrellas, decorations. The Collection screen shows which areas are complete and which are next. There are more than 100 in total.

8. Play the events

Limited-time events run alongside normal play on a countdown. Blue Blast asks you to create blue glasses; Pine Rush targets pineapple drinks. Each has a prize ladder — gems, boosters, then a grand prize at the top. There is also a daily gift on the home screen.
