Game Rules:

1. Rule 1: The main objective of Stone Merge is to combine identical rocks to create larger numbered rocks. You achieve this by dragging one rock onto another rock that shares the same number and color.
2. Rule 2: Each time you successfully merge two identical rocks, they combine into a single, higher-value rock. The new rock will have an increased number and often a different color, reflecting its upgraded status.
3. Rule 3: The game board consists of a grid where rocks are placed. You can move a rock by clicking and dragging it. You can either drag it directly onto an identical rock to merge them or move it to an empty space on the board, provided there's a clear path.
4. Rule 4: You can only merge rocks that are adjacent to each other either horizontally or vertically. Diagonal merges are not allowed. Think carefully about your moves to maximize your merging opportunities.
5. Rule 5: As you progress and merge rocks, new rocks will appear on the board. The game continues until the board is completely full and no more moves are possible. Plan your merges strategically to keep the board clear and reach the highest possible numbers.

Controls:

1. Action: Select Rock: Click and hold the left mouse button (or tap and hold on a touchscreen) on the rock you want to move.
2. Action: Move Rock: While holding the button/touch, drag the rock to the desired location on the board.
3. Action: Release/Merge: Release the mouse button (or lift your finger) to drop the rock. If dropped on an identical rock, they will merge. If dropped on an empty space, the rock will stay there.

FAQ:

1. Q: What happens if the board gets full?

If the board becomes completely full of rocks and there are no valid moves left (meaning no identical rocks are adjacent), the game is over. Your goal is to keep merging and clearing space to prevent this from happening for as long as possible.

2. Q: Can I undo a move?

Currently, Stone Merge does not feature an undo button. Once a move is made, it cannot be reversed. Therefore, it's crucial to plan your moves carefully and consider the potential consequences of each merge.

3. Q: Are there any special power-ups or bonuses?

While the core gameplay focuses on strategic merging, some versions of Stone Merge might offer power-ups or bonuses. These could include items that clear specific rocks or temporarily alter the board's state. Keep an eye out for any special features as you play.
