Restaurant Renovation Merge Game
A merge game about renovating a seaside town’s restaurants
Pairs of identical items on the board merge into better ones — two cupcakes into a layered strawberry cake. Customers order dishes, and the rewards pay for renovating restaurants and other places around a seaside town, one before-and-after at a time.
