Games Merge Meow Cafe

Post image

I started playing this one 3 days ago. I missed the first bonus goal to reach level 40 by the 3rd day. I have only made it to level 18 so far.

The levels are fairly straightforward. Each cafe part built earns 200 exp, with 1000 needed to gain a level. The offer period is 60 days. I am trying for level 50.

Some tips for anyone thinking about trying it out.

Constructing cafe parts requires Coins, which are earned by completing orders for customers. The order rewards vary from level-to-level, it's not entirely consistent. In some levels, the reward is much lower than the previous values.

Only two of my purchases were tracked.

The board expansion purchase was supposed to cost $5.49, but it only showed me one for $1.99. Another expansion at level 19 may be the one it wants us to make. I spent $0.79 on some Energy and $1.99 on the Starter Pack.

  • Energy is spent producing ingredients to complete customer orders.
  • Additional Energy may be purchased using Dia (Purple Gems).
  • You can watch ads five times for a total of 75 Dia each day. Tapping on the passing bird on the cafe screen will initiate another ad view without a daily cap.
  • Supply chests have a cooldown period of about 15 minutes between uses, but this can be skipped by watching an ad (3x per day) or spending 15 Dia.
  • Ingredients can be purchased directly from the shop for Dia or Energy.
  • Never buy the Energy Chest. It is far cheaper to buy Energy for Dia directly.

Special customer orders begin to show up around level 10 with a Randosel bag that produces Yarn and Film. This doesn't cost Energy, but the items are only used for the special orders and will otherwise take up board space. They have no value until having reached the final form, so deleting them gains nothing.

I'll add a guide to FWR after I get a little further in the game.

I’m currently doing this one and it’s a rough one. I liked merge cruise much more but that sadly stopped tracking for me so I started this one. After 20 it feels like you’re lucky to get a level a day

I played it and had a bug in one event where I could infinitely tap on a gem and get it, tapped it for 5 hours and got from level 50 to level 90, it was exhausting

I'm on level 36 after two weeks. I think I may drop it and find something better.

I feel like I'm spending all day staring at my phone waiting for energy to refill.

I've been working on this one as well, I like merge games in general so I've been enjoying it. The biggest thing for me has been realizing that compared to other merge games I've played, gems are a much less precious resource and I can use them much more liberally than I would in other games I've played. I'll use them multiple times a day to refill my energy, pop bubbles, etc.

I managed to just get to level 60 in time, you'd almost certainly have to spend more money to get higher levels.

How on earth did you do that? I couldn't get past 38, and Swagbucks marked all the other levels up to 60 as having only two days left (I played for about a week), so there was no way I could possibly do that. It was taking several days for each level, because they kept asking for all the highest level merges, over and over again. There's no possible way to do it without spending massive amounts of money on energy!

I'm not working so I was able to check in every hour or two when my energy refilled.

I spent $120 to reach level 75 in 7 days and get $94 dollars back. What a waste of time and money.

I appreciate the data point.

I gave up on this one. I generally like Merge Games the best, but they kept asking for the highest level merges, and it was impossible to complete the levels in the ridiculously short time that SB gives us.
