About Dark Myth: Monkey Merge
Dark Myth: Monkey Merge is a merge-and-battle strategy game starring the Monkey King. Your master and companions have been captured, and the road to rescuing them runs through stage after stage of monsters. You do not swing the staff yourself - you build the army that does.
The core loop is merging. Two matching warriors combine into a stronger one, and the ranks climb from Common all the way to Legendary. You deploy your squad and clear the monster waves stage by stage. Beating key stages frees a captured ally, who joins your side and opens up new options.
Around the fights there is a layer of long-term progress. The game uses two currencies, Gold and Merit Points, and you spend them on weapons, talents and buildings. That gives the game the feel of a pocket-sized campaign: every session leaves your army a little stronger than before.
How to play Dark Myth: Monkey Merge
- Merge two identical warriors to create one of a higher rank.
- Deploy your squad before the battle begins.
- Clear the monster waves to finish the stage.
- Beat key stages to rescue your master and companions and unlock new allies.
- Use your Gold and Merit Points to upgrade weapons, talents and buildings.
Tips and tricks
- Try merging as soon as you have a matching pair, since every merge produces a stronger warrior.
- If a stage beats you, try upgrading your weapons or talents before you go back in.
- Spread your spending across the three upgrade areas - weapons, talents and buildings - rather than pouring everything into one.
- Keep the rescue goals in mind. Key stages free your master and companions and unlock new allies, so those are the fights worth preparing for.
