What is Make 5?

Place numbered hexagonal blocks onto a grid to connect identical digits, merging them into a single higher value using hexagonal cell logic.

How to Play

You have a hex grid and a queue of numbered pieces (singles or domino-pairs). Your goal is to merge numbers 1, 2, 3... up to X. Interaction is "Drag-and-Rotate." Drag a piece to the board. Tap to rotate orientation. Place it to connect 3+ identical numbers. They merge into the next number +1. Combo Logic: If a merge creates a new number that matches neighbors, it triggers a chain reaction. Game ends when grid is full.

Pro Tips

Build from a "Central-Hub." Create high-value clusters in the center to maximize merge points. Always prioritize placing "Double-Pieces" first as they are harder to fit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens after I make 5?

Merging three '5's creates a "Star" (Bomb). Merging three Stars clears a massive radius of tiles to clean up the board.

Can I discard a piece?

Usually no. You must play every piece, which forces you to utilize "Trash Zones" on the outer rim for useless numbers.
