Connect the Fish: Reach the Pike

Connect the Fish: Reach the Pike is a relaxing merge puzzler with bright river-themed graphics where you connect familiar freshwater fish. Fish drop one by one into the board: perch, silver bream, rudd, redfin, bream, pikeperch, silver carp, and other river species. When two identical fish land next to each other, they merge into a single larger or rarer fish. The main goal is to reach the pike by merging increasingly valuable fish, and after you reach the pike, the game shifts to a scoring challenge: chase a new high score and climb the leaderboard. The game recreates the feel of real river fishing, using only wild freshwater fish. You also get three types of power-ups: pick the next fish to drop, use a bomb to shuffle the board, or call a cat to clear blocking fish.

How to play?

Drop fish onto the board with your mouse on a computer or your finger on a phone, guiding each fish to the right spot. Identical fish that end up side by side automatically merge into a larger one. Plan your drops to trigger merge chains and keep the board from filling up. If fish occupy the entire space and cross the top line, the run ends. Use power-ups in tough moments, reach the pike, and rack up as many points as you can.
