Players Can Now Design and Decorate Cozy Dwellings for Their Dragons in Gram Games’ Popular Puzzle Adventure

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Today, Zynga Inc. (Nasdaq: ZNGA), a global leader in interactive entertainment, announced that the hit puzzle adventure from Gram Games, Merge Dragons!, has launched a new feature: Dragon Homes. For the first time, players can access and manage the interior design and décor of their dragons’ abodes, introducing new items, mechanics and customization to the magical world.

In Merge Dragons!, players hatch and nurture dragons who use their powers to heal a mystical land and recharge their energy in their Dragon Camp home base. With this enchanting new update, players can now unlock, enter and decorate their dragon’s residence with a range of unique items and furnishings. Décor is themed across three distinct categories, Kala, Retro and Rustic, and each set features five distinctive item chains, each with different levels and legendary, mythical, rare, epic, common or uncommon rarity. The more a player decorates their space, the more rooms will unlock for all the new items.

‘Dust’, a new form of in-game currency, can be earned and collected inside Dragon Homes. Found only in this special section of the game, Dust can be acquired by finding individual ‘Dust Bunnies’ as well as selling furniture inventory. Dust can be used to purchase in-game crates stocked with items and objects to personalize the Dragon Homes.

“Four years ago, we introduced a new, innovative puzzle mechanic to mobile gamers with Merge Dragons!,” said Eren Yanik, Chief Product Officer at Gram Games. “With Dragon Homes, we’re continuing to evolve the Merge mechanic and bring a new design-forward, calming and gratifying way for players to further nurture their dragons and customize their in-game experience.”

Merge Dragons! is available to download free on the App Store for iPhone and iPad, as well as Google Play. For more information about Merge Dragons!, visit the game’s community channels on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.
