Merge Studio: Fashion Makeover successfully blends the meditative loop of a merge puzzle with the satisfying 'before and after' payoff of a makeover show. As a stylist, you aren't just matching tiles; you're fulfilling the dreams of characters who need a boost in confidence. The narrative beats are surprisingly heartwarming, giving you a reason to care about the next merge.
The item variety is impressive—you'll be merging everything from hairdryers and makeup brushes to high-fashion garments. While the energy system can be a bit restrictive during longer play sessions, the frequency of events and the sheer variety of customization options for your studio keep the experience fresh. It’s the perfect game for players who enjoy a mix of strategy, creativity, and light storytelling.

Enjoyable
Sat May 31 2025 CB36988I’m really enjoying this game, especially recently because I have been going through some mental health issues and this game helps me relax and cope. But…. there appear to be recent changes. The random pop up ads are getting longer and more frequent, which is frustrating. I don’t mind watching an ad here and there to pop a bubble or recharge some energy but a 2 minute ad is much too long. I also noticed the items that produce the merge items seem to have a much smaller capacity and are producing a much smaller amount of items. Also, does the energy capacity ever increase as you level up? I’m on level 60 and having the demand for much “bigger” or higher level items is understandable, but shouldn’t the energy capacity also increase somewhat? These things I’ve noticed are actually starting to get frustrating and making the game not as enjoyable, engaging, and calming. I’m currently struggling financially as well due to a cut in income and do not have the funds to make game purchases, but these things listed is almost making it not worth playing anymore, which makes me sad because I enjoy it so much and it’s therapeutic. Please don’t make it frustrating for people who don’t have the funds to put money into a game in order for it to continue being enjoyable. Some people are in financial hardship as the cost of living continues to skyrocket in recent years. Please accept and consider this feedback. I realize you’re also a business and business goals are to make profits, but please don’t limit accessibility to those who cannot afford to spend much money or any money to have the game continue to be enjoyable to people. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Irritating Tutorial and Too Many Ads!!!!!
Sun Sep 24 2023 who stole the nicknames😒I’ve only written a couple reviews in my life, 1) When the app is insanely good and doesn’t have many reviews and 2) When a feature in a game makes the game extremely unbearable and annoying. THIS GAME HAS THE LONGEST TUTORIAL ON THE PLANET!!! The game play itself is what you expect, if you’ve ever played a merger, you’ve played this. But the difference between this game and others I’ve played is that the tutorial draaaaggggs on and you don’t have the option to either turn it off or go against the tut. One of my pet peeves is games that continuously force you to choose what THEY want and making you use your special gifts when you don’t want to. This game 100% needs an option to disable the tutorial because it’s making me want to delete the game with how insufferable the tut is!! Also, while it’s understandable that the game has ads, almost all games do, an ad after every 5 taps in the game is just overboard. I’m one of those people who willingly watches ads to better my gameplay, literally all the time, so all these ads starting in the middle of levels with no gain is infuriating. I get the occasional ad, trust me I do like get your bag, but please cut the ads back because it makes for a terrible gaming experience and, again, it makes me want to delete the game!! I really want to keep this game around because overall I like the game but these issues are making me reconsider downloading. Thank you for reading and I hope these problems are resolved in the near future.👋🏽
Why I love this game
Wed Jan 25 2023 🌹🌻🌸🍓Soso🌹🌻🌸🍓I love this game because it is so fun and the game feels so different from other games that I can actually enjoy playing with my friends I actually downloaded the game last night and I started playing it and honestly it is so cool and fun I really enjoy the game but it has so many different ways but I actually like that it’s different than the other games but I just want to let the person who made this game know that thank you for the game and now I think if I had to rate it out of ten even tho I already rated it if the rate was from ten I would probably rate it a 9.9 out of ten and a huge thank you again to the person who made this game now do you know what I’m gonna do now is sponcer you and the other thing I’m gonna do is I am gonna tell all my friends to get this app because you know what I just said so bye I hope you have the best day of your life not just today but I also hope you have a great time of your life byeeeeeee🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋💎💎💎💎🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🫰🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻love you guyssssssssss🌹🍓🍓🍓🫐🫐🫐🍀🌻
The new update makes it a lot less fun to play
Thu May 29 2025 The lane 2119I don’t know what happened, there must have been an update in the game, but it’s a lot less fun to play now. Before, when you would click on the icons that produced the items, as long as you didn’t click them too many times in a short period of time, they wouldn’t have to stop to recharge. Now it’s like each icon only has a certain number of clicks before it recharges, even if you move to a different icon. For example, it’s like an icon now has 15 clicks before it forces you to stop using it while it regenerates. If you click only 10 times and then move to a different machine icon for a while and then come back, it will only let you click the last 5 times before it forces you to not be able to use it. Even if you come back to the machine days later it only gives you those last clicks before recharging even though so much time has gone by in between using it. It didn’t used to be that way. Now it feels like my machine icons are always recharging now and it makes it really frustrating to play. I also haven’t gotten any new machine icon pieces since this upgrade so I don’t know how I’m supposed to upgrade my machines to make it let me use them longer or get better items from them. I wish they would go back to how it used to be. If not, I think a lot of people are going to end up not playing for very much longer.
Very fun
Thu Jan 11 2024 husgedjI really like this game. It’s casual but also relaxing and entertaining. I haven’t run into any bugs either. I did take off one star though because the ads on this game are very intrusive and extremely frequent. I seem to be getting a forced ad every 30 seconds to a minute. As a gamer I will click to watch ads willingly if given a choice and there is incentive in it for me. I do not like when games force ads upon me against my will and continuously do it to try to manipulate me into buying no ads. I think that’s not kind to the players that are giving their time to a game. I wish the ones in charge of this game would stop trying to manipulate the players into spending money just to get an experience they should already be given (a choice to watch an ad or not, not forced). I wish the ones in charge of the game would come up with a more creative and fair way to get players to want to spend money and/or watch ads instead of forcing the players to watch ads way too often if the players don’t spend money. I’ve found that games that want me to spend actual money to stop intrusive ads, it wasn’t worth it to stop the ads and I ended up quitting the game. The game developers can do better than this. Other than that, I like this game.
Very disappointed
Tue Oct 10 2023 (Lulu$)This is the first time that I write a review for an app, and it’s because I really liked this game (to the point of making regular purchases), but since it has been such a let down in the past few months I deleted this game from my phone. I honestly found this game to be very entertaining and worth the time to play, but it has been left unattended for long periods of time very often during this year. One of the main points of the game it’s to give characters a whole makeover, and in the last few months there’s been weeks where there were no characters to help. Leaving the players to collect a ridiculous amount of coins for nothing. On the most recent update, it was only given 2 characters to help, and that’s it for however long they want. They also took away the only way of collecting diamonds while playing, to instead collect coins that aren’t necessary (since there’s no characters to give a makeover) making players to spend more money to get diamonds and be able play. Whoever is in charge of this game seems to be taking long breaks of doing nothing, and then coming back with TERRIBLE updates to make up for their loss of money during their lazy time. Currently searching for a better game out of the merge company.
No Pay For Completing Challenges
Wed May 29 2024 MrstntpI love this app for the simple fact that the games are fun, challenging, and relaxing. One reason I have to give it 3 stars is because I have completed the challenges for the full payout out on 2 different games already weeks ago and they show completed but have yet to get paid into my bank account. I have submitted 2 or three different tickets and have not got a response from anyone. Don’t get me wrong, I have cashed out on reaching $25 at least once on the daily spin and watching the ads so that’s a plus. Another reason for the 3 star review is because I believe it is ridiculously crazy that we only get one cent for watching ads. Creator, you could do better than that. I would love to be able to go back and change my rating to a 5 star review but first I need to see the money that is said to be made by playing these games. And if I have done something wrong to which is the reason I have not been paid, then a response would be good at this point. So if you in it for the money, I would think twice before downloading.
Zero Stars 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
Sat Mar 09 2024 Incorruptible Truth TellerI have played this game and was not impressed. I have found much better games very similar to this one. Luckily the ads I seen before downloading were NOT the ads I constantly see now. You are rated for 4+. Your ads are horrible! I don’t understand why developers believe it makes their games appealing to depict domestic violence in their ads? I also don’t understand why this would make people download your game after seeing your advertisements. Society 🙄. You want parents to allow children to play but show ads of a mother being slapped to the floor by her mate in front of her child. As a society we need to do better. We victim shame enough. Now game developers are looping in domestic violence scenes left and right to market games that are supposed to be fun. I’m sure these ads are triggering for some victims ESPECIALLY children who have had to witness things no child should ever have to experience. If it has nothing to do with your game or actual gameplay why would you even take the time and expense to create anything like this? I’m sure as long as people keep downloading your game you will continue to market this way. This says a lot about the mentality and lack of integrity of game developers. Do better. Be better.
