A calm descent, one merge at a time.

About

Deeplii is a calm physics merge puzzle about going deeper, gently. Players drop cute, hand-drawn sea creatures into a vertical ocean board; matching creatures merge into bigger ones, and a good merge can carry the whole run one layer deeper.

There are ten hand-drawn ocean layers, each with its own light, water and inhabitants. Every species a player meets — 80 in all — is remembered in the in-game Deep-Sea Journal, alongside the deepest point they have ever reached.

"We wanted the opposite of a noisy puzzle game: no timers, no forced ads, no purchases — just a quiet ocean that rewards a well-placed drop." — the developer
