Slide and merge tiles across 3×3 to 6×6 boards in 10 game modes. Train your brain with daily quests, XP progression, a Gizmo companion, seasonal events, and deep-link challenges.
Sh1ftify combines classic tile-merging mechanics with modern progression systems, seasonal content, and a companion that reacts to your every move.
Classic, Timed, Move-Limited, Daily Challenge, Survival, Rush, Sudden Death, Reverse, Duel, and Gizmo mode. Each mode changes the rules and keeps the game fresh.
Play on 3×3, 4×4, 5×5, and 6×6 grids. Larger boards unlock through level progression, each with its own Play Games leaderboard.
Three quests are generated deterministically each day — same for all players. Reach a tile value, achieve a combo, play N games, and more. Complete quests for XP and coins.
Earn XP from scores (1 XP per 10 points) with a quadratic level curve. Level up to unlock board sizes, themes, Gizmo emotion packs, and a custom theme editor.
An animated character that reacts to your game events with 13 emotions — from curious to frustrated. Gizmo also appears in a dedicated mini-game and celebration overlays.
Date-driven events that override the theme, add visual effects, and change Gizmo's appearance. Halloween, Christmas, New Year, Valentine's, and Summer.
Dark, Light, Neon, Pastel, Halloween, Christmas, Valentines, Summer, and Dynamic (Material You on Android 12+). Unlock a custom theme editor at level 10.
Challenge friends via deep links, or share and watch replays encoded as compact base64 strings. Opening a link prompts the player to accept or watch.
Game state and stats sync to the cloud for cross-device play. Includes game history backup/restore and account upgrade for linking a permanent credential.
Each mode changes the rules. Find your favorite or master them all.

Your animated companion reacts to every game event with 13 different emotions and multiple image variants for variety.
Gizmo watches your every move and reacts accordingly. Merge a high tile? Gizmo gets proud. Board filling up? Gizmo looks scared. Gizmo also appears in a dedicated mini-game and celebration overlays, making the experience feel alive and personal.
Multiple image variants per emotion provide variety — you won't see the same reaction twice in a row. Gizmo's appearance also changes during seasonal events.
