About this game

Merge Mutants is a survival shooter with fast paced action and A LOT of enemies set inside a secret research facility overrun with enemies.

You are a mutant experiment trying to break free. Use your cunning and quick reflexes to defeat the scientists that are trying to stop you. Synthesize their remains into new mutants and abilities. Merge your mutants into bigger, scarier and more powerful ones.

Your initial mutant will be slower and weak

but you will be able to upgrade your mutant and add additional ones as well!

Fight your way through the enemy masses, upgrade your mutants along the way and ready up to defeat the boss!

Will you break out of the lab?
