How Merging Works
Two level 1 cannons make one level 2 cannon, two level 2 make a level 3, and so on. Higher levels fire faster and hit harder, so merging is the key to strong defence.
The Chicken Army
Chickens come in waves, and some are bigger, faster or tougher. Boss chickens appear from time to time and need a strong line of cannons.
Common Mistakes
Spending all your coins on new cheap cannons instead of merging is a common mistake. Fewer strong cannons beat many weak ones.
Tips for Merge Cannon: Chicken Defense
- Merge as often as you can.
- Keep a free slot for new cannons.
- Save for boss waves.
- Place strong cannons at the front.
Why Merge Cannon: Chicken Defense Is So Fun
Watching your cannons grow and blast away silly chickens is very satisfying. It is easy to learn but has real strategy.
Play on Any Device
Merge Cannon: Chicken Defense runs in your browser on Windows, Mac, Chromebook and tablets, with nothing to download. Progress is saved automatically in your browser, so you can come back later and carry on. Short levels make it ideal for a quick break between homework or chores.
Planning Your Defence
Think about where each cannon sits. Strong cannons near the front stop chickens early, while weaker ones behind them finish off anything that slips through. Leaving a free slot lets you buy and merge quickly when a new wave starts.
As waves get harder, watch for patterns. Some waves have lots of fast chickens, others a few very tough ones. Adapting your merges to each wave is the key to a high score.
Fun for the Whole Family
This is an easy game to share. Younger kids can enjoy the bright graphics and simple controls, while older players and parents can aim for higher scores and better results. Take turns, cheer each other on and see who does best.
