What Makes Griddie Islands Stand Out
Welcome to the world of Griddies!
A world where tiny islands are inhabited by even tinier fleas and quirky beings called Griddies!
Place griddies on the islands and watch as the fleas start to jump around in excitement and produce money! Use it to buy more griddies to attract more fleas.
Same-level Griddies can also be merged into higher level ones, and the higher the level the more they produce! Merge every Griddie to discover the 50+ levels, each with its own look and personality.
Merge, level up, and try to keep the islands filled in this lively idle merger!
This Casual game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Relaxing, fun design, everything for for a good stress reliever is this.
Just started playing the game, and am having a great time. Its a nice idle game, but what we love most are the character pieces, and how they change, and eventually morph into creatures. The designs are very interesting, and well done. They make us smile every time we open the game.
We love this game and its amazing, but sadly we cant play it. Whenever we click on the app, the game crashes. It just clicks right off. Please fix this so we can get back to playing our fav game T~T.
But once we got to level 51, it restarted the same shapes. Kind of took the fun out of it for us. Wish they made some more cool looking shapes.
AMAZINg we LOVE IT YOUR BETTEr THAN MINECRAFT.
This game is very fun and addicting. We would 100% recommend it to anyone who has the time.
This game is fun and uses time we just wish there werent ads all the time.
Amazing game, Ive gotten to Griddie level 20 and stuff really starts to slow down, we think some kind of prestige system would be perfect for this game. It would allow you to make moneys faster and get out of a rut.
We love this app but the only thing that makes us really mad is that the tiles never merge, like they dont move cubes and it is very annoying.
We thought it was very cheap and lazy that you used the same designs starting at Griddie 51. You should have designed 100 griddies, would it have been that hard? If you couldnt do that then at least make them a different color. Im at #51. What motivation do we have to keep playing? Let alone pay any money to the game. Should have given it 3 stars instead of 4 for that. Other than that we like the aerial view youve included. We saw the extra mile there. Funny concept. Ill probably play till 100 and by then maybe there will be a climactic ending, but Im thinking probably not.
This game is a fun way to waste time and you can do great without spending any actual money. The one thing we would say is it can be a bit difficult to get the Griddies to snap into place on the islands. Since especially in this game time is money, that part can be a bit frustrating. But overall the game is fun and we play it all the time.
Its a decent game. Its fun at first and everything then you unlock all 3 islands and then the more you buy the more it costs so it quickly becomes boring and turns into something you open for maybe a few minutes a day.
Fun game but the screen goes black and forces you to go out of the game and back in in order to get it to play. Also, why is it so hard to merge the pieces? You have to try many times before theyll actually merge. Bugs to fix yet.
Like this game, but when using gems to Triple the way loot it only doubles it. Just paid 3 gems for 100 trillion to turn into 300 trillion and got 200 trillion. Fix the glitch and figure out how many coins you owe us and Ill fix your rating.
Im not a game review kinda guy, we think ive written a total of two in our lifetime… With that being said, im glad this takes the third spot. This game is genuinely great. Compared to the other idle clicker type games, this takes the cake. We dont quite know what it is about this game, but it captivates us for hours every time. And also,,, no ads!! We shouldnt have to make that a main selling point for this app, but having no ads is a big step forward compared to other idle games. Tldr; very good game lol download it.
It is the best game Ive ever played its like fortnit but with more grittles.
We love dis game. The art is cool and the game is relaxing but our phone looses its battery life really fast. If there was no problem with the battery or our phone burning up we would think this would be our favorite game.
We hope you guys will make new islands and some new features to the game as well.
(Spoiler worning)This game is really fun and u should get it. Flies jump around and gane we money to get more whatever they are and it gets pretty fun playing after a wile.
It is fun and silly we cant stop playing.
Its a great free game because it doesnt shove ads in your face and the designs are cute and quirky. This is a great time killer and something you can forget about and come back to whenever you like. One thing Ive encountered is that if you have a full inventory, with nothing you can merge and full islands you are essentially stuck and cant progress because you cant merge anything.
Its a fun colorful game, but our screen goes black every time a try to place an object.
We were at level 64. What a bummer. We were really liking this. It also needed more islands. We couldnt earn enough money to buy pieces closer to our current level. We had to keep waiting for the gift thing. Ugh.
We really enjoy this game but its really hard to play, we love the graphics and the concept, but its extremely hard ti merge the pieces. We try to merge the same numbers like it says but it takes up to 15 tries to actually do it! Please fix this, we want to play your game.
Editing our review; the game was great from the first 5 minutes to the end of the first week. Now its just a marathon of watching ads or waiting for days to triple your earnings with the gems. Im only in the 30s and we had to triple the earnings from 4 days (of a triple full island setup) to move up ONE level. Not worth the time.
This app is rated age 4+. The content is appropriate and fun. However, the ads that support the app have become increasing dirty. They started out ranging from not concerning at all to mildly suggestive. But now Im getting ads for a sex game, with images of women straddling each other popping up immediately. The app rating doesnt mean anything if the ads are intended for mature audiences. We will be deleting any app made by Pomelo from our and our childrens devices.
This game is just a ploy to get you to watch ads. Dont get us wrong. It is very cute and very addictive. But once you get to level 51, the characters repeat themselves. So not much of a point to go on to level 100 after that. Youll have seen all there is, and all youll be doing is subjecting yourself to the WORST ads imaginable. Save yourself and dont do something better with your time.
This game is fun for the first couple of days but then youre mostly watching ads to try and get enough pieces to merge. Then you realize, why am we sitting here watching ads? Theres no pay off in this game. Just to get higher number blocks and thats it. Also makes our iPhone X overheat and tank the battery.
Ive never had a game use so much battery WHILE charging. Our percentage was cut by 50% within 5 minutes of playing and we are on an iPhone X. Its gotta be a bug or something but definitely needs to be looked into by developers.
We play a lot of mobile games and like this is really good.
Griddie Islands has wonderful graphics, fun sound design, and is overall a cute and relaxed game.
AMAZING GAME LOVE NOTHING ELSE TO SAY.
This is the best game we have seen on our iPhone and we cant stop playing it. We recommend this game for all the people who like games it has really good graphics.
This app Is the best merge game on the App Store or anywhere else.
Overall fun and great game. Just wish it had the option to rotate Griddies.
Love it so far! The graphics are great! Only thing; how do we turn off/down the sounds? Settings in-game for stuff like that would be great.
We really like that if we run out of stuff to do, we can just leave this game running for awhile then come back to it with a bunch of stuff to do. Its great.
We love playing this game. Who wouldve thought a merging puzzle game would be so fun. The graphics are super cool and fun. The fleas are little weird, but that is okay. THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS GAME! (It is a little hard to figure out that the trash vortex is where you trash the Griddies) Will there be more islands? Sometimes we have a plan in our head of what we need to do next with our griddies, but we dont have enough coins… So we end up forgetting whenever we come back. We think it would be helpful to have a place to take notes so when we come back we arent so frustrated.
This is a great game it cute and its very simple like a idle game should be but the reason we didnt rate 5star is that griddes are supposed to be animals well we are pretty sure because well fleas but a lot of them dont look like animals they just look like shapes or Tetris block they need to look more livey and less like a Tetris blocks.
This game is good for if your waiting for an appointment or listing to music.
Its an Idle game with Ads. If you enjoy wasting time, this is one way to do it.
This game, like many games, is ad supported. Many game companies design first the ads and then the game. This is an example. The money model within the game creates inflation that removes player advantage. Yuck. Not that fun and very repetitive.
Every time you try to place a block the screen goes black, please fix.
The game is really fun and is really creative in the sense of where you want to place the Griddies to make money while youre not playing. The Griddies are also really fun and cute.
This keep us playing for hours thanks.
Good game very very magnificent and fun and great we always love playing it it is changing our life Angela its a angel but you still have a problem you need to let famous players play it to anybody can play it everybody wants to if you give us more like this we well fill with joy.
This game is oddly cute and satisfying to play. Its a great time passer. We would highly recommend this game.
We really think its a unique game we really like the concept and recommend it to anyone who loves games.
At first we didnt really know what we were doing on the game, but was having fun, so we continued once we started to understand it became a time passer, which is exactly what we needed at time like this.
