What to merge first
Mix industries
Pairs from two different industries tend to pay more than pairs from the same one.
Start with what you know
Your first merge is easiest with a recipe the game already shows you. Some of them lead straight into bigger companies.
Keep flexible businesses
Some base businesses fit into many recipes. Building those up first keeps more options open.
Think two steps ahead
Every company you create can become an ingredient later. Before merging, ask what the result could combine with next.
Don't merge too early
The merge fee grows with what you have invested. Upgrade businesses that earn well, then merge when the bonus clearly outweighs the cost.
Watch your perks
Some perks reveal recipes you haven't found yet. Check them when you plan your next merge.
06 · ManagersEarns while you're away
Each business offers two candidates, each with a face, a short profile and a real trait. Hire one so the business keeps earning while the app is closed.
