I’m doing this one through FreeCash. It is a Merging game with Match3 puzzles for advancement through the game.

I checked the offer terms for Swagbucks and didn’t like the time limits on completing stages. They also had too many purchase requirements. The offer through FreeCash doesn’t include any purchases and has set time limits.

I’m not pleased with the game.

The only thing you really need to do is clear the puzzles, but all the micromanagement stuff is drawing my attention and wasting time that could be spent on puzzles.

It’s addictive.

But honestly, neither site has a good deal. I wouldn’t suggest this offer. A third of the reward is relegated to bonus goals that are unachievable.

Terms

It’s 60 days to complete the offer with the first regular goal at level 30 for $1.88. The next goals are level 40, 50, and 60 by day 45 for $3.08, $6.15, and $12, respectively. Only getting 15 days to clear 30 levels is really not enough.

The final leg of the offer is levels 70 through 100 with only another 15 days to finish. This last bit is worth $258.75. If you add the lost rewards from the bonus goals, it becomes $437.50 out of total offer of $469.88.

So, realistically, I will only be able to earn $32.38 from Merge Gardens on FreeCash. As I said before, I wouldn’t recommend this offer.

Game Strategy & Support Tips

Guide credit goes to Swagbucks community on Reddit.

Lets get started with some efficient merging and resource management by always waiting to merge five items at a time, especially for those mysterious veins and gems to the max.

You should never buy baskets or hampers since its better to save your gems for missions or continuing puzzles.

After you hit level 50, keep a cache of 5-7 daily supplies so you aren’t stuck waiting for days.

For puzzles and wildlife, only do match-3 puzzles if they are necessary for leveling up or events, and focus on merging stars up to level 5 before tapping to get swan nests for your wildlife score.

Honey trees are going to be your basic source for money and eggs too.

If you can, the 30-day gem pack is worth it for a steady supply, but just spend what you need to reach goals since the game can become a grind.

You’ll want to grind your birds throughout the day whenever they have full energy. For levels 1-50, focus on merging basics and using events for infinite lives or boosts.

Once you’re in the level 50-70 range, start saving your daily boxes and trade bags until a quest actually requires them, and prioritize honey bees for your wildlife score.

For the high levels up to 99, keep grinding high-value items, but keep in mind that many think level 99 is basically impossible without a massive time investment.

If you run into issues with getting credited, make sure to provide timestamped screenshots to support and ask for an escalation to a senior specialist if they push back.

Lastly, remember that the game eventually gives you “pity rounds” after enough fails, and you can always use 25 gems for extra moves on the tough puzzles.
