About the game
What is Gorilla Game?
Gorilla Game is a simple grid puzzle. You place animals on the board, and when three or more of the same animal line up horizontally, vertically or diagonally, the one you placed evolves into the next animal and the others disappear.
There are 10 steps: mouse, rabbit, fox, cat, dog, koala, panda, tiger, lion and finally the gorilla. The board grows stage by stage as you place animals, and after the last stage the game goes on endlessly.
The rules take seconds to learn, but planning where to put each animal based on what comes next is where the depth is. A round lasts a few minutes, so it fits any break.
Evolution
The 10-step evolution chain
Every time you line up three of the same animal, it evolves one step. Knowing the order helps you plan what to build next.
Mouse
Rabbit
Fox
Cat
Dog
Koala
Panda
Tiger
Lion
Gorilla
The game ends when every cell on the board is full. Keep space free and aim for chain reactions.
How to play
Beginner’s guide: 5 steps
You only need to click or tap. Give it one quick try.
Start the game
Press the Play button at the top of the page to load the game. Use Fullscreen for a bigger view.
Check the screen
The top right shows the animal you are about to place and the ones coming next. The evolution row shows how animals grow.
Place an animal
Click (or tap) an empty cell to put the animal there.
Line up three to evolve
Put three or more of the same animal in a row, column or diagonal: the one you placed evolves and the rest vanish. If the evolved animal lines up again, it chains for bonus points.
Clear the stage
Place enough animals to clear a stage and the board expands, ending in endless mode. When the board is full, the game is over, so try again.

Keep matching animals close
Placing the same animals next to each other makes it easy to complete three with the next one.

Keep cells free
A full board ends the game. Don’t place carelessly; think about the space evolutions free up.
4
Use diagonals
Diagonal lines count too. They are easy to overlook.
5
Aim for chains
When an evolved animal lines up with its neighbours, it chains and your score jumps.
