## What is Drift?

Find a place for every lantern.

Place lanterns around stones to meet each row and column count. Explore 600 catalogue gardens, with room for different solutions that satisfy the clues.

Build your own sanctuary as you complete different gardens. Choose lanterns, plants, ponds and moonstones for nine places, and rearrange them whenever you like.

In Garden workshop, design a 4-6 square garden, solve its clues and keep it in a private collection of up to 24 designs. Share a plain garden code with someone you choose, or import theirs. No account or public feed is needed.

Evening mode, optional sound and gentle-touch settings let you choose the atmosphere. Progress stays on your device, with no timers or daily streak penalties.

One free hint is available each day. Optional rewarded adverts and ten-hint packs provide extra help; no banners or interrupting adverts are shown. Delivered hint credits are device-local and cannot be restored after deleting the app. Core play and the workshop do not require purchases.
