## What is Jewelweed?

Touch one ripe pod and watch the whole bed go. It bursts and throws its seeds, each seed ripens or bursts the next pod it hits, and one good touch can set off a chain of thirty.

No ads. No account. Plays offline.

Jewelweed is a cozy chain-reaction puzzle about the touch-me-not, a real plant whose ripe pods burst when touched. Tend the garden Ada left behind, build long cascades, and find her notebook a page at a time.

A GARDEN THAT GROWS
- Thirty-six ranks across the plot, the railway bank and the glasshouse
- Five wild plants with rules of their own, and four seasons that change the light
- Ada's notebook: thirty-six pages in three voices, found as your garden grows

EVERY RUN PLAYS DIFFERENTLY
- Every two beds, pick one of three seed packets to keep for the run
- Twelve packets that bend the rules: shatter stones, throw eight seeds, refill an empty tray
- Rain, dibbers and jars of bees for a run that needs rescuing
- Earn garden coins as you play to restock tools, redraw packets or carry on when your seeds run dry

A NEW BED EVERY DAY
- One daily bed for everyone, new at midnight UTC, with no tools allowed
- Keep a daily streak, with an optional reminder
- Game Center leaderboards and sixteen achievements, if you want them. The game never asks you to sign in

MADE WITH CARE
- Free, with optional purchases for tools, coins and pod varieties, or to support the game. Nothing is needed to play or to finish the story
- Your progress saves on your device. Usage counters stay there too and are never sent to a server
- VoiceOver can read and play the bed
- Built for iPhone and iPad, with a Field Folio layout for iPhone Duo
