## What is Lantern Garden?

Calm puzzle games. One quiet garden.

Lantern Garden began as a game about light: twist glowing paths to guide a beam
from its source to every lantern, and watch a night garden bloom around you.

Now the Lantern Grove is open, and nine puzzle games grow beside it — each one a
different way of thinking.

WHAT'S IN THE GROVE

- Lantern Garden — rotate paths, route the light, wake every lantern
- Root Colors — open every bloom in as few moves as par allows
- Subtract — layer cyan, magenta and yellow filters to hit the target colour
- Aurora — flood the region one colour at a time until the moon is full
- Opacity — turn and overlap veils of grey until the study matches
- Soak — let colour bleed through paper, one soak at a time
- Prism — split light across a hexagonal lattice to four coloured lanterns
- Glowthread — weave threads through the grove to light what's sleeping
- Lantern Arrange — place clusters until the long cold gives way

Every game is its own world, with its own board, its own rules, and hundreds of
levels of its own.

WHY IT FEELS DIFFERENT

No timers. Nothing in
here is trying to rush you or punish you for putting it down.

- Plays fully offline — no connection needed, ever
- Smart hints when you're stuck, one-tap undo always
- Hundreds of levels across nine games
- Full Arabic support, right-to-left throughout
- A lightweight download that won't crowd your phone

Earn Lantern Keys as you play, and light each new game in turn.

### 1.1.3 — 2026-09-29

Glowthread, rebuilt.

 This release is about one game, done properly.

 One solution. Always. Every garden now has exactly one way to connect its lanterns — and that one way uses every tile on the board. Nothing is decoration. A thread that strands an empty tile is wrong, and you can know it before the board tells you.

 A puzzle of deduction, not patience. Glowthread is now a pure thread puzzle and nothing else. No filling for its own sake, no near-misses that almost work. You read the garden, and the garden rewards being read.

 The win is simple. Light every lantern. The goal strip now shows only what you have left to do.

 New shapes to think in. Gardens come in nine board sizes, from tight 5×5 beds to wide 10×10 ones — including non-square boards that ask different questions of the same rules.

 A finish worth reaching. The winning screen has been redrawn, and the difficulty curve reworked so each of the 200 gardens earns its place.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-09-18
