## What is Primrows+?

A challenging game of logic, luck, and pattern recognition that adds a twist of chance to sudoku mechanics. Tend to a whimsical garden with organic sounds and visuals while you unearth new weekly challenges that introduce special mechanics.

Test your skills in a game of logic, luck, and pattern recognition. After flowers grow at random, prune them away to ensure there are no two of the same flower in any row, column, or quadrant. Harvest at the end of each round to collect points and grow your high score.  Master new challenges presented in each round as you watch your gardens flourish!

Harvest as many points as you can in Quick Play or enjoy the more advanced Journal Play that rewards you for meeting certain criteria.

Can’t get enough? Anticipate each Weekly Challenge that introduces special flowers and tiles that change the gameplay. Celebrate holidays and other milestones with themed challenges and festive artwork to get you in the spirit of the season.

### 5/5 — Cute game!

*2025-12-13*

The art style and gameplay are cute and fun, and I can see this game taking up a lot of my time. I will say that I've had some issues when trying to start a new game, either it crashes and needs to be relaunched or I have to "quit" the game I just finished to start a new one.

**Developer response:** Hi there!  I'm glad to hear you're having fun with the gameplay and art.

If you're still experiencing crashes, please send any screenshots or video clips to support@TursiopsStudios.com to help us reproduce the issue, along with any information about the device and iOS version that you're using, and we'll try to get to the bottom of this!

### 5/5 — Relaxing game

*2025-08-21*

This is an excellent low stress game that is perfect for listening to podcasts. Journal play is like a small collection of challenges. So easy to lose yourself for hours at a time. Sandbox play is a lot of fun too. Wish I had found this game the day it was released.

### 5/5 — A really fun game!

*2025-07-02*

A pleasant game that’s easy to learn and lots of fun. I had the pleasure of meeting the developers at the last two Midwest Gaming Classic conventions and they seemed like a great team. If you want to try a great twist on the side scrolling shoot-um-up try their other game “The Day We Fought Space”. A great indie studio I look forward to seeing more from.

### 5/5 — 10 stars, great game!

*2025-04-30*

I found this game randomly while looking for a new game along the quick-play, points-earning, tile-placement genre, and came across this. I’m so glad! This is an awesome game!

It’s easy to learn, has a great tutorial, and has a relaxing vibe while still offering a challenge. There are different modes depending on what kind of game you want to play as well. I’m not a gardener, I’m a guy who doesn’t necessarily draw to flowery stuff, but this is beautiful. I really like this game. 

I super appreciate the extremely fair monetizing for such a high quality, well made product. I immediately paid the affordable price to unlock everything just after playing one game. It’s that good. And there are no ads or greedy IAP. I applaud these developers for doing it all right and so well. 

Thank you for making this! I highly recommend this game!

### 5/5 — A wonderfully cute & cozy game!

*2025-04-18*

Primrows is a lovely casual game, great for short sessions with a lot of replay-ability. A brilliant blend of game mechanics with a gardening theme, I always love seeing the happy flowers perk up! Once you get that first prize garden, you’ll be hooked!

### 5/5 — Cozy and low stress

*2025-04-17*

Such a nice, peaceful game! It’s nice to find games that don’t hype you up with stressful competition and timed rounds. This game is a cozy yet challenging experience.

### 5/5 — Aaron S

*2025-04-17*

Really satisfying puzzle game that’s a perfect combination of luck and strategy.

### 5/5 — Already in love

*2025-04-17*

Even just after the tutorial I paid to unlock everything. 4.99 is perfectly reasonable for such a lovely game. I’m already hooked. Please please please keep updating this game so I never run out of levels :’)
