BUILD YOUR VILLAGE Every win brings a new building. Your donkey carries it over the bridge to your 3D island, and you watch it rise. Each new donkey moves in, wanders around, grazes, naps and carries sacks to the windmill. 10 VILLAGES TO DISCOVER A green meadow, a sunset farm, a snowy hamlet, a desert oasis, a seaside town with a lighthouse, a firefly night and more. Every village has its own buildings, weather and light. • 120 levels of relaxing puzzles, no timers • Tap a donkey to make it hop, drag to turn your village • 8 languages Free to play.
