Read full description

Gravity Garden is a cozy physics puzzle about a tiny world you can hold in your hand. Spin the terrarium like a lottery wheel, let go, and watch shimmering water pour, splash and surge through its ledges. Guide every drop to thirsty flowers before they wilt, and watch them burst into bloom. NEW IN THIS UPDATE • A brand-new 3D shop: hand-crafted frames, spouts and magical waters on a turning display. • Gravity Garden Premium: remove ads forever with one purchase. • Each season has its own flowers, plus a new Dry Spell season full of cacti. • Bigger flowers with signature blooms, colour variants and rare golden blooms. • Flowing, anime-style water that pours and shines. • A unique pot for every flower. • Now in English, 中文, Русский and Español. TURN THE WORLD • Drag to spin the wheel, flick it for momentum, let it settle to pour. • Big spins pump the tank and release a powerful surge of water. • Water soaks into the soil and flows back to the tank, so every spin counts. WATCH IT BLOOM • Eight flower species, each with its own bloom: fireworks, bubbles, glowing orchids, a crystal lotus, desert cacti and more. • Some flowers are thirstier than others: learn who needs the most water. • Flowers sway as you steer; bees and a curious mole share the garden. SEVEN SEASONS • An endless garden that grows harder with every season. • Spinning paddles, downpours, droughts and the Dry Spell keep you on your toes. • The whole garden changes colour from Spring Dawn to Firefly Night. MAKE IT YOURS • Collect Dew as you play and spend it on brass, copper, timber, ivy, crystal and obsidian frames, carved spouts and magical waters: rose water, honey, soda pop, starlight and more. RELAX OR CHASE A HIGH SCORE • A short tutorial teaches the basics in a minute. • Beat your best score, one season at a time. No timers, no energy system. Just you, a little world, and the water.
