Step into the enchanting world of Gnome Garden, a relaxing yet challenging logic puzzle game. As the Head Gardener, your task is to assign a protective Gnome to every blooming sunflower in the meadow. But be careful—these Gnomes are incredibly shy! They must follow the ancient garden rules: each flower needs exactly one neighbor Gnome, and Gnomes can never stand next to each other (not even diagonally). Can you balance the garden across 100+ sun-drenched levels? Features: - **Cute & Vibrant Visuals**: Beautiful hand-drawn SVG gnomes and bright, cheerful landscapes. - **Pure Logic Mechanics**: Based on the classic "Tents and Trees" puzzle with a charming twist. - **Satisfying Feedback**: Watch your flowers glow and bloom as you find the perfect layout. - **Adaptive Challenges**: Puzzles ranging from small backyards to grand royal gardens. - **No Pressure**: Play at your own pace with no timers and a minimalist Material 3 UI.

Turn turtles into stepping stones and get the bunny to the carrots! ZeroRoad is a number puzzle set in a peaceful pond. The number on each turtle's shell is how far it can swim. Every square it moves lowers the number by 1, and at exactly 0 it tucks into its shell and becomes a stepping stone. Link the bunny's island to the carrot island and the stage is clear! 【How to Play】 - Drag a turtle to swim. Each square lowers its number by 1 - Let go at 0 and it tucks in to become a stepping stone - Lily pads are ready-made stones. Turtles can dive right under them - Tap a placed turtle to send it back home - Connect the bunny to the carrots to clear the stage 【Key Rules】 - Rocks and islands can't be entered - Turtles can pass over lily pads and other turtles. That square still costs 1 - A turtle can't reach farther than its number. Which turtle, in what order, to where? That's the puzzle 【2,000 Stages】 A short animated guide shows the rules, and the first 7 stages are a hands-on tutorial. Ponds grow as you progress, with lily pads and rocks shaping the way. Difficulty rises and falls in waves, so a tough stage is followed by a breather. - No lives, no timers, no stamina - Progress is saved, so you pick up where you left off 【Stuck? Use a Hint】 Pick any turtle and use a hint on it: it glows gold, swims to its right spot, and locks in place. You start with 5 hints; watch an ad to get more. 【Features】 - Simple drag and tap controls in portrait mode - A cozy low-poly 3D pond with an adorable bunny and turtles - Separate volume sliders for music and sound effects - Reset a stage anytime 【Perfect For】 - Fans of number puzzles, logic puzzles and brain teasers - Players who love thinking games like Sudoku or Sokoban - Anyone who wants a relaxing brain workout with cute animals - Commutes, queues and short breaks Count the turtles down to zero and build the road. 2,000 stages: can you get the bunny home?
