Water your plots, then walk away. Your garden keeps growing while the app is closed. Idle Bloom is a gentle idle game about sowing seeds and waiting for flowers. Skip a day and nothing is lostโ€”open the app again and a whole harvest is waiting for you. โ–  WAITING PAYS Every species grows at its own pace and sells for its own price. Start with quick meadow flowers, then work up to the alpine and hothouse ones that actually pay. Expand from one plot to eight. โ–  FIVE UPGRADES Watering Can, Fertilizer, Bees, Greenhouse, Market Stall. The Greenhouse is the one that matters mostโ€”it extends how long your garden keeps earning while you are away. โ–  TURN OF THE SEASON Stuck? Turn the season. The garden resets, but everything you earned becomes a permanent growth bonus, and the next season moves far faster. โ–  121 FLOWERS TO COLLECT Twelve tiers, from Meadow to Legends, by way of waterside, dry country, orchid house, carnivores, cloud forest and frozen ground. Every flower you bloom is recorded in your herbarium. โ–  A BOUQUET A DAY Fill the day's order and earn nectar. Keep your streak and earn more. Spend nectar to skip the waiting. English and Japanese. Plays offline. No account required.

About

Flosome

Read full description

Flosome is a garden app about planting a seed, looking after it, and waiting for it to bloom. Nobody knows which flower is coming Even after you plant a seed, its identity stays hidden until the bud forms. Forty-eight flowers are waiting, and a few of them are hard to meet. Every bloom also gets its own grade, so even a common flower can open in rainbow-lit Mythic form. Four kinds of care Water it, feed it, carry the pot into the light from the window, and play it some music. The more care you give, the better your chances of meeting a rare flower. Six days of waiting Seed to sprout, stem to bud, and then the bloom. Nothing opens overnight. Looking in for a moment each day is the whole of this app. Say hello to your plant Tap the pot and the flower reacts. Pet it and it is happy, and a flower you have grown many times becomes an old friend. An album and the language of flowers When a flower opens you learn its name, its meaning, the season it belongs to and a short story. The meanings are the ones that actually circulate in each language, not a translation of one another. Collect garden tools Visit each day and you receive pots, watering cans, soils and lamps. Thirteen tools are there to arrange your garden with. Seven languages Korean, English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Spanish and French, switchable any time inside the app. A quiet garden No banners, no interstitials. The only ads are rewarded ones you choose to watch, and you can collect every flower without watching a single one. No sign-up, and everything stays on your device.
