Each day, every Bonsai Snip player worldwide is given the same algorithmically grown tree. You have five snips to prune it into a bonsai — thinning the canopy, finding asymmetry, opening up negative space. Submit your prune, see how you scored on three axes, share the result, come back tomorrow. A 90-second cozy puzzle with the same starting tree as everyone else, every day. • A unique tree every day, deterministically generated from the date. Your friends and strangers are pruning the same tree you are. • Tap a branch, then tap Snip. Five total. The cut cascades to the subtree — choose your roots carefully. • Three scoring axes: asymmetry, density balance, negative space. Each 0–300, total 0–900. The score breakdown shows you what the algorithm noticed. • Daily Game Center leaderboards. See how today's prune ranked against the world. • Watercolor / sumi-e aesthetic. Calm animations only — no screen-shake, no bounce, no streaks to maintain. • Share your pruned tree as a 1080×1920 image, branded with the date and your score. • No accounts. No notifications. No in-app purchases. No ads.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Logic Grid Puzzles at Free against Bonsai Snip's $2.99. Logic Grid Puzzles also leads on ratings volume (39K vs 1) and chart position (#134 vs unranked). Bonsai Snip's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 12) and update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly). On rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
