GAMES WE LOVE

This Garden Grows On You

Can you find the secrets blooming beneath its puzzles?

Hunny Bunny wasn’t much of a gardener...until she gained landscaping superpowers! In the story-driven puzzler Princess Farmer, pick and replant veggies to match up tasty treats. But the puzzling is only half the fun: Between gardens, chat with endearing pals (or get your hair dyed at a salon) as you solve episodic mysteries. Who knows what dirt you’ll dig up?

What we love: The awesome variety. Match beets to feed a hungry bear, reap as many radishes as possible in a set number of moves, face silly villains in harvesting battles—there’s a new twist at every turn!

Puzzle through cute forests and chilly mountains as the freshly minted Princess Farmer.

Quick tip: Trying to match quickly? Forming diagonals is often faster than yanking and replanting handfuls of veggies to make rows and columns. Keep an eye out for kitty-corner scoring chances.

Meet the creator: Married couple Charlene and Tobey are the creative forces behind Samobee Games—named for Charlene’s favorite dog breed (Samoyed) and Tobey’s nickname (Bee). Living in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada, the pair makes games from home when they’re not busy cooking, gardening, and raising their daughter.
