About Seedle (seedle.io)

Seedle is a puzzle about growing the best garden from a fixed hand of tiles. The day's board is a grid in which some cells are blocked by rocks. Your hand holds crop tiles, each of which tells you what it wants around it, and booster tiles such as the sprinkler, which score nothing themselves but strengthen the crops next to them. The same tile placed in a different spot gives a different score.

You place every tile from your hand, then harvest. Once harvested a board cannot be changed, so the thinking happens before you commit. The result is graded with a letter, and an S grade means you matched or came near the best arrangement the solver found.

Each daily puzzle has a night twin, a spookier and harder version in which you grow a graveyard instead of a garden; it unlocks once you earn an S on the day puzzle. Badges reward streaks and special dated puzzles, and there are random puzzles for extra play. Seedle runs in the browser and also has apps for iPhone and Android with daily reminders.

How to play Seedle (seedle.io)

1. Open Seedle and look at today's grid and the rocks that block it.
2. Read each crop tile in your hand to see which neighbours it wants.
3. Drag every tile onto a free cell, using boosters beside the crops that gain most.
4. Harvest when all tiles are placed and see your score and grade.
5. Earn an S to unlock the harder night puzzle.

Tips

• Place boosters first in your head: they score nothing but lift every crop around them.
• Corners and edges have fewer neighbours, so put undemanding crops there.
• Rocks shape the board, so look for the cells with the most open neighbours.
• You cannot undo after harvesting, so check every placement before you commit.
