How to play
Six plants fill each row
each column, each box of six
no bloom may repeat
Tap an empty cell
then choose your plant from below
watch the garden grow
Or pick a plant first
then tap the cells where it goes
faster hands plant more
Red borders will warn
when two alike share a line
rethink and replant
Ticked plants rest complete
all six placed in rightful soil
fewer choices left
The clock starts to run
the moment your first plant falls
how swift is your hand?
Select a plant, then tap cells
Two ways to play: Tap an empty cell then pick a plant, or select a plant below then tap cells to place it.
Our first Sudoku Garden is a beta test.
Some people arrange their gardens by colour. Others like to add variety in height to give layers. We like to arrange our gardens in six beds, 2×3, and our beds 3×2, to make a 6×6 square. We also hate it when any row, column or bed has more than one plant of a specific type. Can you lay out the garden?
The idea is to have a quick, fun and relatively low effort weekend post. The puzzles are pseudo-randomly set by a seed, and I thought we could promote something like a conference or a plant awareness day, in the victory haiku you get when you win. But this may be a bad idea.
