Tap a pale stone to send it to the tray.

Garden cleared!

That is the whole idea. The game has 200 story gardens, then endless seasons.

Three steps, no rush

You can learn it in one garden. Mastering the order of the stones takes a little longer.

Tap a free stone

Pale stones are free. Dark ones are covered, so clear the stones on top to free them.

Match three

Stones land in the bamboo tray next to their match. Three of a kind clear with a ripple. Quick matches build a combo.

Bloom a lotus

Empty the board and the tray to win. Earn up to three lotus flowers on every garden, and jade to spend on helpers.

Five worlds, five moods

Each world has its own stones, scenery and gentle generated music. Pick one to peek inside.

Stones with a twist

Six special stones arrive one at a time, each taught in a few easy gardens before it joins the mix.

More than one way to play

A garden whenever you have a minute, or a long calm evening.

Daily garden

A new puzzle every day, the same for everyone. Keep a weekly streak going and share your result.

Zen mode

Endless relaxed gardens in any world you have opened. A full tray never ends the game: stones just drift back.

Rush

Two minutes, as many sets as you can. Beat your own best. There are no leaderboards to chase.

Scrolls to collect

Find pieces of five hand-painted scrolls as you clear gardens. Finish one to read its short story.

Endless seasons

After the 200 story gardens, the five worlds return as new seasons with harder boards, forever.

Helpers when you need them

Undo, Hint, Rake and a spare tray slot, paid for with jade you earn by playing.

A look inside

Real screens from the game. Swipe or scroll sideways.

Questions

Is Tamaishi free?

Yes. It is free to download and play. It may show ads in versions that include them. The privacy policy lists exactly what is collected and why.

Do I need an internet connection?

No. The game itself works offline. Ads and usage statistics, where a version includes them, need a connection to be sent.

Can I really always win?

Every garden has at least one way to be cleared, and we check this before it reaches you. It still takes thought: a full tray ends the try. Undo, Hint, Rake and an extra slot can help, and Zen mode never ends a garden.

Where is my progress saved?

On your phone only. Uninstalling the game or clearing its storage removes it. Read how to delete your data.

Which devices does it run on?

Android phones and tablets running Android 7.0 or newer. There is no iPhone version at the moment.
