Drought Garden
No rain is coming. Spend your finite reservoir wisely or watch your crops wilt before harvest.
How to play
Plant crops and allocate a fixed reservoir of water over thirty days to grow the most valuable harvest. The reservoir never refills.
- Plant seeds in plots, then ration water to each one daily
- Underwatered plots wilt; weather changes how thirsty crops get
- Harvest crops at maturity for points
Controls
- Desktop: click a seed then a plot to plant, use the plus/minus steppers to set water, click Harvest and Water & End Day
- Phone & tablet: full touch support — tap to plant, water, and advance
Game modes
- Daily: a seeded season for everyone
- Practice: a random season
- Difficulty levels with larger or smaller starting reservoirs
Tips & strategy
- Favour fast-maturing crops early to bank water-efficient wins
- Cut losses on a wilting plot rather than pouring good water after bad
- Check the day's weather before deciding how much to water
