Not working for me, though I know it would be great.

Rating based on Digidiced’s great track record and the physical version of Cottage Garden. An easy 5 star if the app would work for me. It won’t show the garden boards and freezes if I go to grab a piece.

Mostly enjoyable, but a few flaws.

As a huge fan of Patchwork, I was excited when this game came out. For the most part I love it, but I wish online play weren’t so tedious. I am constantly having to restart the app because of network connection problems. I also find it takes too long to complete a game, sometimes several days. An option to play against 1 person instead of 2 would be nice. I know there is a quick game option, but whenever I’ve tried that, there’s never been anyone available to play. Because of the slow online play, I prefer playing against the AI. I don’t see much difference between the medium and the hard AI. I usually play with one easy and one medium so I have half a chance of winning, but the easy character’s moves are so obviously bad, what was once laughable has become annoying.

A surprising challenge

I was looking for a “different”sort of game when I stumbled on Flower Garden. I tried it and once I understood the rules, it became a daily challenge for me. Definitely a departure from match three and other typical game genres, and there is something about it that draws me in. At first, the rules seemed a bit cumbersome, but once I played a few games against the AI challengers, I got the hang of it. As typical, the AI games are stacked against you, but they offer a good way to practice strategic thinking and planning. The graphics are appealing and this game offers a nice daily game experience. Perhaps the developers might consider introducing alternative ‘mini-games’ to keep us interested and challenged.

Beautiful game, in all areas!

The game itself is beautiful, runs smooth, and is very relaxing to play. The game has been updated in response to levels of difficulty, which has made the game even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this game!

Glitches galore!

This app worked well for about a week. After that me and those I am playing with have had nothing but trouble. I have games that i am supposed to be playing but they do not show up in the queue. We gave offered feedback to the developer but nothing changed! Extremely frustrating. After paying $5 fir this game I expected a smoother operation. Love the game but not the trouble🤨

Please fix online multi player!

I love the game but after recent update it isn't loading my current online games. I see I have 2-3 games thats my turn but the game list is blank. I reloaded game, redownloaded the game, nothing works. I have been timed out several of the games and counted as losses! Please fix! I can't play any games making this game useless for me at the moment. Very frustrating.

Computer cheats and no saved states

A good start it would be nice if it had the ability to resume games in progress. If the app closes or you can complete a whole game in one sitting you are out of luck and have to start all over again.

Still needs polish

Great game, but still a little buggy and has some elements that are not explained. *minor unresponsiveness when moving tiles. *hard to see the scoreboard elements when playing on smaller screens (and manipulating your score is part of the game). *no options for different timer lengths and no explanation of how the timer works in a multiplayer game, which is a particular problem when notifications are inconsistent

Cottage Garden is a tabletop board game designed by Uwe Rosenberg and all about the art of gardening, and it's coming to mobile. DIGIDICED...
