The loop
Bloom Garden runs on one short loop. Each lap ends with a dice roll that can turn a carrot into a fortune.
Seven steps#
- Buy seeds with $BLOOM.
- Plant them in your garden plots.
- Water daily so they grow at full speed.
- Wait while they grow, from 1h to 24h.
- Harvest. The mutation dice roll right now.
- Sell commons for $BLOOM, or keep and mint the rare ones.
- Upgrade sprinklers, pets and land to roll better next time.
A session#
A session takes two to five minutes. Crops grow while you are away, so the game is built for short visits, three to five times a day.
- Harvest whatever is ripe.
- Replant the empty plots.
- Water anything that has not had a drink in a day.
- Check the weather forecast before you leave.
Your first hour#
A brand new garden
- You start with 100 $BLOOM and a 2x2 garden (4 plots). Another 400 arrives at level 3.
- You get 3 free Carrot seeds; buy 1 more for 50 $BLOOM. You have 50 left.
- Plant and water all 4.
- 1h later, harvest. All Common sells for 160 $BLOOM. Each Wet one is worth 80 instead of 40.
- You also earn 20 XP for the harvests and 20 XP for watering.
