Cottage Garden is a beautiful digital translation of Uwe Rosenberg's beloved board game. It captures the 'puzzle-y' essence of gardening perfectly, where the primary challenge is spatial management. You aren't just planting flowers; you're playing a floral version of Tetris, trying to fit oddly shaped tiles into your garden beds while avoiding (or utilizing) flowerpots and garden cloches.
The digital implementation is top-tier, offering a smooth tutorial that makes the somewhat complex rules of the physical game easy to digest. The addition of 'helpful cats' adds a layer of adorable strategy—using a cat tile to fill that one annoying single-square gap is always a relief. Whether playing against the three different AI difficulties or jumping into a cross-platform ranked match, the game feels relaxed yet deeply competitive. It’s a rare 'non-violent' strategy game that manages to be just as cutthroat as any war simulator.

COTTAGE GARDEN - a colorful sea of flowers, framed by walls, paths, and hedges. As ambitious gardeners, you face the challenge of filling the beds in every corner of your garden with plants, inspired by the limitations of space to create ever new compositions. You will use a variety of plants — as well as flowerpots and garden cloches — to design gardens that bloom with diversity. Be kind to the helpful cats!
Goal of the Game - In Cottage Garden, you compete in the art of gardening. Plant two Flowerbeds with different flowers. Score each Flowerbed when there are no more free spaces visible on it, then exchange it for a new, unplanted one. You receive points for all visible Flower Pots and Garden Cloches on the completed Flowerbed, and you may also receive Flower Pots and Cats that will help you with your gardening.
The player with the most points at the end of the game is the winner.
