75 Orchard Story

75 Orchard Story is a match three puzzle with the gravity taken out. Clear three in a row and the ground beneath stays exactly where it is. Cleared squares turn to bare soil, bare soil puts up a sprout on the next turn, and a sprout becomes fruit on the turn after that. Nothing slides down from above, so the shape of your board is entirely your own doing.

The beds are irregular. Every chapter cuts a different outline out of the seven by eight plot, so corners, notches and gaps change how a run can grow. Twelve chapters carry a short piece of the seventy fifth season, and each one is written into a journal as you finish it.

Water the soil to push every bare square forward a stage at no cost in picks, or trade two fruit that are already lined up for the price of one pick. Eight seals track your picking, your watering, your trading and the chapters you have closed.

The whole season is offline and saved on this device. There are no purchases, no advertising, no accounts and no network use. One control in settings closes the season and erases every chapter, page, seal and score.
