About this game

Grove is a tiny solitaire puzzle that fits in a pocket and still manages to surprise you every time you shuffle. Eighteen cards of orange, lemon and lime trees lay out into a small grove, and open glade spaces let you plot smarter harvests than the game's predecessor, Orchard, ever allowed. A mischievous squirrel occasionally helps or wrecks your plans, and a wheelbarrow rewards you for going big. Play it as a simple beat-your-score puzzle, or flip the cards to reveal recipe challenges with real win or lose targets. Ten minutes, endless little variations.
