Who it's for

Fans of calm, visually striking tile-placement puzzles who enjoyed Bonsai and want a solo-friendly follow-up.

Not for you if…

You want a game with direct player conflict β€” Koi stays quiet and largely non-confrontational throughout.

🦊

Vibe's take

Calm and meditative β€” the tension is purely spatial, weighing where each tile fits best rather than racing opponents.

About this game

Koi, from the creators of Bonsai, invites you to build a literal three-dimensional koi pond, layering tiles, bridges, and lanterns into a small tranquil garden while carp swim through the water you shape.
