About the game
A garden has gone grey and quiet. Play one match-3 level, earn one star, spend it, and something is mended at once — a bed cleared, a fountain running, a hundred roses planted. The Beast is gruff and embarrassed and very bad at holding seedlings, and the briar grown through him flowers as the garden comes back.
Beauty and the Beast — The Rose Garden is an original game built from the public-domain fairy tale. Every level is one short puzzle with one clear goal and no clock. Finishing it earns a star, and every star mends one real thing in the garden, straight away, where you can see it. Five areas — the rose garden, the fountain court, the orangery, the orchard and the winter garden — go from frost to full sun as you work. Choose the roses, the fountain figure, the bench and the lamps; the garden remembers. Look in the mirror to see the family at home, and turn the ring to travel — Beauty is a guest and may leave whenever she likes. Nothing is timed, nothing can be lost, and there is nothing to buy.
How to play

- Each level tells you one goal at the top. Meet it before your moves run out.
- Line up four for a watering can. Five for a sunbeam. A square for a bee.
- Finish a level and you earn a star.
- Spend the star in the garden and something is mended straight away.
- There is no clock and nothing to lose. If you run out of moves, just try again.
- Turn the ring to travel. Look in the mirror to see your family.
