CLONE ✦ JUMP ✦ CAPTURE ✦ YOUR TURN
Welcome to the pond
Cute creatures.
Clever little choices.
Start with a handful of creatures and turn a simple move into a chain of captures. Protect your corners, plan around the three gaps and leave your next move somewhere to land.
Easy to pick up. Plenty to ponder.
Three moves.
A whole pond of possibilities.
Jump further.
Choose an empty stone two spaces away to move your creature across the board. Its old stone becomes empty. You can jump across a gap, too.
Turn the tide.
Every landing converts adjacent creatures from the other team into yours. One well-placed move can turn a cluster of blue shrimp into pink axolotls, or the other way round.
Make every stone count.
The aim is to finish with more creatures. If you have no legal move, your turn passes. The match ends when the board is full, one team has no creatures left, or neither player can move. Equal counts mean a draw.
One pond. Two ways to play.
Just you.
Or “your turn”.
A little solo strategy.
Play as the axolotls against the computer shrimp. Choose Easy, Medium or Hard, whether you are learning the stones or looking for more of a challenge.
Pass the phone.
Share one device with a friend. One of you plays the axolotls, the other the shrimp. Take turns, read the board and see who fills more of the pond.
Two-player matches happen together on the same device.
A world worth lingering in
More than
a board of hexagons.
Golden stones, mossy roots, rippling water and expressive little creatures make every match feel like a visit to the pond.
A pond in motion.
Animated creatures, gentle water and victory clips bring the illustrated world to life.
Set the mood.
Quiet backing music and game sound effects have separate switches. Turn motion off when you prefer a calmer screen.
