Match the spray to the pest

Keep one plant alive until it blooms. Every pest needs its own spray, so you read the bug, pick the right nozzle and tap. All pests are real garden pests, and the in-game guide tells you what they really do. A run takes 10 to 12 minutes. A pest's color and white emblem match one spray button; the wrong spray never helps: the pest reacts, and spraying a friendly visitor costs points and health.

  1. Read the pest

    Crawlers, flyers that hover before they dive, jumpers, and pests that pop up from the soil.

  2. Pick the spray and tap

    Switch nozzles with one thumb. Groups of aphids and pairs of whiteflies keep you busy.

  3. Water and grow

    The plant dries out. Catch water drops, use the can, and keep it healthy to grow faster and score more.

  4. Level up

    Pick one of three cards: Quick Nozzle, Wide Mist, Splash, Thick Stem, Ladybug Friend and more.

  5. Beat the plague

    Wave five brings a boss. Defeat it and the plant blooms, which opens the next garden.

Five plants, five sets of real pests

Every pest really damages the plant of its garden. Each garden has its own weather, its own pests and three rotating bosses.

What makes each run different

Wrong spray, real reaction. Every pest reacts to a wrong spray in its own way. A colored puff shows which one you triggered.

  • Rush faster for 1.5 s
  • Shell shrugs off sprays for 1 s
  • Flee returns faster from another side
  • Sidestep hops around the plant
  • Frenzy bites 1.5× harder for 3 s
  • Armor needs one more hit
  • Brood gives birth to a small pest

Weather

Rain waters the plant and slows flyers, heat dries it twice as fast, wind pushes insects sideways.

Water and growth

A dry plant grows slowly and scores less. Killed pests drop water worth chasing.

Level-up cards

Wider nozzles, faster pumps, splash spray, helpful ladybugs and more.

Records

Chase your best in every garden, with Google Play Games leaderboards and achievements.

Touch only, offline

Quick one-handed taps. No ads, no in-app purchases, no account of our own.

An automated player runs thousands of simulated games to tune each garden's difficulty.
