Description

Lotus is a beautiful game that grows into a unique work of art every time you play. Clear your head and take in the quiet strength of the Lotus garden. It takes skillful care and nurturing to grow these flowers to their full potential, but once picked, they provide their owner with wisdom. Beware, for there are others who will do anything they can to get their hands on these mystical flowers. You'll need to enlist the help of creatures native to this land to take control of the Lotus garden and achieve true enlightenment. In Lotus, players take turns adding petals and utilizing guardians to control and nurture these mystical flowers to maturity. Collect special abilities as you grow to aid you on your quest, and gain wisdom points for each completed bloom. At the end of the game the player with the most wisdom points will emerge from the garden that much closer to enlightenment! Vibrant visual effects, skilled AI, meditative environmental music and smooth touch play translate the serenity of Lotus to your phone or tablet. Praise for the board game: • 2016 Golden Geek Best Board Game Artwork & Presentation Nominee • 2017 Academy of Adventure Gaming Arts & Design Origins Awards Nominee Praise for the board game: "Lotus is a game that is beautiful, serene, and even a bit meditative.

"It's a very interesting, dynamic game." - Joel Eddy, Drive Thru Reviews. "Lotus makes for a tense, competitive atmosphere, and it does it with a minimalist set of rules that make the game ideal for families – as long as no one minds when things start getting a little cut-throat.." – The Guardian "Lotus is more than beautiful; it’s fun and contains unique gameplay mechanisms.” –Ryan Morgenegg, Deseret News Lotus offers all of the beauty and depth of the tabletop game, PLUS: • Online asynchronous matchmaking against old friends and new • Strategic solo play to hone your skills against AI players • Progressive Challenge system to guide you through gameplay • Intuitive tap-and-drag petal placement for fast and easy play For more information, please visit www.direwolfdigital.com Follow us on Facebook and Twitter at /direwolfdigital

  • Last Round

    By Mary Taipei
    While I love this game, I consistently get caught off guard by the abrupt “end of round”. The game would be more strategic if that phase was more clearly explained. All I know is the game takes over and sometimes a player gets to recoup some points or draw cards but other times this is not so; however I don’t understand why. Otherwise, it’s a very enjoyable game.
  • Pretty game with one fatal flaw

    The game graphics and animations are pretty but not having notifications when it’s your turn is a huge painpoint. It’s easy to forget to check the app when everyone has different schedules, leading to abandoned games if no one sends a text as a reminder. I’d also love to see a more diverse nameset for solo games!
  • Excellent game

    I already had this developer’s Lanterns game and like it, so when I found this I thought I’d try it. It’s a similar concept in how it works, and it’s easy to learn but challenging in a fun way, it’s not frustrating. It’s different enough from Lanterns to enjoy both, they’re not redundant. Visually it’s gorgeous too. It’s best on a larger-size phone or iPad, I think it would be too hard to see some elements on a smaller phone. I usually don’t like landscape mode games, but I like this well enough that I can handle that (it’s not the type of game that would work well in portrait, the layout wouldn’t quite work that way). I appreciate the fair premium price and no ads or IAPs. This is another great game by a good developer. I hope it stays updated. Thank you for a great game!

    Lotus is such a lovely game! I’m a big fan of the floral theme & the magical qualities. It is a simple & easy game to learn with fun animations & sweet little guardians to help you along the way.

    I saw the tabletop version of this game at a game store and was thrilled to find a mobile version. The game is beautiful and addictive, and I love playing against other people. I wish notifications worked!

  • Great game..BUT, keeps freezing on level 9

    By LadyIce830
    I LOVE this game! It's beautiful, soothing and relaxing, but now that I've made it to level 9, after it registers my completed challenges, the game freezes. Then when I start the game again it hasn't completed registering the completed challenges and makes me do them again! :( Can you please fix???
  • Multiplayer

    Really nice, nuanced game. Starting a multiplayer friend game, however, is a pain in the neck. That needs to be fixed ASAP. It’s the primary reason I got the game. Bugs like this are fatiguing.
  • Better!

    By DanimalKrakr
    I originally gave this game 1 star due to frustrations at launch with bad connection. That has since been fixed. This is a beautiful game. I love the physical games art and this really just knocks it out of the park. I really love how I can play this game with friends at different times. If they ever get notifications to work this will be a 5 star game. As of now there is no way to know when it’s your turn until you open the app.
  • I wanted to like it...

    They graphics are nice. And the music is also nice. But I couldn’t get interested in the gameplay itself. Moving ladybugs, etc. Perhaps it’s just a bit too laid-back for me.
