Cities are fun, happening places to be, full of action, excitement, and drama in spades. But let's face it; they are also crowded, noisy, and dirty. What city dweller hasn't momentarily yearned for a little plot of land somewhere and a lovely green garden? A place to call your own, a place to breathe in nature, a place to make the neighbors, well, green with envy. This is the premise of Gardenscapes by Playrix Entertainment, a hidden object game with elements of time management and sim games thrown in to make a fun, exciting, and yet curiously relaxing experience.

NWR: Gardenscapes’ name is a bit misleading, because while the game does involve a garden, the majority of your time is spent inside a hoarder’s home. Although finding objects inside the house is the main objective of Gardenscapes, your character’s true motive lies in rebuilding a once-famous garden. While the gardening aspect doesn’t allow alot of customization, the hidden object portions of the game are surprisingly well done.
