Cloud Shepherd is a cozy little arcade game about keeping a garden alive with nothing but the clouds.

Drag fluffy clouds over thirsty plants and hold to make it rain. Let go right as the meter turns gold for a Perfect pour. Merge clouds into a storm for a big splash, but let go before the lightning strikes!

What's inside

  • Four seasons, each with its own weather: bees in spring, heat waves in summer, gusty winds in autumn and thunderstorms in winter.
  • Seven kinds of plants with their own personalities: cacti that hate too much water, always-thirsty lotuses, mushrooms that grow in the shade, sunflowers that shrug off the heat, bellflowers that love the winter, and more.
  • A garden album with 42 plants to discover. Some only grow in one season, and the rarest glowing ones only appear if you survive into the later years.
  • 18 milestones that decorate your home garden: a snowman, a sleepy cat, a pond with a duck, a wandering hedgehog and more.
  • Get through a whole season without losing a plant to win back a heart.
  • Gentle music that changes with the seasons.

How to play

  • Drag a cloud over a plant and hold to make it rain.
  • Release when the meter turns gold for a Perfect bonus.
  • Drag clouds into each other to merge them, or flick one to throw it across the sky.
  • Don't drown the cacti, and let go of storm clouds before they strike.
