A cozy merge game for iPhone

Light up Bellroot before the Moonfair.

Under an old willow lives a town too small to see. Help Nira the pathmender mend silverways, light lanternflowers and ready all seven districts for the Moonfair, where one question waits: why won't the seventh bell ring? Then welcome all seven colonies to Bellroot.

Tonight over Bellroot Full moon The moon in the game follows the real moon in your sky.

How it plays

Merge a spark into a festival lantern

Tap a generator, drag two matching things together, and they become something finer. Five families come from Bellroot's own life: light, silver thread, market pollen, dew, and the town's bells.

Help the neighbors

Kio, Aunt Brin, keeper Tern and the rest stop by with requests. Bring what they need and earn glimmers.

Mend the town

Spend glimmers on rope bridges, nectar stalls, bell ropes and street lanterns. Each district glows a little brighter.

Follow the story

Short scenes with Nira, Pipp and family carry you through the days before the Moonfair.

Act 1: seven districts, in story order

A walk through Bellroot

The Willow RootsNira's home among the roots, rope bridges between carved chambers.
The Knot MarketStalls grown into old wood. Someone is always roasting sugared pollen.
The Lantern NurseriesWhere lanternflowers gather the moonlight for the whole town.
The Bridge Keepers' SpanSera's bridges and the central passage, kept open in every weather.
The Bell TowerSeven bells, each listening to a different road. Keeper Tern and young Miri look after them.
The Eastern DistrictA water drop has trapped a silverway's note. The night before Bellroot goes dark.
The Moonfair SquareSeven paper moons, festival tarts and lanterns. Then the seventh bell stays silent.

Act 2

The Thistledown CampSeed-sail tents and thistle-down beds for a village that travels through the meadow grass.
The Glassmere LandingLily boats that float on reflections, and a lily bridge across the dew pond.
The Embermoss ForgeA travelling glass forge, red-glass beads that stay warm, and fresh acorn bread.
The Veilgrove Reading TentMushroom-glow paths, a travelling library and a story night. Inside voices, please.
The Stormhollow LookoutWind bridges, thunder drums and a storm beacon. Hold on to something.
The Crown-of-Dew PavilionDew wells, silver-mist awnings and, at last, all seven songs played together.

Card #???

There is one more card

It isn't in any pack, and it can't be bought. Its slot in your binder stays face down until you find out how to turn it over.

Bellroot has kept a few secrets. This is one of them.

Small things from Nira's world

The real moon

Lanternflowers gather moonlight, so Bellroot's moon matches yours. On full-moon nights every order pays 25% more glimmers, and each full moon brings a free Full Moon pack printed for that month. A moon widget shows tonight's phase on your Home Screen.

Tune the silverway

Every colony has its own silverway song, from Bellroot's to Crown-of-Dew's falling dew drops. Listen like Nira and tap it back. Try Bellroot's here: listen, then tap the thread in the same rhythm.

Three bright notes, a pause, then one more.

Moonlit cards

A Moonlit Bellroot Ladybird card: the ladybird glows and floats over moonlit grass

About one card in sixty comes out Moonlit: the Moonsprite glows and floats over the grass. Under a full moon it's one in twenty-five.

Fill a place's page of ten cards and it turns gold.

Themes from the colonies

Dress Bellroot in the colors of the seven colonies: Glassmere lilies, Embermoss embers, Veilgrove spores, Stormhollow snow and more.
