Seed Sow

No ratings yet

Sow seeds around a carved wooden board, chain extra turns and capture: keep a winning streak alive against three AI tiers, or play a friend on one device.

How to play

  1. Pick a mode (and 4 or 5 seeds per cup) and press Play.
  2. Click or tap one of your glowing cups (the bottom row, or the left column on a phone). Its seeds are sown one per pit anticlockwise, into your store but skipping your opponent's. Hover a cup, or hold a finger on it, to preview where its seeds will go.
  3. If the last seed lands in your store, sow again. If it lands in an empty cup on your side and the cup opposite has seeds, you capture them all.
  4. When one side's cups are all empty, the other player banks the seeds left on their side. The bigger store wins.
  5. Against the computer a win scores 100 + 3 ร— your seed margin and a draw 40. Who starts alternates every game, and one loss (or giving up) ends the streak.
  6. In Duo mode, Sun and Moon take turns on one device; Undo takes back the last sowing.
  7. Your run is saved after every sowing: choose Continue on the menu to pick it up later. Press ? for help at any time.

About Seed Sow

Seed Sow is the traditional two-row sowing game with a store at each end, rebuilt around streaks. Lift every seed from one of your six cups and sow them one per pit anticlockwise, into your own store but never your opponent's. Land the last seed in your store and you go again; land it in an empty cup on your side and you capture everything in the cup opposite. When one side runs out of seeds, the other banks what is left, and the bigger store wins. Each win against the computer is worth 100 points plus three times your seed margin, a draw is worth 40, and the first loss ends your run. Easy grabs whatever looks best right now, Medium looks four sowings ahead, and Hard searches nine sowings deep. Who sows first alternates every game, and a 5-seeds-per-cup setting makes for longer chains. Duo is a pass-and-play game for two people on one phone, tablet or keyboard.
