Garbage Garden

Garbage Garden is a fast-paced arcade score attack game starring Gwen the Gardener, on a never-ending mission to turn a filthy wasteland into a blooming paradise.

Loop around the tiled floor of the landfill to convert it into a meadow, boosting your score multiplier with every green patch you create. Pile up falling garbage and clear it by enclosing it in a loop — the bigger the pile, the bigger the reward. But let it sit too long, and maggots hatch — touch one, and it’s game over.

Occasionally, a rare Power Flower appears — grab it to clear the screen and gain some breathing room.
