Want to see it without committing to playing the game? This video shows the story line of the party room level but skips the puzzles. I’m not that far along, but there is apparently a subplot revolving around the cat Austin adopts at some point in the game.īut the biggest pro is that someone somewhere in Homescape game creation seems to have a clogging connection! The player chooses home decor from multiple options of rugs, wallpaper patterns, furniture pieces, etc., giving each mansion a custom look. Austin’s actions and comments in the background add to the entertainment value of the game. Be sure to turn off the in app purchase option if children are playing this game on your phone.Īlso, I wish home reno projects went this quickly and smoothly in real life! Run out of lives on a difficult puzzle and you must wait an hour or pay real money before trying again.ĬONS: The in-app purchases are annoying and would quickly add up if I kept myself stocked with coins and boosters.

Good luck with that! Those bonuses are expen$ive compared to the number of coins you earn per puzzle! If a player fails to complete the puzzle quest within the allowed number of moves (and does not have enough coins to purchase more turns), there exists a limited ability to try the puzzle again from the beginning. Coins allow the player to purchase extra turns or boosters to help him/her win at the puzzles. Every task Austin completes requires a certain number of stars. PLAY: The player solves puzzles to earn coins and stars. Austin decides to renovate the home to make his parents fall in love with it again. His parents (William and Olivia) drop the news that they plan to sell the house and move into an apartment. PREMISE: Austin the butler (same protagonist from the Gardenscapes game) visits his childhood home to find the mansion dilapidated. This match-3 puzzle game progresses with increasing levels of difficulty. Homescapes, a spin-off of Gardenscapes, was released by Playrix in 2017. Why? The game contains a surprise clogging reference! Shout out to high school classmate Aaron, my toughest opponent! However, a screenshot from Fancy Free Clogger Dustin expanded my gaming repertoire at least temporarily to include Homescapes.

Regarding phone games, I haven’t progressed beyond Words with Friends.
