Geode & Growth

A miniature terrarium that grows plants and crystals in real time — and keeps growing wherever you are, signal or not.

Two kinds of slow

Most idle games are about numbers going up. This one is about a single small scene quietly becoming more itself.

Moss spreads across the soil. Succulents open. Flowering stalks rise, and vines climb the inside of the glass. Meanwhile — on a slower clock — faceted crystal formations push up from a seed point beneath them, until the dome holds a full amethyst cluster.

Plants reach their final stage in about seven real days. Crystals take around nine. There is no currency, no score, and no way to lose.

A fully grown terrarium: a large faceted amethyst cluster surrounded by succulents, with vines climbing the inside of the glass dome.

From sprout to geode

A newly started terrarium, nearly empty, with small moss clumps and a tiny crystal seed on bare soil.

Day one. Mostly soil and patience.

The same terrarium after about a week, full of plants and a large crystal cluster.

About a week later, untouched.

Free to grow. Pay once to take it anywhere.

Free

One terrarium, growing whenever you open the app with a connection.

Offline, your progress is held — never lost — until you reconnect.

Geode & Growth Anywhere

A single one-time purchase. Your terrarium grows from elapsed time with no connection at all — on a flight, underground, in airplane mode — and you can keep more than one at once.

Not a subscription. No consumables, no currency, no ads.

What it doesn't do

No accounts or sign-in. No leaderboards, friends, or social features. No advertising. No analytics, attribution, or crash-reporting SDKs. No notifications nagging you back. No data collection of any kind — there is no server for it to go to.
