THE FIELD GUIDE

Grow something
together.

Route the sunlight from the sun on the left to the gate on the right, passing through all three flowers.

  1. Bring your people.Create a room for 2–6 players. Share the code or invite link. Use your own phones or laptops; no accounts needed. Play in person or on a voice call.
  2. Turn your tiles.Tap a tile marked “YOURS” to rotate it clockwise. Your color and name mark your pieces. Tap a teammate’s tile to ping it.
  3. Share your secret.Your clue cards describe a teammate’s tiles. Tell them the coordinate and directions: “B2 connects North and East.” North is up; East is right.
  4. Follow the light.Connected paths glow gold. Bloom all three flowers and reach the exit to finish a garden. Complete three gardens together.
Take your time. There is no countdown. Earn 3 stars for up to 36 turns without hints, 2 for up to 60 turns, otherwise 1. Using a hint caps that garden at 2 stars. All players share the same score.

If someone disconnects, their tiles become available to everyone after 25 seconds. The next active player becomes guide. Refreshing the same tab restores your session. Rooms expire after 24 hours.

About this garden.

Signal Garden is an original cooperative puzzle built with OpenAI tools. Designed for friends and classmates aged 13+.

Use a nickname, not your full name. Your nickname, moves, and preset messages are visible to people in your room. There is no open text chat, advertising, or payment.

Room data is stored on the game’s server for up to 24 hours, then becomes inaccessible and is removed during later room creation. A session token is stored in this browser tab to reconnect you. Request-rate counters use a hash of the network address and expire within two minutes; expired counters are removed on later room creation.

Hosting is provided by Cloudflare, which may collect operational and security information under its own policies. Never share your session token. Anyone with a room code may join its lobby.
