A calm plant puzzle. Restore rare specimens, learn them, keep them.
Leafbound is a quiet puzzle game about plants. Each specimen arrives as a botanical plate, broken into pieces. You restore it — sliding pieces into place until the plant comes back together — and the plate opens into a short field note: what it is, how to recognise it, and where it grows. Then it is yours, filed into a personal herbarium you build one plant at a time. There are no timers, no lives, no energy bars and no way to lose. Puzzles wait for you. RESTORE THE PLATE Every plant is a hand-painted botanical illustration cut into a grid. Swap pieces to rebuild it. Early plates are gentle; later ones are large, detailed and genuinely difficult — repeated leaves, thin stems and subtle colour are the real challenge, not a clock. LEARN SOMETHING REAL Finish a plate and the plant explains itself: one identification clue, one fact about how it lives, and deeper notes on family, native range and conservation if you want them. Written plainly, checked against botanical sources, and never front-loaded — you always solve first and read after. BUILD A HERBARIUM Restored plants are catalogued into a collection wall you can pan, zoom and share. Watch it fill. THIRTEEN COLLECTIONS TO OPEN • Meadow — wildflowers, grasses and pollinator plants • Forest Floor — ferns, mosses and understory plants • Desert — cacti, succulents and drought survivors • Carnivores — traps, pitchers and hungry leaves • Ancient Lineages — ginkgo, horsetails and living fossils • Tropics — orchids, vines and rainforest giants • Night Bloomers — flowers that open after dark • Wetland — reeds, lilies and marsh plants • Alpine — cushion plants and high-altitude survivors • River & Stream — bankside and freshwater plants • Coast — dunes, cliffs and salt-spray survivors • Prairie — grasses and flowers of the open plains • Tundra — low-growing survivors of the frozen north More collections are being pressed. A SPECIMEN EVERY DAY One plant arrives daily, drawn from thirty rare finds that never appear in the collections — titan arum, ghost orchid, Middlemist's red. Catalogue it and earn seeds; seeds open plants ahead of their turn. Miss a day and nothing is taken away from you. NO ADS. EVER. No advertising, no video rewards, no pop-ups. Nothing interrupts a puzzle. WORKS COMPLETELY OFFLINE Leafbound requests no internet access at all. Everything runs on your device. No account, no sign-up, no data collected, nothing to sync. Play on a plane, on the underground, anywhere. MADE FOR CALM Warm paper, soft sound, gentle haptics. Reduced-motion, reduced-sound and reduced-haptic settings are built in. Educational content only.
