About Echo Garden

Echo Garden is a game of listening and remembering. Four flowers sit in a garden, and each one plays its own soft note. Mitsy plays a short pattern of flowers, and you play it back. It is a repeat-the-pattern memory game.

Each round adds one more flower to the pattern. A slip is never the end: the pattern simply plays again. There is no clock, and no flashing, just slow glows.

  • Free to play
  • Phone, tablet and computer

How to play

  1. Press Start. Watch and listen as the flowers glow in order.
  2. When it says it is your turn, tap the same flowers in the same order.
  3. Get it right and the pattern grows by one flower. Get one wrong and Mitsy plays it again, and it counts as a mistake.
  4. Use Hear it again whenever you want the pattern repeated.
  5. Choose a short, medium or long game. On a keyboard, press 1 to 4 for the flowers.

Mitsy's cosy tips

Friendly hints for Echo Garden

  • Say the colours quietly as you watch, like "red, gold, gold, blue".
  • Hum the notes. The tune can be easier to remember than the order.
  • Group the flowers in twos and threes, like a phone number.
  • Mitsy's tip: if you lose your place, ask for it again. That costs nothing.

Frequently asked questions

Simple answers for a calm play session

Do I need sound?

No. Each flower has a number and a colour, and glows when it is played. The notes just make it nicer.

How does the honey work?

Mitsy counts your mistakes. None gives three spoonfuls, one or two gives two, and more gives one. Hearing the pattern again does not count. Ten spoonfuls fill his jar.

Is my best score saved?

Yes, on this device only. Your scores and honey stay in your browser, and nothing is sent to us.

Do I need to download anything or sign up?

No. It runs in your browser, with no accounts.

Is this a sequence memory game?

Yes. You watch a pattern of flowers and notes, then repeat it from memory. It grows by one flower each round.
