Get ready for three brand-new challenges that will get you in the mood for spooky season, plus a couple returning favorites like the pumpkin patch π
New #Primrows challenge debuts this week: βSpill the Teaβ!
This one brings jasmine and chysanthemum back to really bend the rules of when and how flowers grow. Pour yourself a cup of tea and give this a try at linktr.ee/tursiops#indieDev#puzzleGame#diceGame
This weekβs #Primrows challenge is the return of Rising Harvest!
This is a bit of a weird challenge where you climb a scoring ladder β it was actually one of the candidates for Quick Play before we settled on the simple 3-round structure.
Try it here: linktr.ee/tursiops#indieDev#diceGame
New #Primrows weekly challenge debuts today: Apples and Honey!
Weβre trying to bring in a fair share of world holidays you donβt see a lot of game events for into Primrows, like this one timed for Rosh Hashanah, we hope you like them!
Try it this week at linktr.ee/tursiops#indieDev#sudoku

This weekβs #Primrows weekly challenge is Through The Pavement!
Asphalt tiles keep you from pruning flowers, which makes this a great challenge for learning to spot new patterns and not just rely on your favorites.
Try it this week at: linktr.ee/tursiops#indieDev@tursiopsstudios.bsky.social
Here's the challenge schedule for September 2026! We have three brand-new fall-themed #Primrows challenges coming this month, plus two returning favorites.
Brand new #Primrows challenge this week: Prune With Care!

Try it all week: linktr.ee/tursiops#indieDev#diceGame#sudokuVariants
This weekβs #Primrows challenge is the return of Bingrows!
This bingo-inspired garden gives you a βfree squareβ wildcard in the center and challenges you to pay attention to the two big diagonals
Try it all week on your platform of choice: linktr.ee/tursiops#indieDev#diceGame#puzzleGame
New #Primrows monthly challenge: Chess Board!
Weβve already answered the question βwhat if you mash up Yatzy and Sudoku,β and now weβve invited chess pieces to the party!

Our lead dev Cathy just scored #6 in creativity and #9 overall for her new game Spinfluencer! It's a game of skill, timing, and observation, with serious social commentary bundled up into an absurd tongue-in-cheek narrative. She even recorded a behind-the-scenes vlog to get a glimpse of her process.
We've got the perfect way to beat July's scorching heat: Staying in and playing our exclusive challenge for this month only, along with two brand-new weekly challenges!
#Primrows

Question for fans!
If there were a holiday megamix challenge, which is more appealing: more focus on global or familiar-to-American-audience holidays?
I'm torn between adding in Eid and Diwali flowers, or Valentine's and St. Patrick's Day flowers. Either way will make for a fun challenge!
#Primrows
Sometimes I get midway through June and am like "oh wow its Pride"
however this month at the strike of midnight it was a OMG PRIIIIDEEEE
Anywho- this month's challenge really helps with that excitement :3
#Primrows
