Afterbloom: Ink Puzzles

One drop. Two waves. A little bloom.
Afterbloom is a turn-based ink puzzle game about looking one wave ahead. Place coral or teal ink, predict how it will spread twice, and complete a small flower postcard. The best spot now may not be the spot you need at the end.

Play in 14 languages, with automatic language selection and an in-game language menu.

See the outcome before you commit
Tap a paper tile to preview your move. Compare the current board, the first spread, and the second spread before placing a drop. Tap the same tile again to commit. Dots and stripes distinguish the two ink colors alongside their hues.

48 puzzles across 8 chapters
Begin with the two-wave rule, then discover stones, absorbing tiles, spaces to keep empty, color barriers, and dry ink. Start in an empty margin or turn a stopped drop into a boundary. Each postcard asks you to read the board in a different way. Choose from unlocked puzzles within a chapter.

Think at your own pace
There is no timer or failure penalty. Read an observation clue, request a hint based on your current position, or undo a move to explore another idea. Previews, hints, and undo are part of the core game.

Your solution becomes a postcard
The positions and colors you finish with become coral flowers and teal leaves. Collect your postcards and replay their ink waves. Complete chapters to add flowers to your little garden.
