The number represents how many other gardens a person can see while standing in his garden. The object of the game is to remove hedges so that all the gardeners can see the correct number of other gardens.
Neighbors 1.1 - the game field is made up of rows and columns of housing lots with a number in each lot. The number represents how many neighbors that lot has. A house is a neighbor if it is to the right, left, up or down from another lot. The object of the game is to place houses(with the mouse button) on the lots so that all lots have the correct number of neighbors.
Bee Hive 1.1 - the game field is made up of a honey comb with a number between every group of 4 combs. The number represents how many bees are in the combs surrounding the number. The object of the game is to place bees (with the mouse button) in the combs so that all combs have the correct number of bees.
There are 4 levels of difficulty for each game. The first two levels have 50 and 100 puzzles to solve. The easy levels are good for teaching numbers, math and problem solving to kids age 8 and up. When you play the hardest levels there are 500 tournament puzzles per level and your goal is to complete as many as you can. The results are saved so you can quit and come back another day.
