MandrakeGirls Garden of Secret for Android
I love this game, no matter how long you are away from it you don't have to worry about loosing anything, some games if you are gone for too long you loose out on things but in this game that's not the case. It's a very calming and cute causal mandrake game :D
When I download a game i DO expect ads but to me a flashing white banner at the bottom of the screen saying "phone in danger click now" makes me absolutely livid. That is click bait Trojan virus looking bullshit and it's unacceptable. This is my second time playing and I was hoping updates made the game more interesting but I will be immediately uninstalling because of the shady ads. Not acceptable. You have lost my business forever. I refuse to have that kind of advertisement on my device. Period.
A cute game! I am not usually a big fan of cellphone games but I find this game to be alright. I find that it does get boring after a while though....especially when it becomes harder to get new mandrakes without spending a lot of money.
My question is this: Why entice others to give five stars in exchange of better content if you need to work harder to absolve the lower ratings with better content?
Downloaded this when I was sick and couldn't focus enough for a normal game. Really pleased with how cute and relaxing it is. I'll likely keep playing occasionally even after getting better..!
:D this game is so precious. I just wish we had more interaction with the girls, or they did things together. Its relaxing but also very boring.My other complaint is the price of the stories...they are REALLY HIGH, and they are one of the best part of this game. Coins are very slow to earn, so it may take a while to open a single story when you get past the 2nd and 3rd tiers of the house. And I wish I couldn't see the illustrations my friends set as their main. It spoils them.
It's a lot of waiting and getting the 1 minute plants so far, but the stories can be soooo cute. It just takes a little while to collect up money for me since the short time plants only offer 1 coin...I just hope it gets easier to collect them. Edit: I've watched a few videos to get stars, and I didn't get them. And when I tried to download a game for stars, it let me download and run the game, but when i went back to this game for stars, it said the game i downloaded wasn't available for offers...
I've been playing for 5-10 minutes a day for 9 months now. Durring the first month the pace was just right and I played a lot more earning about 40 mandrakes. Afterthat the pace dropped to an average of 1 mandrake a month. Some of that is probably due to a drop in play time, but seriously, it's been 3 months since my last new mandrake. And even though I play every day, the daily prize is reset at about day 4 nearly every time so I hardly ever get day 7 prize. I wish I hadn't spent money on this game.
3/5 stars because I don't like how they incentivized you to rate full stars to get something miniscule. Those in it for long term playing will find that you can eventually grab everything without spending a single dime. It's too bad that once you get past a certain threshold of mandrakes, the drops for new ones just plummets and then it really forces you to pay the long game or the pay game. I clocked in to the game at every hour to harvest and even then, the wall was still high. YMMV.
Very cute little game with lots of adorable characters to collect. Takes some time, but it's pretty easy and straight forward. Only problem I have is that I haven't figured out what the hearts are for. Does require internet to play, so I highly recommend playing with Wi-fi so as to not use all your data up.
Just as the title says- while its not that time consuming its rather cute and the stories it comes with are extra cute! /just earning the mons for them are not exactly easy/ another good thing is that its not entirely money based which is always looked happily upon! But in overall I think my only main concern is that I lag just a teensy bit, but that could just be my phone LOL!
I absolutely love this game. My girlfriend plays it on my phone while she cuddles me. She loves gardening and anime so it worked out just perfect. No pressure to buy stars or anything. It's so relaxing to the point where she fell asleep waiting for her flowers to bloom. The only thing is the waiting time but even then it's worth it! I would totally recommend it! :3
Love this game, but there are a few things. It looks like things such as planting seeds and using hearts were changed but the instructions still mention them. And it would be much better to be able to play offline. It is a very sweet game, I love the pixel art especially.
It a really good at time passer, especially when you're bored. I love how it's easy to get coins and to get good, all you have to do get lucky :). However, I do feel that the achievements could get better, and the time for the rarity of the mandrakes is exaggerated. I mean, 1-20 min for one stars, I guess that's okay, but and over an hour for two stars? That's a bit silly. Overall, it's a good game!
I loved the graphics, and it's really relaxing and adorable, though a little slow.No pressure to buy anything.My only issue is with the updating and reconfiguring every time the app starts up or you get a new connection. I am so impatient to play haha.
You're a gardener and you grow things that actually turn out to be females. You start with basic growing pots but can increase their level and grow even rarer mandrake plants. Always nice when you get a new one.
I really like the little anime madrakes, they each make little unique sounds. I didn't even know there was a deep and actually interesting story mode too! The only really bad thing is the ads.
The art and animations are really nice, and it's a fun way to pass time. My only problem with the app is that it's a bit hard to get the input box to come up when entering your name upon starting
Really needs faster progression. Day 3 and I've only found 10 different girls. I'm out 9of story and just waiting. Either I have the worst luck or this game just has bad pacing.
Like everyone had said, it's a very cute game. I've always liked collecting but this game is already beginning to get tiring. Dora, the most common mandrake, keeps showing up and doesn't make it easy to get the others since you have to keep checking back every minute.
Like an in depth explanation of how hearts work and wild mandrake. Also an offline version, with all the data we have to download to play it at all, i would think it'd be playable offline. And something to upgrade the amount of coins you get from digging up the girls.
The Mandrake Girls are so cute! Graphics are really nice. The downside is that it's really random to which ones you get so it can be a waiting game which mean coins maybe hard to come by in the beginning.
The illustrations are absolutely adorable. The sprites are cute and clean, although the sound effects the mandrakes make when harvesting get a taaad annoying after a while, but nothing so bad tjat it'd effect the game. This is a game of patience, given it goes by real time, it takes time to build up coins for stories and upgrades, but given that it's free, I'd say that's a pretty good price for the quality put into it!
I download this game before and was irritated by the dlow.pace but tgen i came back and ave it a seckns chance and found its mechanics to be quirky albeit a bit slow paced. The community is fun and funny and the artwork is rewarding when you finally get enough to unlock it so give it a try
This is the game I have been looking for. I am not a big fan of intensely actioned games on my phone because my phone is quite old and I do not want to expend energy to play games while I have tons of work to do everyday. This game executes many aspects well and I applaud that. Beautiful art, calming and varying music, and unique gameplay keep me going back for more. The game is completely free and is a game that you check on a few times a day to pass the time. Some mini games and more music would be nice.
Cute, relaxing game that has a really cute design. I wish it were available offline, but besides that 10/10 would recommend ^-^
This is a great game to pass the time and it is very easy to learn. The mandrakes are all very cute! There's no pressure to use the store since every mandrake can be acquired at some point (you just have to be very lucky-- but that's the fun part!). You never know what mandrake you'll get next!
Such an addicting time sink. Got some friends to play with me so that I never run out of watercans. Yisssssss
I really enjoy the cute girls and the simi slow pace. It's fun and keeps you coming back with the things to do and the rewards they give. I actually use this to help me relax for bed as I have problems keeping my mind from wondering. This gives me something to focus on without my mind being stimulated enough to keep me awake.
I love this game!!! Is a fun and relaxing game that you can play whenever you want with no pressure. I love the cute little stories you get to unlock. It's a bit slow since you need to collect more and more money at a very slow pace but still fun. I just wish you can interact with the girls more or at least put cute mini games like pull the weeds or something plant related.
super adorable game! its a calm and relaxing game that you can just play casually, however, everythings a bit expensive so you have to have the patience to save up coins. stars on the other hand, seem rare to get unless you do the free surveys/download of apps.
A fun game, mostly smooth, only small errors like typos and minor lag.
a cute, endearing game that is great for down time! the art is lovely and the house really makes it worth it.
The game itself is fine; I think it'd be better if 1 minute mandrakes weren't so common. The main thing is, would there be any way to decrease loading time upon the game being opened? If I'm using this app to waste a few minutes it isn't too helpful when it requires a 30 second investment at least before I can do anything. EDIT: Never mind, the game told me I'd get 100 stars for reviewing, and then gave me 30. Fix this "typo" or actually fulfil your promise.
I have depression and anxiety and this game really helps me calm down when I have a panic attack. The music is soothing and the mindless tapping gives me something to focus on. I love this game.
This app is adorable, and great to occupy time if you're ever bored. They're all very cute and have lovely little stories along with them! It's a very smooth app and it's definitely obvious that some time went into making it.
Although there are ways around that, to give a fun, well rounded game that is perfect to flip to for brain break . loading times can be a but long, but far from unreasonable. :D
Good app for time wasting. Adorable plant girls. Squashing ladybugs for money. What's not to love?
But it's super cute and I like it. The story animations are adorable. Fun little thing to check on once in a while and a good way to kill time, especially since you can flick the game off at a moment's notice and not lose anything.

I have had my flower pots fully upgraded for several months. I play every day. Why can't I discover new mandrakes? I have three missing mandrakes in every pot! Is the game broken?
