The lake has dried up, and only you can bring it back! Fill your jugs at the well, stack them high on your back and throw them into the empty lake. Every trip makes the water rise, and the valley wakes up around it: grass and flowers grow back, fish return, ducks arrive and villagers move in.

Spend your coins to build a second well, a workshop, a helper hut, windmill pumps, a fishing dock, a fish market, cottages and a fountain. Upgrade your backpack, jugs and running shoes, hire helpers to carry water for you, and catch fish (even rare golden ones) to sell at the market.

Fill the lake to 100% to restore the valley, then take the ferry to the next one. Travel from Willow Valley to Sunset Canyon, Pinewood Hollow, Frostpeak Basin, Lotus Bay and beyond, where every lake is bigger than the last.

Features:

  • Relaxing collect-and-fill gameplay with satisfying stacking and pouring
  • A living valley that changes as the lake fills: greenery, wildlife, rain and rainbows
  • 10+ buildings to unlock and upgrades for you and your helpers
  • Fishing, golden fish and a fish market
  • Five themed valleys, then endless new lakes
  • Daily gifts, daily quests, treasure chests and a Golden Hour coin boost
  • Fun hats to collect
  • Progress saves automatically
