About this game
Harvest, prune and water in season; press your olives into oil and grow your grove.
In Olive Grove the year of a grove on an Aegean hillside turns as you play. In autumn you tap the ripe clusters to pick olives, in winter you prune the wild shoots, in spring you water the dry trees and in summer you catch the olive flies. Work done on time builds care, which lifts all your earnings; blossom or green olives knocked down out of season come off the next harvest. Spend your earnings on the olive press, table olives, bottling, new trees, workers and land, and when you are ready plant a new grove: your saplings keep raising your earnings.
How to play
- Tap the trees or run your finger over them: in autumn the ripe clusters bring money.
- Prune the shoots in winter, water the trees with a drop sign in spring, catch the flies in summer: care goes up.
- Buy machines, trees, workers and parcels in the Products, Grove and Land tabs; the crew works while you are away.
- Plant a new grove: everything starts again, your saplings stay and raise all your earnings.
Controls
- Tap or drag: do the job on a tree
- Keyboard: pick a tree with the arrows, touch it with Space or Enter
- Tabs at the bottom: products, grove, land and new grove
- Button on the goal card: collect the reward
- Esc or P: pause
Tips
- In spring and summer leave the unmarked trees alone: blossom or green olives fall and care drops.
- Care fades by itself; keep it high by doing every season's job.
- Grow the trees and the crew together: the slower side is the bottleneck.
Questions and answers
Is it free?
Yes, you can play it for free. There are no ads inside the game.
Do I earn while I am away?
Yes, your workers keep picking and the mill keeps turning. Time is measured by the server's clock; up to 8 hours of earnings a day pile up at half speed. The seasons only turn while you play.
What does planting a new grove do?
Your money, products, trees, crew and land start again but your saplings stay; each sapling adds 10 percent to all earnings.
