About Leaf Drift
Leaf Drift is a calm colour-matching reflex game. Leaves in six autumn shades float down the screen, and a colour swatch at the top tells you which shade to collect.
How to play Leaf Drift
- Press Start raking. The bar at the top shows leaves collected on the left, the target colour in the middle and baskets left on the right.
- Tap leaves that match the colour in the swatch.
- Tapping a leaf of any other shade costs one of your 13 baskets.
- The target colour can change at any moment, so glance at the swatch often.
- Leaves that fall past cost nothing. The game ends when all 13 baskets are used up.
Scoring
| Action | Points |
|---|---|
| Leaf of the target colour | +1 leaf |
| Leaf of another colour | −1 basket |
| Leaf falls past | no change |
End-of-game ranks
| Score | Rank |

Tips for a higher score
- The six shades are Maple, Birch, Fern, Plum, Berry and Straw. Berry and Maple, and Birch and Straw, are the easiest to confuse — look twice.
- Misses are free, so skip any leaf you aren't sure about.
- Re-check the swatch after every few taps; the change is silent.
- About half of all leaves match the target, so there is no need to chase leaves near the bottom.
