About An Apple a Day
I stumbled across An Apple a Day on a whim, and it turns out there’s nothing quite like spending your afternoon tending to an ever-growing orchard from the comfort of your couch. You step into the shoes of a friendly caretaker whose sole mission is to harvest apples, sort them by ripeness and type, and then deliver them to sleepy townsfolk who depend on your produce for everything from pies to potions. There’s no grand villain here—just you, your trusty basket, and rows of entwined branches waiting to be pruned.
What really hooks you is how each level tosses a new twist into the mix. One day you’re racing against a ticking clock to pack boxes for a festival, the next you’re juggling orders that require golden apples, which only show up when you fill certain combos. There’s also a clever bit of strategy in deciding when to upgrade your tools—should you get a sturdier ladder to reach higher branches, or a specialized basket that sorts fruit automatically? Balancing those small choices is where the game finds its sweet spot, keeping you engaged without ever feeling overwhelming.
Beneath the simple core of harvesting and delivering, An Apple a Day has this warm, watercolor-inspired art style that almost makes you smell the orchard air. The soundtrack is light and playful, with soft piano and plucked strings that somehow make the most mundane task of picking fruit feel cozy. Whether you’re sneaking in a five-minute play session on your commute or settling down for a longer stretch, it’s one of those titles that’s equal parts relaxing and rewarding—like taking a quick stroll past rows of apple trees on a crisp, sunlit morning.
