But when they arrive they see Emma in a ruined dress crying in the middle of a flooded lawn. There are only a few hours left before the ceremony, the previous agency refuses to help, but the worst thing is - the groom has disappeared! Will they have to cancel the wedding?

Jess and Austin are not afraid of the challenges and are ready to save the day!

You'll need a special currency - banknotes!

Compasses

Compasses pointing different directions

**Compasses** are special Elements in Homescapes. They have 1 or 2 Needles which rotate clockwise each move. You will need to match on that side. Here are some other things to mind:

1. In Levels where Compasses only have the red Needle, make a match or activate Power-ups next to the glowing side to collect it.
2. In some Levels, Compasses also have a blue Needle. You need to make two matches or activate two Power-ups next to such Compass to collect it.

### Tips on Compasses

* Using Paper Planes and Paper Plane combos is best suited for Compass Levels only.
* The Glove does not affect the Needle when the Compass is moved.
* In Levels with other Level Goals, collect Compasses first. Focus on making more Combos to collect the Compasses faster.

## Pets and Animals

These are known pets present in the game, owned by friends and family.

## Trivia

Barrow Family

Homescapes

***Homescapes*** is a casual free-to-play match-3 puzzle game developed and launched by Russian-Irish Playrix in 2017 as a successor to their 2016 match-3 game, *Gardenscapes*. The storyline narrates the protagonist, Austin the Butler, and his attempts to restore his childhood home. However, to renovate the mansion, you will need stars earned through levels with different objectives.

## Gameplay

Launched a year after *Gardenscapes*, *Homescapes* follows the adventure of the main character, Austin, who returns to and restores his childhood mansion. He tries to convince his parents not to sell the house. Helping him, players receive tasks in the To-do list they can tackle by solving match-3 puzzles. Assignments range from installing new stairs and choosing new flooring to petting a cat. Every level, players receive in-game currency and a star necessary for tasks. Coins are needed to buy lives and power-ups for puzzle levels or customize the mansion with more than 100,000 design patterns. Most everything is nonrestrictive, allowing players to customize however they feel fits in for them best.
Gameplay is similar to its predecessor, Gardenscapes. A board of each puzzle includes colorful tiles — books, bowties, buttons, cups, lamps, teapots, and others. A player swaps two adjacent items to match three or more of them.

## Development

Gameplay combines match-3 challenges with a visual novel. In an 18-month development period, three protagonists and over 30 supporting characters were created, whose stories appear along the game process. Leveling up by solving challenges, a player unlocks new chapters of a story and watches how Austin interacts with his parents and childhood friends; he also receives letters from them with bonuses. As of now, *Homescapes* had 8770 match-3 levels and 10 unique mini-games.

After release, the game was repeatedly updated, one of the first add-ons being the Daily bonus. In following years, developers have built a robust framework of recurring or bonus events such as Flying High, Cake o’clock, Paper Plane Generator, Flint’s Adventure, etc.

## Release

* *Homescapes* was soft-launched on July 26, 2017 in Canada.
* It was officially released/published on September 2017 on the App Store and the Amazon Appstore.
	+ However, it was released roughly a month before on Google Play.
* It was released on Windows and MacOS in 2020.
* Finally, *Homescapes* was released on the Huawei AppGallery and Samsung Galaxy Store in 2021.

## Download

The game is available on several platforms.

## Trivia

* A prequel, *Gardenscapes* was released in 2016 before **Homescapes**, possibly taking place before it.
* This game is possibly a flashback of *Gardenscapes*, as in *Gardenscapes*, Austin says, near the beginning, "As you can see, the mansion has been repaired." In contrast, this could be a different mansion, since the nearby house is yellow but the real mansion's facade is teal.

**Cascade:** Art of Origami | Chocolate Sophistication | Expedition Fever

### Time

Fri- Sun

Take part in a new temporary event: **Gold Run**! The event consists of several stages. Get rewards for completing tasks like collecting pieces and power-ups, using boosters, and etc. Complete all the tasks to get the amazing grand prize of 25,000 coins!

Apple

Collect apples by making matches or exploding power-ups next to the platter.

**Apple platters** are immovable major containers that appear very regularly in **hard levels**. They cover 4 tiles each. Make matches or use power-ups to collect the apples. Platters contain 8 apples and will clear once they hold no more.

### Tips on Apples

#### Matching

* If one piece touches the platter, you collect one apple. If two pieces touch it, you collect two.
	+ It is impossible to collect three apples from a platter with a single match, since platters do not span 3 tiles, only 2 in each direction.
* If a platter is hindering carpet/covering tiles, clear it as soon as possible.

#### Power-ups

* Rockets and the plane + rocket combo will collect two apples. Planes alone only collect one.
* Rainbow balls can remove 1-2 apples depending on how many pieces were next to the platter.
* Bombs will gather three to four apples.
* The plane + rainbow ball collects at most 4 apples from each platter.
* The rocket + rainbow ball and bomb + rainbow ball combos can remove many apples from platters at a time.
* The rainbow ball + rainbow ball combo will remove 4 apples from every platter on the current board.

The Double Paper Planes booster isn't working

The way this booster works can cause some confusion at first, but don't worry—it's actually quite simple 🤗

The Double Paper Planes booster ✈️ can be activated before the start of a level. Just tap its icon in the window before the start. This booster does not show up on the field at the beginning of the level but you'll automatically get twice as many Planes in the level after it's activated. And if you match two Planes together, you'll launch five planes, each with its own target 🎯
Paper Plane Generator Event

**Bonus:** Above the Clouds | Flint's Adventures
**Team:** Team Chest | Team Tournament
**Cascade:** Art of Origami | Chocolate Sophistication | Expedition Fever

## Paper Plane Generator

The Paper Plane Generator is a regularly occurring, time-limited event hosted by the talented artist : Andy Tanner.

While the event is on, you can charge the Generator to release Paper Planes onto the field. To charge the Generator, you need to activate power-ups on the field.

Beat levels on your first try to make the Generator even more powerful! The more powerful it is, the more Paper Planes it releases when it's charged.

***- Be careful: if you lose a level, the Generator will switch off. To switch it back on, you need to beat a level :***

 In a row: 2 levels
 In a row: 3 or + levels

## Generator Tips

* Rainbow balls, and Rainbow Ball combos charge the generator faster.
* Completing two levels in a row helps to charge 6 planes at a time.
* Making more combos helps charge the generator faster.

### *Important Note*

* The event is open to all players at Level 31 or higher.
* The Paper Planes Generator is not available during the Furry Tale event.
Left Wing

The **Left Wing** is the second area Austin restores in the Mountain Estate and the 23rd area in Homescapes.

## Plot

They find mysterious stones in objects, such as a clock and dragon statue. Austin places the stones in a device that reveals stairs leading down to a secret room. A stone reflects sunlight onto another, revealing another room turned into a bedroom and storage. The storyline ends with Austin and his family discovering another long-lost relative via portrait.

### Characters

Many characters appeared anad participated in this area, such as:

*TBA*
Flower Pots

Sprouting Levels

*Not to be confused with Cooking Pots.*

**Flower Pots** are Obstacles in Homescapes. These cover an area of the field. Make up to three matches to grow Flowers in the Pots. When an entire group of Flowers have sprouted, they disappear!

### Tips on Flower Pots

* Rockets are the best way to grow Flowers.
* Flower Pots aren't as needful to remove. Unless a major portion is blocked off, you can still play on the field.
* You will almost always need to remove the flowers when they appear. They tend to block goals, such as un-carpeted tiles, entire sections to a board, portals, donuts, etc.

The **Garage** is the sixth area Austin renovates in the Mansion. It bases around William's reconnection with Raul, his old mechanic who would assist him in races.

## Plot

William gets a notice from Lisa about the upcoming car parade. Austin remembers William's old Forsche, dented many years ago, being in the old Garage, where the butler starts sorting junk. He finds a magazine displaying the image of two professional racers—William and Raul Gonzales. Austin then calls Raul and tells him what happened. Raul helps restore the practical jalopy and helps William prepare for the parade.

Meanwhile, Austin arranges a garage sale with Olivia. He and Katherine replenish Olivia's old fruit trees. Olivia's tasty jam becomes the sale highlight. He invites Andy and modernizes the Garage for Parade Day.

But the day before the Event, the notorious William decides to drive the unfinished car and nearly destroys it. Raul helps and motivates a now hopeless William. Austin gets busy restoring the outer areas. Finally, parade day comes, and William wins the race!

Jam Jars

Jam of varying colors and an empty Jar

**Jam Jars** are Container Elements in Homescapes. Unlike most other Container Elements, Jam Jars can not be prematurely collected with Power-ups. This means you have to make a match to the Jar first. Later collect the filled Jar by matching the same color or activating Power-ups.

### Tips on Jam Jars

* If you make a match on an empty jar with Pieces of specific color, the next one can be made after many Moves.
* The best Power-ups for filled Jam Jars are Paper Planes and Rainbow Balls.
Flint's Adventures Event

**Bonus:** Above the Clouds | **Flint's Adventures**
**Team:** Team Chest | Team Tournament
**Cascade:** Art of Origami | Chocolate Sophistication | Expedition Fever

## Flint's Adventures

Flint's Adventures is a recurring time-limited event in Homescapes, where boosters are rewarded for completing levels on your first try.

As you complete the next few levels on your first try the number of boosters you get increases.If a level could *not* be completed on your first try, you go back to the previous jar.

**Note:**

* This event is available to players over level 31.
* Bonuses are only awarded for beating the main chain of levels or levels in the Tournament of Champions.
* Once you reach the biggest jar, you keep that bonus until you lose a level or until the event finishes.
* If a level starts with a tutorial, the bonuses are awarded after the tutorial is over.
* Your progress from previous Flint's Adventures events doesn't get saved.
Oil

Get rid of the Oil by making matches or using power-ups!

**Oil** is a fluid element in Homescapes. Unlike suds, this element does not pose a major threat, but you have to match on it to clear it.

Its non-spreading counterpart is the water bucket.

### Tips on Oil

* Oil is *always* a level goal.
* Boxes, jelly, and other such obstacles block Oil's spread.
	+ Mobile elements, such as cookies and donuts, can also cover oil. These must be removed or brought down first before the oil can be removed.
* Sometimes, pieces in ice or chains are on oil. If one makes a match with that piece, the oil will directly clear.
* Rockets, Bombs, and Rainbow Balls are most effective with oil.
* Not a single carpet/oil, suds/oil, or tiles/oil level exists. Due to this, it is an element rather than an obstacle.

### How to collect/remove

Open the pitcher to spread Oil to at most 9 tiles

## Oil Pitcher

In some levels, **oil pitchers** serve as oil containments. Each pitcher spreads oil in a 3x3 board space unless boxes, jelly, etc. occupy some of those spaces, or the spaces do not exist. Make one or two matches next to the pitcher. Then clear the spilled oil.

Raul Gonzales

Raul, the best mechanic in town!

Raul and William have been best friends since Bill's racing days. Raul always serviced William's car and got it ready for races. Without a doubt, he helped William keep his place among the top racers. Together they traveled the world: Monte Carlo, São Paulo, Kuala Lumpur — you name it!

As a team, they developed quite a few traditions to help keep their edge. Once, right before the start of a race, the gear box in William's car jammed, but Raul was able to fix it at the last moment while sitting on an old folding stool. Almost in a panic, William set off so quickly that he overcame the other drivers and kept the lead right to the end of the race. Since that day, the little folding stool became their good luck charm and it went everywhere with the two friends.

Raul loves all things car! And car repair is his ultimate passion. He can take a car apart into a thousand small details, put it back together, and not leave a single detail out of place!

Raul has a daughter who works as a surgeon in another town. He's very proud of her, and she always says she takes after him, the only difference being that he fixes cars and she fixes people.

### *Stories from under the hood*

William's story of how he met his dear friend, Raúl:

*"I was just starting my racing career back then. One day I couldn’t get my car to move an inch — the clutch had given out, and it was right before a race! I started panicking because winning that race would be my ticket to the Grand Prix! Of course, all the regular mechanics on site were busy, but someone called up Raúl. He was so young, and I thought, “he probably doesn’t know the first thing about cars!”*
But Raúl got my car back in shape before I even had time to say a word! I won that race in the end and invited my new friend out for a coffee to say thank you. That’s how our friendship started."

Raúl's secret of how his friendship with William has survived through thick and thin:

*"It’s true that me and my compadre William started spending less and less time together once we settled down. And after Billy crashed his car, it seemed as if he didn’t want to show his face to me at all! Madre mía, I still can’t believe we lost touch with each other! Thanks to his son, Austin, we finally reunited. That boy helped us understand how important old friends are. Now we enjoy getting together to drink mate on a nice evening and reminisce about our big races. It’s great to spend time with my friend again."*

Bedroom

**Austin's Bedroom** (or just the bedroom) is a minor location in Homescapes and the first room Austin renovates in the mansion. Players of past Seasons of Wonders have several exclusive features.

## Plot

Austin Barrow was feeling quite homesick, so he revisits his family mansion but is shocked to see it in ruin. While waiting for his parents, Austin shows a minigame for the player to try and earn one star. After that, the player may proceed to the real match-3 game.

He decides to renovate his bedroom as a place to keep his belongings. Childhood friend Katherine Broom visits and gives spices to Olivia, Austin's mom. Courier Lisa then delivers his parrot, Captain Flint, whom he forgot at the airport. The day ends with Austin restoring the majority of his bedroom, but not without learning the house is on the verge of being sold.

**NOTE:** The desktop is refurnished on day 5 of the kitchen.
The goldfish is ordered on day 2 of the party room.

Captain Flint

**Captain Flint** is a main character in the game Homescapes. He is Austin's parrot, and this old sea bird's name couldn't fit him better! He's very talkative and always throws around pir-r-rate words, not to mention orders to cast off, drop anchor, or seize a treasure chest. But that doesn't mean Austin got his parrot from some bounty hunter.

Captain Flint just loves pirate movies! Since Austin enjoys adventure movies himself, Captain Flint has had plenty of opportunities to pick up that particular brand of vocabulary.

The bird is also a big fan of crackers, which he thinks are much more valuable than dirty old quarters. Austin is always concerned the parrot will gain obesity on such diet, but he can't turn down his favorite pet. And that’s why his pockets are always filled with crackers.

## Trivia

* Austin lost him at the Airport. He is mischievous and often created a mess at the bedroom. He feels lonely when Austin is busy with the party room. He gets a companion - a pet Fish.
* He has the ability to speak, which is often seen in the end of every day. His speech however, is usually limited to pirate terms, and his favorite things to say are-"Shiver me timbers" and "Hi mate!"
* He is the main highlight for Flint's Adventures.

Notices

Remember, if you are posting a comment, a new article, etc., there are a few notices we want to point out. Go ahead, read on. . .

### Don’t do these:

* **Use any profanities, swearing, or cursing.** Censored swearing (such as s\*\*\*ty) is allowed, however the same is false for uncensored swearing. Reprimands vary, but may include: a warning, a 2-week ban, a 2 month ban without warning, severe reputational harm, or perma-blocks, which are given for increasing the Profanity Level.
* **Use racism or insult.** This can lead to as follows: warning, blocks, reputational harm, and instant blocks, depending on the severity of the insult.
* **Vandalize.** This includes inserting false info, inserting speculations to articles, blogs, etc., duplicating existing files or phrases, removing most or all of a page, somehow changing other users’ profiles pages/sandboxes, and troll-voting. Also, *for your information, **APRIL FOOL’S DAY IS NOT A TIME TO MESS WITH ARTICLES!!!*** The wiki will do something horrible to you IF YOU DO ANY OF THESE.
* **Beg for ranks.** You will be punished for it; asking for rankings only makes it worse.
* **Post anything inappropriate.** It is very unnecessary to post violent images. You will be warned for this, and to install milder stuff instead; warned to remove the inappropriate content within the next half hour (failure to do so result in a block, duration depends on severity); or, like always, reputational harm.
* **Be rude, slander, and/or harass.** You will be reprimanded in one of the following ways: a guaranteed block of 2 weeks, a warning and a probable block depending on severity, a block (yet again) for at least a day, reputational harm, or perma-blocks, if repeated, to ensure the safety of others.
* **Use sockpuppet (fake) accounts to escape a punishment.**
* And last (but certainly not least), **hack.** You have no right to, on this wiki, hack others or even you. This results in instant perma-block, **NO EXCUSES.** However, the wiki doesn’t mind if you hack *the game*.

There are more Don’ts we haven’t covered, but we should just get on with it.
