Frost Garden Overview
Frost Garden was one of those quiet, clever games from the Flash era. It didn't have a big publisher behind it, but it found its audience on sites where people looked for simple, thoughtful puzzles. You could load it in a browser and be playing in seconds, which was part of its charm.
You control a small gardener figure, moving left and right across the bottom of the screen with the arrow keys. Your only tool is the space bar, which lets you throw ice. The main objective is to freeze every enemy creature that descends into your garden. The mechanics are straightforward: you time your shots to hit moving targets, and you must avoid letting them reach the ground. Some enemies move in predictable patterns, while others are less regular, requiring quick adjustments. The pacing starts slow but builds steadily, creating a calm yet focused challenge. It feels like a patient game of defense, where each successful freeze brings a quiet satisfaction.
