Salty the gnome's garden is a mess — and he's far too grumpy to fix it himself. Swap cheeky gnomes in colorful hats to make matches, set off salt-shaker blasts and mushroom bombs, and rebuild the Gnome Village one star at a time. 60 levels, 10 worlds, and one very grumpy gnome who just might crack a smile.
Salty has a taped-up hat, a beard full of opinions, and a garden overrun with salt and toadstools. He'll never admit he needs your help. He grumbles at your bad swaps, cheers (quietly) at your big combos, and hands out gentle, salty one-liners all the way through — always family-friendly.
Gnome Swap is a classic match-3 puzzle game with a garden full of personality — built 100% with Apple's native frameworks.
Line up three or more gnomes wearing the same hat. Match four for a Salt Shaker gnome that blasts a whole line, an L or T for a Mushroom Bomb, and five in a row for the mighty Gnome King. Swap two specials together for an even bigger boom.
From Mushroom Forest and Sunny Beach to the Salt Crystal Caves, Snowy Pines and the Rainbow Sky Kingdom. Every level has its own goals — rack up points, collect gnomes, scrub away salt, or knock out toadstools.
Spend the stars you earn on 19 village projects — cottages with gnome-hat roofs, a fountain, a windmill, a duck pond, and even a castle in the clouds. It all comes to life with chimney smoke, splashing water and flowers swaying in the breeze.
Nearly 30 badges, from Hat Trick to Kaboom-shroom. The Badge Book shows exactly how to earn every one, and many reward bonus stars for your village.
Snoozy Stroll for extra moves and boosters, Garden Party for the classic game, or Salty Showdown when you want a real challenge. Switch any time — you keep every star you've earned.
No ads, no accounts, no chat, and no tracking. Gnome Swap plays fully offline and never collects any data. Silly gnome voices and a bouncy soundtrack, each with its own volume control.
Beat all 60 levels and Salty has something very special waiting for you. We're not going to spoil it — you'll just have to save the garden and see for yourself.
