Description

It's the late 19th century, and more than 9000 windmills dot the landscape of the Netherlands, some of them primarily built to dry the lowlands, called Polders. Between the windmills there are fields filled with colorful tulips, a flower that was once a part of the turbulent history of the first financial bubble, now quintessential part of the Dutch landscape, especially on the famous Bloemen Route (Flower Route).

Windmill Valley, a game inspired by the Bloemen Route, gives you a unique opportunity to become a tulip farmer and entrepreneur. You will build and enhance your windmills, looks for new tulip bulbs to plant, and try to get an edge with hired help and lucrative contracts.

Let your blooming fields make your competitors green with envy!

  1. Rotate your Wheels to select an action

  2. Fill your Patches with Tulips

  3. Add Windmills to the Polders to gain benefits and build a network
