lilacs.pro was founded in 2021 by a team of puzzle enthusiasts and nature lovers with a mission to create calming, creative puzzle-adventure games that celebrate the beauty of the natural world. Based in Portland, Oregon, our team of 7 developers, artists, and writers combines expertise in puzzle design, environmental art, and gentle storytelling to craft immersive experiences.
Our flagship title, Lilacs: Whispers of the Wild, invites players to solve over 300 nature-themed puzzles across 8 serene environments—from sunlit meadows and misty forests to blooming gardens and quiet streams. Each puzzle is tied to a soft, unfolding narrative about restoring balance to a magical natural world, with solutions that often involve interacting with virtual plants, animals, and natural elements.
What sets us apart is our commitment to "slow gaming"—we prioritize relaxation and mindfulness over speed or competition. Puzzles feature gentle music, ambient nature sounds, and no time limits, encouraging players to take their time and appreciate the details. We also integrate educational elements, with fun facts about real-world plants and animals hidden throughout the game.
Since launching, lilacs.pro has grown to over 90,000 registered players, many of whom praise the game for its stress-relieving qualities and beautiful visuals. Our commitment to community feedback has led to major updates, including new seasonal puzzle packs, a cooperative puzzle mode for playing with friends, and a mobile version optimized for touch controls. We also partner with environmental organizations, donating a portion of in-game purchase proceeds to support nature conservation.
Looking to the future, we’re expanding Lilacs: Whispers of the Wild with a "creator mode" that lets players design and share their own nature-themed puzzles, a virtual garden where players can grow plants unlocked through puzzle solving, and more detailed educational content about sustainability. We’re also developing a standalone game focused on bird-watching puzzles, aimed at nature enthusiasts of all ages.
At lilacs.pro, our mission is to create games that nourish the mind and celebrate the natural world—providing a peaceful escape from the chaos of daily life. Whether you’re a casual puzzle solver or a nature lover seeking a digital retreat, we welcome you to join our community.
