About the game

Firefly Jar is a calm night game with a twist of timing. A meadow fills with fireflies, and every jar at the top of the screen asks for a mix of colours. Swipe through the fireflies to catch them; each full jar lights a window in the sleeping village below, and when every house glows the night is won.

The catch is that a firefly can only be caught while it is lit. Each kind keeps its own beat: green breathes slowly, yellow blinks twice, blue flickers fast and the rare pink glows long. Swipe through a dark one and it darts away, and later on moths scare whole groups. Watch the rhythm, wait for the glow, then sweep. There are 25 nights, with stars for speed and a steady hand.
