“You are Lucky!” is a cute Japanese Grow style game created by Shuichi Oshida. Your goal here is to free 10 different characters.

Like in every Grow-style game, you will have to click the right items in the right order to complete the game. Be warned though, if you do something wrong, you will have to start all over again!

Strongly inspired from On’s work, You are Lucky! is beautifully well done and your children will love it (and you’ll probably love it as well)!

Have fun!

You Are Lucky! walkthrough (thanks Reka!)

On, the Japanese creator of the infamous Grow series, has just finished a new Grow style game to promote the Shibaura Institute of Technology.

The game is available in both Japanese and English and contains 8 different icons to select one after another, and then observe what happens! Once again, nothing else to do but trying to figure out how to get the perfect score with the right sequence(s).

On wrote about a possible hidden ending: is this a rumor or does it really exist?

Have fun!

Update: Grow Island walkthroughs in comments #1 and #7 (thanks Polpo and Danaroth!)

Found today at Eyezmaze, a brand new Point’n’Click puzzle game created by On (the creator of the Grow Series and the excellent Dwarf Complete)!

“As my friend’s baby was born, I made the birthday game for him (his nickname is Galves). Well already 8 months have gone by, ah 9 months? Oh 10 months? That’s about it”.

In Galves Adventure, you need to help the baby to make his way up to the top of the screen, and eventually defeat the sleeping lion.

Click the different items and/or animals in the right order and sometimes at the right time to progress, or hit the reset button if you get stuck!

No need to say that Galves Adventure is again a great game made by On.

Have fun!

Update: Galves Adventure video walkthrough! 

On, the famous Japanese creator of the Grow series has just released a new game, Dwarf Complete. Here is what On posted today on his Blog.

“I’ve just finished a puzzle or problem-solving game featuring dwarfs which appear in on-line RPG game (Lineage II). Of course officially.
As I made it with a vigorous effort, you can enjoy it especially for the people who like escaping game.
The challenge level is mid-high. I think it would be difficult to solve it by yourself. Please make good use of the community.
And it has the auto-save features, you can stop or start it as you like. You can play it step by step in your free time”.

Your main goal in Dwarf Complete is to collect 40 weapons and armors dispersed among several rooms of a dungeon in order to improve your character. Each new weapon or armor found opens a new door somewhere in the dungeon. To get most of the weapons and other equipments, you will often need to avoid traps or solve puzzles. You will also need a few other items (and combine some of them) to complete the game.

Use the arrow keys to control your avatar, and click an item at the bottom of the game window while using an arrow key when you want to use it.

I have no doubt that all you Eyezmaze fans will enjoy this one: On used all his skills to turn this new journey into a new delightful experience.

Have fun!

Grow Ornament was released by On last year in December, just in time for Christmas. Well, with the release of Grow ver.1 today, I thought it was the perfect time to revisit Grow Ornament and to add this simple and delightful game in the Kids page. Have fun!

Update: Grow Ornament walkthrough in comment #1

The latest version of Grow, Grow ver. 1 was released today by On, from Japan, and is available on his personal website, Eyezmaze.

“Thank you very much for your waiting!! I released GROW ver.1. This took so much time, yet you may finish it in 5 minutes. Well, please enjoy this game as you turn your favorite picture book. In fact, my 4 years old son looked forward to getting the game developed every day. If you have children, you may enjoy it with them. Thanks. On”.

Well, thank you On, for giving us this nice little present before Christmas. My kids will enjoy this game for sure!

Have fun!

Tribute ot Grow is another clone of Grow, the famous Series developed by On at Eyezmaze.

Designed by Industrial Zombie, the game was released a few days ago at Albinoblacksheep. It looks like Grow and of course, the rules are identical.

Just click the different items along the sides of the game window in the right order.

Tribute to Grow is probably not really innovative, but it should keep you busy for 5 minutes…

Have fun!

A new Grow Nano version (vol.1) was released two days ago by On and is available on his web site eyezmaze.com. After the fast clicking version Grow Nano vol.0, here is the slow hunt and click every spot version. You will have to find 30 different spots and be rewarded with a nice ending animation. Have fun!

A new Grow version was just released today by On and is available on his website Eyezmaze. Grow Version 2 is basically the same kind of game as every other Grow games: just click on the six different objects one-by-one and try to find the combination leading to the “congratulations”. Simple and easy! Have fun!
