Love Entanglement and want more? Try the brand new Sakura Grove Expansion! Explore an engaging new game mode with a wild twist, two stylish maps, and a daily challenge to see who is the best at Entanglement!
- Sakura Grove - A completely new game-play mode for Entanglement! You have a spacious garden surrounded by cherry trees, but you have a limited number of tiles to play. Acquire more tiles by directing your path through one of the cherry trees, which blooms every time you pass through it. How far can you go? You’ll have to see for yourself!
- Hana Blossom - A new flower-shaped map for Entanglement with the original rules. The map is larger but the petals provide an interesting challenge; it’s easy to get into one, but make sure to plan your way out, or your game will end quickly! This is a wonderful challenge for advanced Entanglement players.
- Lotus Petal - A new tiny map for Entanglement also using the original rules. It is a great training ground to practice your ability to string together long paths and plan future moves. You can also play the map quickly enough to have a nice slice of Entanglement fun in the time of a commercial break.
- Daily Challenge - A new challenge every day for Entanglement players! Will you be the best player today? We haven’t quite finished this mode yet but we’re working hard on it. Anyone who buys the expansion will automatically get access to the Daily Challenge mode when it is completed.
To get started, open Entanglement and select "More Modes" from the main menu. If you have the Chrome App installed and it says "Coming soon!", you may need to refresh the page in your browser to get the latest version of the web app.
We’ve been hard at work taking Entanglement to a cool new place and we hope you’ll enjoy it. If you have any questions or comments, please let us know; thanks!
Thanks! <3 Entanglement
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you have an iPad version out yet?!?
ReplyDeleteYou *do* know that some of Noah's descendants work at Apple, right?
Hey Brent,
ReplyDeleteThe iPad version is currently "in review" in the Apple app store. So, assuming no last minute disasters it should be out in the very near future. We'll definitely have a blog post up announcing that as well.
Will be the iphone/ipod version release at same time as ipad version too ???
ReplyDeleteJarek,
ReplyDeleteThe iphone/ipod version is hot on the heels of the ipad version. It is "waiting for review" so hopefully by next week it'll be in the store.
The app and the sakura grove expansion have different maps and modes (though both share the classic map and mode). So, you'll want to check out both to experience everything.
Very nice!
ReplyDeleteBTW, #4 on Hana, #5 on Lotus. I *suck* on Solitaire, apparently :)
Thx, that's great news, can't wait.
ReplyDeleteAnd one more thing :) What about graphics, will be similar to the game version in google web store (I mean sounds, backgrounds)
We've taken a different direction with the art and sounds in the iOS version. The art and sounds in the iOS version are a bit brighter and cheerier. The art is all textured as if it's made out of construction paper and in general there's has a lot more movement on-screen than the web version (such as seeing the lines grow, and a fireworks show on the score screen).
ReplyDeleteWe had several discussions about whether to unify the art/sound styles, but in the end we decided to go two different directions for various reasons.
We expect some people to prefer one versions art over the other, but you'll find the same great gameplay in both so we hope you'll check it out.
I love the expansion pack. Thank you for it.
ReplyDeleteIn Sakura, if I am down to "last tile", and manage a double trip through the cherry tree so I'm back up to two, why doesn't the spare tile reappear at the lower left to be available for swapping?
Hey Ross,
ReplyDeleteGlad you're enjoying the add-on. The swap tile not reappearing sounds like a bug...we'll have to get on that. Thanks for pointing it out!
@Ross - I just fixed the swap tile issue. You may need to refresh your browser to get the latest version. Enjoy, and thank you!
ReplyDeletei stumbled across entanglement last night... and omg!! i must say: what an awesome game!!! totally hooked.. just got the expansion pack. keep up the brilliant work and looking fwd to more puzzles. thanks guys!
ReplyDeleteHey I think your "Google Checkout" payment mechanism for the Sakura Grove Expansion may be buggy.
ReplyDeleteOne the second page, after entering my card
details, I continuously get the error:
"Google Error
Request Entity Too Large
Your client issued a request that was too large."
Can you also add PayPal? I never have problems with PayPal.
Thanks Edward, one other player mentioned the same issue, so we're looking into it!
ReplyDeleteThe best we've found regarding that particular Checkout error is here: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/checkout-merchants/thread?tid=32a0d3cff1587b88&hl=en - it appears to be on Google's end. We're looking at possible work-arounds; sorry about this!
ReplyDeleteHi there.
ReplyDeleteJust purchased the expansion and loving it. But I'm wondering how to enable multiplayer with it. The Sakura Blossom pop-up mentioned specifics for multiple people, if I remember correctly. Is this a possibility?
HI,
ReplyDeleteI purchased the Entanglement expansion set. I AM logged in. I played Sakura Grove 1 time but now i always get the purchase screen when i try to play more modes. Is there something else i'm supposed to click on to play the expansion maps?
@sniprpenguin - Yes! We haven't fleshed out the Multiplayer menu with the new content, but it will be coming soon.
ReplyDelete@Meash - I'm sorry it's giving you trouble. I would try logging out and then back in. Also, make sure you are logging in using the same Google Account that you used to sign up for the expansion set. If it's still not opening the expansion set menu for you, email feedback@gopherwoodstudios.com with your Google Account email address and order # and we'll get it resolved!
@Meash I was having this problem too - in my case I didn't realise that an email got sent out with a link to activate the new levels (just assumed it would automatically link with my Google account).
ReplyDeleteI clicked the link in the email and now have access to the new levels :)

ReplyDeleteWell I am completely addicted to this game and love it BUT - I played 2 days ago, jsut went to play again, and have to pay for the expansion pack again??
ReplyDeleteI've logged in and tried every Google account I have and NONE of them work. What's the deal? I am not going to pay 2 bucks every time I want to play:)
Glad you like it and sorry about your issue - if you send your order number to feedback@gopherwoodstudios.com, we'll look it up and let you know which Google Account should work - and if it doesn't, we'll fix it :-).
ReplyDeletecan't buy becouse of error
ReplyDelete"Request Entity Too Large
Your client issued a request that was too large."
Hi Dennis,
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately that's a Google Checkout error that we cannot control, but fortunately there's an easy workaround: You should be able to order without any problems using another browser like Firefox or Safari (odd, I know). Let me know if this doesn't work for you; thanks!
I will try later from another computer, but in my own I have the same problem in all browsers - safari, chrome, opera
ReplyDeleteWhen you have a PAYPAL facility you might sell me one. Until then, forget it.
ReplyDeleteSecondly why do you include high scores from games other than solitaire in the chart? It's dumb.
@Dennis - if possible, could you send us an email with a screenshot to feedback@gopherwoodstudios.com?
ReplyDelete@Clive - Thanks for the suggestion: we are looking into PayPal. We have the other game-board scores listed there for everyone in an effort to spark interest in them, but we are open to other ideas. We are doing our best to find out what works and what doesn't when it comes to making a livable income out of game-making, so we're glad to hear your perspective.
How to buy via PayPal? Can't buy using google checkout, they don't accept any of my cc!
ReplyDeleteHi - we are currently addicted after stumbling across the app on Chrome one day. We cannot get off it!! But now we have HAD to buy the expansion pack and its even better! You guys rock! We are still getting pretty dumb scores but am sure this will change! :)
ReplyDelete@Fiona - Thanks! We're really glad you're enjoying the game and the expansion pack! Don't worry, you'll get better. The high scores impress even us. We can't get anywhere near that high! :)
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I love entanglement but I had so many problems with the one on iPad. Had to do several emails with the developers due to bugs, errors, and constant crashing. Apple store takes a very long time to push through the updates.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to stick with the original 1.99 entanglement if this is a separate application, I will not be buying it. Though it looks extremely interesting.
@Ei I'm sorry about the problems you faced with the iPad version of the game. We underestimated the amount of energy that would be required to fully test the iOS version and seemed to hit every silly snag along the way. I hope it's in a better working condition for you now.
ReplyDeleteThe online expansion is part of the online game, so if Entanglement works in your browser, then the expansion will work too. Also, thanks to it being in the browser we're able to respond a lot faster to problems. :)
Do you have any idea how much money you're losing with Google's error messages? You need to set up a Paypal option immediately. It's not hard to do at all and wouldn't be so frustrating. You're losing money, believe me. I've just about given up. :(((
ReplyDeletewhether I use Explorer, Firefox or Chrome, when the game loads the tiles are huge and I can't play the game. What to do??
ReplyDeleteHi, are you getting this result from http://entanglement.gopherwoodstudios.com/? If so, using Chrome, could you send a screenshot to feedback@gopherwoodstudios.com? Thanks!
