Harvest Catch

Fill your basket for the Thanksgiving feast! Catch falling pumpkins, apples, corn and golden pies, ride out gusts of wind and harvest rushes, grab power-ups, dodge the spiky burrs and beat your best score. Free on phone or desktop.

How to Play

Tap PLAY (or press Space / Enter) to start a 90-second round. Each round gives you a random mission, shown at the start and under the score.
Move the basket: drag anywhere on the screen, move the mouse, or use the ← → arrow keys or A / D.
Catch pumpkins (10 pts), apples and corn (5 pts) and rare golden pies (25 pts). Catch several in a row to build a streak multiplier, up to ×4.
Avoid the spiky chestnut burrs: each one costs a heart. Lose all 3 hearts and the round ends.
Random events keep every round different: a Gust pushes falling items sideways, a Harvest Rush drops a burst of fruit, Bouncing Harvest zig-zags off the walls, a Golden Acorn is worth 75 points if you catch it, and a Burr Storm fills the sky with spikes. A warning appears just before the wind and the storm.
Grab falling power-ups: Magnet pulls the harvest to you, Big Basket makes your basket wider, Shield blocks one burr, and Slow-Mo slows everything down.
The round gets faster in stages (at 15, 40 and 65 seconds). The first seconds are calm so you can warm up.
After the round you get a full breakdown: items caught, burrs dodged, best streak, power-ups, mission and where every point came from. Tap STATS for your lifetime record and your last 10 scores, or SHARE to send your score.
Press P or Esc to pause, and M to mute.

FAQ

How long is a round of Harvest Catch?

Each round lasts 90 seconds, or less if you lose all three hearts, so a game takes one to two minutes.

What are the random events?

From about 12 seconds in, a random event starts every few seconds: Gust (wind blows the falling harvest sideways), Harvest Rush (a burst of fruit with no burrs), Bouncing Harvest (items bounce off the walls), Golden Acorn (a fast, zig-zagging 75-point bonus) and, later in the round, Burr Storm (many more burrs for a few seconds). The order changes every round.

What do the power-ups do?

Magnet pulls good items toward your basket, Big Basket makes it about 50% wider, Shield blocks the next burr, and Slow-Mo makes everything fall at half speed for a few seconds.

What is the mission?

Every round picks one mission, such as catching 12 apples, reaching a 16-catch streak or letting 12 burrs fall past. Complete it for a 200-point bonus.

Can I play Harvest Catch on my phone?

Yes. It is built for portrait phone screens: drag anywhere to slide the basket. It also works on tablets and desktop with a mouse or keyboard.

How does the streak multiplier work?

Every 8 good items you catch in a row raise your multiplier by one, up to ×4. Missing an item or catching a burr resets the streak. A Shield-blocked burr does not.
