Watermelon Sovereign

Sixteen plots of dirt on an isometric field, a sky that keeps changing its mind, soil that remembers how often you have worked it, and a crew who will happily rob the neighbours while you wait for the melons to come in.

One plot. Fifteen more for sale.

Playable now

Watermelon Sovereign is an incremental management game that runs in a browser tab. You plant, you wait, you harvest, you sell โ€” and then you start looking for faster ways to do all four.

Weather & soil

The sky is on a two-minute cycle and crossfades between states, so the field is never quite the same twice. The dirt keeps its own books.

Clear skies The most common sky. Long, bright, uneventful.
Overcast The field flattens out and the light goes grey.
Rainfall Rain streaks the plots and the clouds roll in low.
Soil strength 100% โ†’ 33% Replanting the same plot tires it out and cuts the next yield.
Recovery Soil care Each level in Soil care gives some of that strength back.

Market

Buy and sell in ones, tens, or as much as you can carry.

The spread is the whole game in miniature: you always buy high and sell low. Levels in Trade squeeze it from both ends, but never all the way shut.

Treasure Hunt

Send the crew away for an hour or for half a day. Longer trips roll more rewards, and Knowledge improves the final haul.

1 hour A quick errand
2 hours An afternoon
3 hours A proper trip
6 hours Half a day gone
12 hours Sleep on it
The catch

While the crew is away, every plot you harvest gives the bare minimum. Send them out when the farm has little to offer โ€” not when it is about to pay.

Sabotage

Why outgrow the competition when you can quietly make their evening much worse? Pick a target, hire goons, and hope.

Watermelon theft Fast, direct, delicious. $13 / goon
Seed theft Invest in somebody else's future. $18 / goon
Dollar theft Skip the produce entirely. $13 / goon
Raid length30 minthe crew is unavailable
Regroup15 minbefore they will go again
Base odds50%coin flip, at first
Best odds90%with Sabotage trained

A failed raid still costs you the money you spent on goons.

Skills

Six skills, each from level 1 to 20. One attribute point per level, and any point you are short of costs $1,000.
