How to play
Tap it to make the tomatoes hop and rock. With ✋ on, drag a tomato to lift it and set it down.
Notes
They are cooked and eaten like vegetables, but to a botanist a tomato is a berry: a juicy fruit that grows from a flower and holds many seeds.
Tap it and the plate gives a little shake: a wave of small hops runs around it, and the tomatoes land in four groups, rock outward and settle with a wobble. There are thousands of kinds of tomato, from tiny cherry tomatoes to ones bigger than a fist, in red, yellow, orange, green and purple. With ✋ Hands-on on, drag any tomato to lift it on its own and set it down on the plate or on another; reset puts them all back.
