Flower Shop is a sorting game with career and matching elements. The player works in a flower shop sorting different types of flowers in vases on trays for shipments to customers. They receive coins for their efforts.
The game displays a large square table with green sidewalls and legs and a gray grid tabletop at the center of the screen. It presents the player with flowers on three trays on a green-topped horizontal table along the bottom of the screen. The player must strategically place these trays in adjacent positions on the grid to prompt the game to auto-sort matching flowers onto the same trays.
When a tray fills with six matching flowers, the order is sent to the customer and the space opens up. A box on the grid sometimes disappears as well, which opens a new space. The player must use all three trays before they receive access to more flowers on the lower table.
Flower Shop displays the level number, score and coin bank along the top of the screen. It displays a new customer's order and payment above the center table.
If the player is willing to view an advertisement, they can also reload a level at any time. If they run out of space, they receive coins they can multiply with a rainbow multiplier via an ad view.
The player must then start over from Level 1 to beat their last best score and coin balance. That said, any flowers they unlocked from the previous game remain available.
