About Acorn Stash
Acorn Stash is a relaxed reflex game with a twist: it is not about what you catch, but how big it is. Acorns, mushrooms and pine cones drift down from the canopy in three sizes, and the forest tells you which size to stash.
How to play Acorn Stash
- Press Start gathering. The bar at the top shows your stash on the left, the size you need in the middle and your remaining acorns on the right.
- Items fall in three sizes: small, medium and large. Tap only items that match the size named at the top.
- A correct tap adds one find to your stash. A wrong-size tap costs one of your 15 acorns.
- The requested size changes without warning every few seconds, so keep an eye on the top bar.
- Letting an item fall past costs nothing. The round ends when all 15 acorns are spent.

Tips for a higher score
- Ignore the type of item โ an acorn, mushroom or pine cone all count if the size is right.
- Medium is the hardest size to judge. Compare an item with its neighbours rather than guessing on its own.
- Since misses are free, there is no reason to tap anything you are unsure about.
- Check the target again right after each tap; the call often changes while you are focused on the falling items.
