About

Find and identify new plants, pet your cat, speak to a coven, or join a cult. Use your growing collection to influence the story and unravel Undermere’s dark mysteries.

Welcome to Undermere, a quaint town surrounded by hag-infested forests and rugged mountains. You are the Horticulturist, owner of local plant store Strange Horticulture. As a cast of colorful customers come by your shop, you are quickly thrust into an occult mystery stretching back hundreds of years.

Explore the lands beyond your store to find new plants, but be careful! The dark woods and lakes are not always friendly to a simple herbalist. You might discover powers beyond your wildest dreams - or lose your mind completely. Use context clues to determine which places to visit, and which to avoid!

Using your trusty encyclopedia and clues found on your explorations, you learn more about the strange plants you come across. By identifying each plant, you will be able to use their effects to influence the story -- from hypnotic hallucinogens to powerful poisons.

Рисовка напоминает Rusty Lake, и это просто удар ностальгии! Обожаю все эти маленькие милые загадочки, цветочки, Сама игра не сложная, три концовки очень радуют! Только неудобно, что нельзя начать с определенного момента, чтобы получить ачивки, надо три раза подряд проходить.
Great short-ish experience, I'm not going to replay the whole game to see changes - I wish there was a better way of doing that, but very fun flow to go through.
Очень душная и скучная игра. Головоломки бесят - ты ищешь долбаный цветок по описанию, просматривая мелкий цветочный ряд раз за разом... А потом тебе нужно найти уже известный цветок и ты пытаешься вспомнить где, блин, он. Можно же было как-то сделать нормальное масштабирование, а не эту (за) лупу... Карта - симулятор гляделок, всматриваешься и ищешь бурый мелкий текст на бурой бумаге, в надежде, что глаз зацепится. И как же бесит, что надо ждать её откат... На персонажей пофиг, атмосферой не проникся, я просто механически делал даваемые задания. Не, понятно, что творится какая-то оккультная хренамантия, но масштаба не чувствуется. Под конец задушнился геймплеем, использовал подсказки и прохождение. Потраченного времени жаль.
Bem interessante! Você fica envolvido para descobrir os mistérios e achar as plantas, bem legal mesmo!
It's chill, it's cozy, and it's the kind of puzzle my brain actually likes, which is sort of tricky to pin down.
I really enjoyed this game. The variety of characters, the plants... there's enough to keep you engaged even without the storyline / lore. I enjoyed playing this with a friend!
Impeccable. Chef's kiss
A rather tranquil but exciting experience - yes, both at the same time. Suitable for anyone wanting to solve mysteries and riddles while enjoy taking care of and identifying plants
плюсы: спокойная игра, не одна концовка. минусы: приходится неоднократно перечитывать книгу. 1-2 загадки пришлось гуглить, остальнын даже слишком лёгкие. ппям рекомендовать эту игру не могу, но она успокаивает - для прокрастинации самое то. по дизайну тоже не выдающаяся, но и не плохая. в общем разок развеяться - самое то.
I have loved this casual and cozy game! It's simple format is fun, the aesthetic is super cute, and the "puzzle" type (trying to figure out which plants are which, and what customers want from descriptions) of gameplay is a nice added layer. I also have really enjoyed the underlying mystery that is unfolding and the hints are super helpful but don't give the answers away- just the right balance! I haven't finished this game, but I fully anticipate doing so.
