Strange Horticulture

What a surprisingly fun game! Clever puzzles and an intriguing way to solve them! I felt like a true herbologist while playing it, discovering the plants, following it`s taxonomical indicators. As an agronomist, I felt like my early years on the grad school, having classes about taxonomic of the plants and its morphology. Wait, you still reading this? Go play it, and have fun!

Интересная игра, не напрягающая

I absolutley adore this game! I played the demo and was immediatley omw to buy the game. The artstyle is so unique and charming - all the different plants are so cool to see and study. The puzzles are so so well designed, just the right mix of logic and head scratcher to keep me engaged the whole time (never got unnecessariely stuck). I liked the characters and the storie writing. All in all banger game. Can only recommend

The best cozy game, the design, sound and gameplay are so unique and calming, definitely recommend

This game is a lot of fun! It has ominous atmosphere, which matches its story. I enjoyed the puzzle aspects in figuring out the plants and the clues to find the plants. I also enjoyed having some choices on how to interact with people and having that the end screen show the repeat characters and what happened to them.

i wish this game was longer, i could play like 100hrs of this. that's my one critique, i want more T-T

very interesting game with fascinating lore & worldbuilding, and I love that you can pet the cat!

Game is simple enough to not overwhelm you, yet interesting enough for you to keep playing. The main gameplay is solid... but man, there are so many chores! 1. You need to memorize a lot of stuff, and it's such a pain to go back to the book and refresh your memory, since there is no search function. 2. I want to explore more, but there is a timer + chore I need to do for this: why?? 3. I wish the game made the plants a bit more distinctive in their features. To make the game seem more complex, they have multiple plants that look similar, drawings that don't make much sense, and sometimes, you simply find yourself stuck because you didn't solve previous puzzles. The game expects you to play quite linearly, but the gameplay allows you to solve puzzles in your own pace. This conflict results in player fumbling about, wandering where things went wrong. Sometimes, it's the other way around. You are stuck in a puzzle, and you think you have to solve it with what you have now, but then you realize after using hint that you just haven't unlocked a new clue to solve that puzzle yet. This just bad game design :( Anyway, the game is still a solid 7; it wasn't that long of a game and I enjoyed the moments I played the game. (much more in the first half)

satisfying, not too difficult, interesting storyline (so far) i really am enjoying this game!
