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.

It's great. I don't know what else to say other than that.
I got immediately sucked into this game. The cozy yet spooky vibes are perfectly witchy. And the small puzzles are satisfying to complete while not annoying the hell out of me. Really recommend!
Strange Horticulture is such a delightful, peaceful, and intriguing game. It really gives you the feeling of actually running a mysterious little plant shop, where you slowly uncover secrets and solve clues in a wonderfully old-fashioned way. I absolutely love using the paper map, studying letters for hidden clues, and trying to figure out where I need to go next. I find myself genuinely reading every letter carefully because the details actually matter. Identifying the different plants and putting labels on them is surprisingly satisfying too! The whole game has such a wonderful atmosphere. Nothing feels boring or tedious; instead, it makes you want to pay attention, investigate, and take your time. There's something incredibly calming about sitting in your little shop, surrounded by strange plants, while the rain falls outside and another mysterious customer walks through the door. It’s one of those games that actually seems to quiet your mind. It calms my nerves, makes my head feel peaceful, and at the same time keeps me completely intrigued. Absolutely loving it! 🌿❤️

Every market we collect.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

음.... 게임 자체는 엄청 재밌습니다. 단서로 식물찾고 맞는 식물 갖다주고 근데 몇몇 단서의 힌트가 저한테는 굉장히 억지스러운면이 없지않아 있는거 같아요. [spoiler] 특히 세로드립으로 힌트 갖다 박는건 진짜 너무 억지 아닌가요 ㅋㅋ [/spoiler] 그 이외에는 전부 다 재밌었던 것 같습니다. 퍼즐, 추리게임 특유의 피곤함하고 답답함은 어쩔 수 없긴합니다. 엔딩을 보긴했는데 에필로그까지 보기에는 너무 힘빠집니다. 다시 심심해지면 한 번 켜봐야겠습니다.
i loved everything about this game. it's super fun, intuitive, and comforting. absolutely amazing work on everything. i will admit to searching the web for where to go next several times!! sometimes i didnt have the thing someone was asking for due to missing a clue from a few days ago. pay attention to ur clues!!
Strange Horticulture is certainly not bad by any means, but despite already being a relatively short game (replays and post-game notwithstanding, for reasons I will explain later) the lack of variety of puzzles and mechanics left me a little bored in the final couple days of the game's story. New mechanics are introduced every now and then, from ways to access secret information, to items the NPCs give you throughout the story... but frankly, these mechanics all felt a little underbaked and inconsequential. The game's story is good enough for what it is, a narrative vehicle to keep puzzles coming to you, but static sprites and text boxes simply don't convey any feeling of urgency or drama. The 'choices' you have in the story are incredibly telegraphed, and the lack of agency outside of very specific interactions makes it extremely obvious when you are picking a story path. By the end of my 3-hour-ish playthrough, having gotten one ending, there is absolutely nothing motivating me to go do the others - the puzzles won't be all that different, and I'm not really interested in identifying the remaining 20-something plants just for the sake of it. Not bad, but not revolutionary.
[b][u] TLDR: Who doesn't want to own a plant store with a cat? [/u][/b] I just spent hours playing [i]Strange Horticulture[/i] on my first playthrough, and I had an amazing time. It's a fun, quaint mystery game centered around plants and occult horror. The detective aspect is a nice balance of intuition and analysis. You're trying to uncover a dark secret while doing commissions to solve people's various needs via some light shop management. You can also explore the map to find new plants or visit different places. I also like that the story has different endings depending on your actions. And, of course, there's also a little murder incident [strike]that you may or may not find yourself involved in.[/strike] The art and music help create a fitting ambience. It's cozy, with just a dash of bizarre and unsettling atmosphere, which I think fits the game neatly. My criticisms are fairly minor: - The plant descriptions can be too vague sometimes. - The small text on the map can be tiring on the eyes, even if you can zoom in on it. Overall, I'd recommend [i]Strange Horticulture[/i] to anyone looking for a cozy mystery game with an occult twist.
Прекрасная сюжетная игра с элементами головоломок и мистики, которая никуда не торопит. + Каждый день или заказ НЕ ограничены по времени. Ты сам решаешь, сколько стоять твоему клиенту, пока ты ходишь в экспедиции, разгадываешь головоломки, исследуешь и подписываешь цветы в твоем саду. + Сюжет мистический и затягивающий, есть несколько концовок + Для прохождения сюжета требуется использовать набор инструментов и добывать новые цветы из разных мест, многие из которых зашифрованы загадками. Чем ближе к концу игры, тем менее очевидные загадки и способы добычи новых цветов и это прекрасно. + Также чем дальше от начала, тем больше появляется похожих друг на друга цветов, приходится тщательно изучать книгу с описанием, чтобы их определить. PS: игра честно куплена другом, поэтому галочку "получена бесплатно" не ставлю.
I absolutely loved this game. A bit of mystery with some plant identification based puzzles (as a biology nerd this hit home run for me). I do admit some puzzles made me scratch my head and I still don't fully get why they had the solution they did, but it's still a really good game. Nice spooky vibes with the story too. I'm a lil ashamed I waited for so long to finally play it.
Очень увлекательно. Спасибо разработчикам!
