Description

In Grow Home you play as BUD (Botanical Utility Droid), a robot on a mission to save his home planet by harvesting the seeds of a giant alien plant. On his quest BUD will discover a beautiful world of floating islands that are home to some rather strange plants and animals.
Grow the giant plant and use your unique climbing abilities to reach ever higher ground, but be careful…one wrong move and it’s a long way down!

Key Features

Climbing: Procedural animation allows you to move BUD's hands independently, creating a unique and unrestricted climbing experience.

Growing: Guide and ride the giant alien plant as you create your own pathways in the sky. Everything you grow can be climbed on. Use it as a bridge, a safety net, or simply as a tool for artistic expression.

Exploration: Explore every nook and cranny of the alien world as you hunt and collect crystals that can enhance BUD's abilities. It’s a physical playground and many of the alien plants have unusual properties that can help you on your quest.

Very much an exploration game that let's you explore ways to climb up. It's got nice physics, good art style and a fun way to upgrade and grow. It's like Peek, but you create your own path and there's less stuff to

Grow Home is a surprisingly charming little game that had me genuinely smiling as I guided BUD up his ever-growing star plant, one awkward hand-over-hand grip at a time. The physics-based climbing takes some getting

Really sweet game with clear endgame. As someone who's never once wanted to 100% a game, this one has somehow made it my mission to fill the data bank and collect all crystals. (9 more to go!)

I hope to have half as much charm as this game. Definitely worth picking up for $1 on sale. Took 7 hrs to 100%. 90% of the achievements are fun to get. Only a couple are tedious but are definitely not a grind. Whoever
