Description

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.

6-10 hours of decent puzzles. Most are REALLY easy with about 3 actually making you think. The art is good, the story is fun, you can pick you endings and there are multiple endings for all the people you meet. Catch it

Amazing game and for a good price as well. Story is creative with interesting characters. The puzzles are also nice(although quite easy) with variety and the music is just right for the gameplay. Couldn't recommend it

This game was recommended to me for its "puzzle" aspect and I really enjoyed it. The artwork is pretty, I felt challenged, and was left wishing there was more to find. I'll be honest - I definitely had to use that hint

I am very conflicted writing this review. On one hand, I really enjoyed the plot and how your actions had consequences in terms of the endings you can achieve. Whoever created all of the plants did a wonderful job and

Played this after playing it's predecessor, Strange Antiquities. Even with this being a little tedious using a controller, a mouse did speed things up but not by much. It's a minor QoL issue and it did not deter me from

A Cozy puzzle game with spooky vibe. Every character (including you) has a backstory that you unveil day by day. Most of the puzzles were easy to solve if you pay close attention to the pages and information given by
