From Iceberg Interactive:

Widely acclaimed as one of the best indie games of 2022, Strange Horticulture transports you to a quiet, enigmatic shop with strange plants and an arcane mystery to solve. With gentle rain and your cat Hellebore by your side, your main task is to correctly identify the plants left in your care. Find and collect unusual plants, from hypnotic hallucinogens to powerful poisons, and help your customers with their occult needs.

Key elements:

· Study and Identify: Examine, identify and catalogue strange artefacts. Observation, deduction, and careful reference to our collection of illustrated tomes will serve you well. Mistakes can be… costly.

· Help… Or Hinder: When dealing with powerful items, your choices matter. Will you help someone with their problem, or curse them with a horrid affliction? In a small town like this, people remember your misdeeds.

· Explore and Discover: From time to time, you will have to leave the safety of the shop. Whether investigating rumours or retrieving artefacts, my well-loved hand-drawn maps will guide you to where you need to go.

· Solve and Uncover: Your day-to-day might already feel like a puzzle, but this store holds many more. Few know how old this building is, and fewer still know what secrets lie within its walls.

· Tending the Familiar: And, of course, Jupiter, the shop’s cat, demands daily affection. In return for his company, please oblige him with the occasional scratch behind the ears.
