About this game

Strange Horticulture is an occult puzzle game in which you play as the proprietor of a local plant store. Find and identify new plants, pet your cat, speak to a coven, or join a cult. Use your collection of powerful plants to influence the story and unravel Undermere’s dark mysteries.

WELCOME TO UNDERMERE

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

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!

AN EVER-GROWING COLLECTION

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.

REDESIGN FOR MOBILE

The game has been reworked to offer the best experience possible on your mobile device and tablet. Enjoy your interactions with the world of Undermere in the greatest settings.

Ratings and reviews

I really like this game. The plants are beautiful and although it's tricky to identify them, it's not too hard. I think the shattered mind scenes are clever and better than a traditional death / respawn system. I love that there are multiple endings and that your choices in the game actually matter. Things I would change: a better way to zoom, a more explanatory tutorial, and expanding the game to include more side quests or after game content / mini games.

This game is great!! I love the puzzles and the different plants. The graphics are beautiful too, the only problem I have is the small text but it warns you about that and lets you zoom but sometimes that can lead to accidentally tapping on something you didn't want to. All in all a great game that I got addicted to playing soooo quickly!

Very fun, but I wish it were longer!! The story was great, I loved the puzzles, and I honestly think it was well-paced (despite wishing it were longer). If feels like a good movie that knew where to end. That said... if you made a second game with a different storyline but the same kinds of puzzles/vibes, I would buy it. Edit: Apparently they did make a follow up game called Strange Antiquities in Sep 2025!! I hope they release it for Android 🙏🙏🙏
