Okay, so Strange Horticulture is already out and we have had a good glimpse on the game. And from our glimpse, we can say that this is going to be a great experience for those who love immersing themselves in puzzles. But hey, hey, hey! This is not any regular puzzle game. Strange Horticulture is a puzzle game that has a bit fewer puzzles and a bit more magical simulations.
Okay, if you remember about the alchemist simulation game Potion Craft, you will be able to enjoy this game as well. In Potion Craft, you had to simulate and play around with different potions. And in Strange Horticulture, you have to simulate and play around with magical plants and flowers. Well, here is everything you need to know about the game and its playtime –
WHAT IS THE GAME STRANGE HORTICULTURE?
Okay, so Strange Horticulture is somewhat similar to Potion Craft. In this game, you play as a horticulturist of the dark and quaint town of Undermere. And what is your job here? Well, your actual job is to sell various magical plants and flowers to the customers who visit your shop.
And how will you do that? So the first part is that you have your own local plant shop where you keep all the stuff to sell. And then you have your plant encyclopedia which you consult when you are confused.
So is that all? Of course not. You also have to go in search of new plants into the dark and mysterious woods and mountains that surround the town. And this is where the fun starts!

As mentioned earlier, the town of Undermere is surrounded by dark and dense forests and mountains, and lakes as well. And this is where you go on a search for these magical plants. But keep in mind that you might encounter powers beyond your control and this might drive you crazy! Point Two.
