What is Horticular: Build a Garden, Attract Wildlife?

This single-player garden-building simulation takes place in a magical garden that gnomes ask you to restore. You expand and decorate it, arrange items to meet different animals' habitat needs, complete character requests for rewards, and manage decay and corruption as day, night, and weather change.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy decorating and setting your own gardening goals
  • +you like working out what attracts each animal species

Not for you if...

  • −you want gardening without upkeep or nighttime enemies

What players say
