I don't know why I thought it was a good idea to buyt this game on the switch... the gameplay just lends better for mouse input.

It's a good game... just get it on PC.

Great game -- just not on the Switch

I bought this game after it was featured as one of the Games of the Day. It was a no-brainer really. I like plants and the novelty of a game that revolves around plants drew me into it.

**The Story**

You just inherit an herb shop. Now, you're tasked at helping the people living in and around your village find cures, remedies, and other plant-related wizardry. Gather plants and fungi, identify them, understand when and when not to use them, and be the herbalist every one needs you to be.

**The Gameplay**

It's a mix of plant identification, exploration, nightly puzzles, petting your cat, and figuring out a 'dark mystery'. It's really just point and click.

**The Verdict**

Strange Horticulture is not 'game of the year' material but it has a relaxing _(slightly ominous)_ charm that most new games lack.
