"The Netherlands-based indie games publisher Iceberg Interactive and England-based indie games developer Bad Viking, are today very happy and excited to announce that their occult-themed puzzle/adventure game “Strange Horticulture”, is coming to Playstation (PS5 and PS4) via PSN on February 23rd, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Such a short underwhelming video. Even just posting the Steam review score would have interested me but it's...just nothing.
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Regardless of platform, there's no difficulty in appreciating Strange Horticulture's oddball personality. Its peculiar combination of puzzle design with plants suggests anyone's interest would quickly wither, yet Bad Viking's blueprint does a great job of emulating and branching off of Papers, Please and similar work games. With an entrancing atmosphere and world-building to boot, it's easy to appreciate this unique tempo. Although currently lacking the best control scheme (mouse & keyboard) may compel some to get the Xbox version at a later thyme, it remains an evergreen puzzler for start to finish."
Review - There is a charm to Strange Horticulture, with the occult themes and downtempo music, but only if you can stick it out long enough.
