Hello, everyone!
As we celebrate the third anniversary of Strange Horticulture, we want to take a moment to reflect on this incredible journey and share our heartfelt gratitude. When we first started developing a game about a little plant shop nestled in the mysterious town of Undermere, we couldn’t have imagined how deeply it would connect with all of you.
Your support, curiosity, and passion have made these three years unforgettable.
It’s been truly humbling to see Strange Horticulture grow, finding its way to new platforms and players around the world. From PC to the Nintendo Switch, to Xbox and PlayStation, to eventually even making its way to mobile, the game has reached a wider audience than we ever dreamed of. Along the way, it’s been recognized with kind words from critics and players alike, and the stories you’ve shared with us mean so much. Whether it was playing along with a parent, child, or partner, diving into the world of Undermere to help you through a tough time, or playing through multiple times to unlock every ending, your adventures have made this world come alive.
We’re also thrilled to be working on the next chapter of this journey: Strange Antiquities. Many of you already know about this standalone sequel, and we’re so excited to dive deeper into what you can expect.
For the ones that don’t know yet:
Set several years after the events of Strange Horticulture, Strange Antiquities takes you back to Undermere, but this time, you’ll run a shop stocked with occult antiques. As the apprentice of a Thaumaturge, your role will be to identify and explore mysterious artifacts, each holding secrets and stories of their own. The game keeps the immersive puzzle-solving spirit of Strange Horticulture while introducing new ideas, new characters, and an intriguing new mystery unfolding outside the cosy confines of your shop.
As we continue working on Strange Antiquities, we’re reminded every day that none of this would be possible without your support. Your passion for Strange Horticulture inspires us to create experiences that are just as immersive, mysterious, and meaningful. We can’t wait to share more details with you in the coming months, and we hope you’ll join us for this next chapter.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Here’s to three wonderful years of Strange Horticulture and the exciting adventures ahead with Strange Antiquities!
