Quick Links
Strange Horticulture is a quaint little puzzle game with a simple mechanic but a gripping story. As a game with multiple endings, it may well give you a few hours worth of playthrough. Each plant serves a purpose in this occult game. As the Horticulturisℱt, it is your moral duty to unearth all the secrets in Undermere and its surrounding areas. The flora-related ones, at least.
With so many hills, forests and rivers, it is no wonder the map is crawling with unusual and plain bizarre plants. Finding them all can be a real head-scratcher. There's a big grid map and just one little you. Blindly guessing is just not going to cut it.
How To Navigate The Map
Exploration in Strange Horticulture relies on a map that that is split into many different areas by a grid labeled from A to Q vertically, and numbered from one to 33 horizontally. Each place in the grid can be interacted with, and some areas span over a few spaces.
Clues will oftentimes be very straightforward, telling you exactly where you will find something. However, there will be times when you will merely get vague descriptions; some d♔irections, the name of a place, a rough estimation of a location and so on.
To navigate the map, you should always take into ൲account the following:
- Places with a small, pin-like circle will usually be the main town or location. For instance, if you want to go to the Ambleside library, you will want to go to the little white pin on C20.
- Each of the squares in the grid is equivalent to a mile.
Where To Find All Plants On The Map
There are 16 days of gameplay and one or two extra epilogues in Strange Horticulture in which you'll tend the homonymous shop. Each day there will be a series of clues and riddles to solve. These will lead you to the discovery of a new plant, or a handful. 🌄Most of the꧒m are found all over the map.
Our table describes the appearance of the plants rather than using in-game descriptions, since these are often not completely reliable for identifying plants. You may use this table both to locate plants and as a reference to solve some of the puzzles if you get stuck. It also helps to remember that these flowers are listed in chronological order according to when they're found.
