How it feels

A short, calm walk through a metaphorical story that feels emotionally moving and gently bittersweet.

What players say

Players agree it is an extremely short walking simulator with a sweet story about plants, taking only about five minutes to complete. Many call it a pleasant but ultimately forgettable experience with no replay value.
