Raise a Garden From the Dead
Cultivate a balcony garden in this cozy, witchy, semi-idle sim where life and death are both parts of growth! Leave the game running as a vibey companion in the background, or step in for more in-depth gameplay. Steal a moment to balance water and fertilizer, ward off pests, learn spells and brew potions, and explore the narrative at your own pace.
Step into the shoes of a young necromancer tending their late grandmother’s garden. Not blessed with her green thumb, they must rely on necromancy to bring plants back to undead life and tend the spectral flowers.
Grow into the Greenhearth community as you grow your garden, getting to know your neighbours and your grandmother’s familiar spirit, Compostifer. Uncover a heartfelt narrative from the BAFTA-nominated writer of I Was a Teenage Exocolonist all about community, grief, early adulthood, and the natural cycles of life.
