Bonus Stage Publishing and Italian developer Dramatic Iceberg have released their cozy and peaceful gardening sandbox game, Garden In!, on PC. This is the studio’s first commercial title and it features greenhouses full of seedlings and plants.
Starting in a single room, the game tasks players with decorating it to their liking. The room acts as a little sandbox where players can grow plants, paint the environment, and move furniture around.
Initially players start start with just a few seeds. Soil, water, rocks and a few pots are available. As one advances their gardening, different seeds can be combined along with different growing conditions can be tried to expand the seed library. New rooms and areas are unlocked via gameplay.
Now that our whole team has been working with the game for a long time, we’re excited to see all the gardens blooming soon around the world. We are nowadays good at exploring the world of plants and the whole team is constantly pushing for new plants and designs, so Garden In!’s community will soon see a lot of updates as well!
Tommaso Verde, Co-Founder, Dramatic Iceberg
Previously the game was featured in Whole Games and Guerrilla Collection in June 2022. In the same month during Steam Next Fest a demo was available for a limited time. Last September, Garden In! on Nintendo Switch was announced for release in 2023.
It has been great to work with Dramatic Iceberg’s talented team and to see how the game has evolved from what we first saw to a full and finished quality product. We are seeing a great demand for cosier games on PC, and we’re lucky to have an investor with a like-minded world view working with Garden In!
