Comments on Strange Horticulture for Android

★★★★★ Oana Kore · Mar 15, 2026

Lovely game, full of rittles mysteries and plants, a bit steampunk, nice story

★★★★★ Katie “KaPow!” · Jun 6, 2026

A nice cozy, dark puzzle game. A little hard to read on mobile but zooming in and using the magnifying glass helps, and I was able to read everything in the game. A lot of reading, map scanning and plant identification (obviously).

★★★★★ Heaven Lynch · May 22, 2026

Absolutely amazing and so engrossing! I had to pry myself from the screen and can't wait to get back to the immersive world. Beautiful game with perfectly challenging puzzles and a rich storyline with various characters.

★☆☆☆☆ this or that · Jul 20, 2026

Amazing game, but it's REALLY not optimized for mobile. It's janky and crashed my phone several times, plus it consumes HUGE amount of battery. Edit: Actually, forget it. It crashed THREE TIMES just in the past 30 mins, the game is unplayable at this point, even tho I loved it so much that alone has soured my experience tremendously. Paying for jank is a huge frustration. It will remain 1 star until the devs care to optimize it for mobile.

★★☆☆☆ Hannah Moss · Apr 15, 2026

UI is not optimized for phones. I may try this game out on steam, but the phone version is very much just vaguely made into a touchscreen game with no optimization for it being on a MUCH smaller screen. Just trying to flip through the book and label plants at the very start had me struggling because the book would be set down when I tried to flip a page or vice versa. It could use a whole layout change beyond "If you can't read the tiny text, use two fingers to zoom in!".

★☆☆☆☆ Katheryne Ammerman · Jun 14, 2026

I was excited when o saw this game because I liked the esthetic amd liked the idea pf learning about new plants. No tutorials, no guide of any sort just throws you in the game with no idea where to start and the one hint it did give isn't really helpful and after completing the action doesn't progress the game anyway.
