- Battle System
Garden Tale is a 2.5D simulation RPG with a focus on strategy..jpg)
In various places across the map there are plants with explosive properties called "Bonions".
Hitting a Bonion will cause it to explode, inflicting damage to units in the surrounding area.
If other Bonions are caught in the explosion, they will also explode, creating a chain reaction.
The larger the chain reaction, the larger the damage that can be inflicted, greatly increasing your Mana (which is required to perform skills.).jpg)
- What's Bonion
【What are Bonions? (Part 1)】
Bonions are onion-like plants you will find spread across the map.
They take damage from attacks and will explode when their HP reaches 0.
Both enemies and allies caught in the radius of the explosion will take damage.

【What are Bonions? (Part 2)】
In this game, making use of the positions and properties of Bonions will give you the strategic edge in battle. Engulfing multiple enemies in a single explosion feels great. But you must avoid causing too much damage to your allies with explosions.
【Chaining explosions (Part 1)】
When a Bonion explodes, any other Bonions caught in the explosive radius will also explode. It is possible to set off a chain reaction this way.
【Chaining explosions (Part 2)】
Setting off a chain reaction not only increases the area in which you can inflict damage, but also increases the amount of damage itself. You will also receive more mana, which is required for performing skills.
Note your allies' position and health before setting off a chain reaction, in case they get caught up in the explosions.
【Bonion skills】
There are some skills attached to certain equipment which can be used directly on Bonions. These include skills that move a Bonion when you attack it, or grow Bonions quicker than normal. Becoming familiar with these skills will allow you make better use of the Bonions on the field. - Skills
You can give 1 unique skill and up to 2 skills for the weapon/armor of each unit.
Some of these skills are passive effects, deal damage to enemies, or control Bonions.
Try to make the best choice of weapons and skills for each stage and bring your enemies to their defeat!

Entertaining enough. Very short. Fun to pull off a full room clear or near full room clear with bonion combo. Still very short. :P Recommend but for me on sale is the way to go. I am accustomed to more hours for my money though I am unsure I would thumbs up it had it been substantially longer.9 found this helpful
The game had promise, but falls short almost everywhere. The game looks cute, but uses that "jointed sprite" style of animation, so characters look "odd" none of them have any feeling, they all look dead inside. Music is ok but a bit generic, and the battle system, it is as bare bone and standard as you can get. The game is unplayable in fullscreen, no matter what I do, making the game full screen in the options, or forcing a resized screen using other software, the mouse no longer works, and there are no other controls for the game. That said the controls are bad as well, using ONLY the mouse, and nothing else. I gave the game a shot, but generic repetitive enemies, bland music, and bad controls all add up to a game that is just not enjoyable.6 found this helpful

Get this game during promotion period, so it worth the price! Storyline is straight forwarded, but it touched me and I don't know why. Graphic, character's design and the game play is good with the bonion feature. The storyline is short, for real. You may finished within 1-2 hours. :(3 found this helpful

Garden Tale, developed by Bonion Games and published by PLAYISM, is a grid-based tactical RPG that builds its identity around a single creative mechanic, attempting to distinguish itself through environmental interaction rather than sheer mechanical depth. Set in a colorful fantasy world where the peaceful Garden Kingdom faces an invasion from the Zoolians, the game follows a small group of defenders led by Kurtz as they attempt to protect their home and uncover the truth behind the conflict. While the premise is rooted in familiar genre territory, the game’s core appeal lies in how it tries to reshape traditional strategy gameplay through its unique systems. At the center of its design is the Bonion mechanic, which introduces explosive plant-like objects scattered across each battlefield. These Bonions can be triggered to detonate, potentially causing chain reactions that spread across the map and deal damage to anything caught in the blast. In theory, this creates opportunities for creative strategies, rewarding players who can position enemies effectively and time their actions to maximize impact. Moments where multiple explosions cascade into one another can feel satisfying, o…1 found this helpful
