About Herb's Homegrown Havoc
Herb has enchanted his garden!
He discovered a strange artifact in the woods that holds great power. After taking the artifact home, he decided to use it on his garden to see if it would help him with his homegrown produce!His garden is now running on overdrive! Plants grow faster than ever and leave these magical seeds behind which keep the enchantment active. However, if plants are left for too long they will rot away. Sometimes plants will become hostile creatures that resemble Herb's once delicious veg!

If you like rougelikes, whimsical vibes or a tasteful amount of chaos then I definitely recommend giving this game a try! The soundtrack and visuals charm you, while the gameplay keeps you focused on the task at hand. It's my current favourite game to jump in for a couple of runs when I have some time to kill. I would also recommend trying out as many of the different upgrades as you can as you have no idea what might synergise with what! Love this game 10/103 found this helpful
I've only played 20 minutes so far, and I'll already know that I'll keep coming back to it. The music and sound effects blend nicely, creating a whimsical and slightly nostalgic vibe whilst playing. That, on top of the cosy art style and setting of the game make it feel like an instant classic, and definitely a game I would love to play on a chill day. The game play is simple enough that getting into the game is easy, and the repetitive nature combined with the ramping up of chaos as you grow more plants creates an addictive feeling for the game. Each card you can pick in the game gives a nice explanation that makes the game easy to follow and doesn't take you out of it like exposition sometimes does in games. The tutorial is effective and honestly enjoyable which I really appreciate. I am terrible at learning new controls but the controls for this game whilst not similar to games I usually play felt quite intuitive and natural. Overall I'm already in love with the cosy and whimsical feel that this game leaves me with and I'm excited to see what the future brings.2 found this helpful
