About the Game

Story

In the magical kingdom of Forestia, sentient plants called Herbae have built communities rooted in nature. When an insecure girl named Leafko is chosen as the new priestess, she must perform the Sprouting Ceremony, a sacred rite that brings new life. But a dark entity interrupts the ritual, withering both the forest and her body.

To lift the curse, Leafko has to retrieve four ancient relics, face her deepest fears, and uncover the hidden truths of Forestia and beyond. Supported by different companions, her journey becomes a fight not just to bring light back to nature, but to finally believe in herself.

About

  • Explore various locations and dungeons taken over by nature. Each dungeon has its own gimmicks and useful items. Some even hide secrets waiting to be discovered.

  • Engage in simplified turn-based combat with classic mechanics. Equip swords, daggers, shields, and everything reminiscent of old-school RPGs. Don't forget that plants can also wield magic.

  • Delve into an intriguing lore about cultures and nature. Learn about the relationships between different types of plants; from leaves to flowers, from fruits to nuts. Each group has an interesting history to read about.

  • Meet a new character in each chapter. Unlike other RPGs, the player doesn't control a large group of members, but rather the protagonist or a partner who assists her at certain moments in the plot. These characters only appear in their respective episode, offering diverse strategies based on their unique abilities. Uncover their stories and conflicts; they may even aid Leafko's growth.
