Strange Horticulture News

[h3]Dear Horticulturists,[/h3]

If you, like us, can’t wait for the plants to start bursting through the cold outside, then now is the perfect opportunity to open your flower shop in Undermere!

[h3]We’ve got a Daily Deal, meaning that from February 12th to February 26th, Strange Horticulture will be 70% off! [/h3]

If you - or your friend, or sibling, or cat - have been wanting to pick up Strange Horticulture, this is the perfect moment to do so.

As you all probably know by now, we’ve been working hard on the sequel, Strange Antiquities! So, if you’ve been planning on delving into our first adventure in Undermere, this might be your shot.

See you in the store,

[h3]Hello, everyone![/h3]

As we celebrate the third anniversary of Strange Horticulture, we want to take a moment to reflect on this incredible journey and share our heartfelt gratitude. When we first started developing a game about a little plant shop nestled in the mysterious town of Undermere, we couldn’t have imagined how deeply it would connect with all of you.

Your support, curiosity, and passion have made these three years unforgettable.

It’s been truly humbling to see Strange Horticulture grow, finding its way to new platforms and players around the world. From PC to the Nintendo Switch, to Xbox and PlayStation, to eventually even making its way to mobile, the game has reached a wider audience than we ever dreamed of. Along the way, it’s been recognized with kind words from critics and players alike, and the stories you’ve shared with us mean so much. Whether it was playing along with a parent, child, or partner, diving into the world of Undermere to help you through a tough time, or playing through multiple times to unlock every ending, your adventures have made this world come alive.

We’re also thrilled to be working on the next chapter of this journey: Strange Antiquities. Many of you already know about this standalone sequel, and we’re so excited to dive deeper into what you can expect.

[h5]For the ones that don’t know yet:[/h5]

Set several years after the events of Strange Horticulture, Strange Antiquities takes you back to Undermere, but this time, you’ll run a shop stocked with occult antiques. As the apprentice of a Thaumaturge, your role will be to identify and explore mysterious artifacts, each holding secrets and stories of their own. The game keeps the immersive puzzle-solving spirit of Strange Horticulture while introducing new ideas, new characters, and an intriguing new mystery unfolding outside the cosy confines of your shop.

As we continue working on Strange Antiquities, we’re reminded every day that none of this would be possible without your support. Your passion for Strange Horticulture inspires us to create experiences that are just as immersive, mysterious, and meaningful. We can’t wait to share more details with you in the coming months, and we hope you’ll join us for this next chapter.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Here’s to three wonderful years of Strange Horticulture and the exciting adventures ahead with Strange Antiquities!

John & Rob

[h3]Dear Horticulturists,[/h3]

What an exciting year we’ve had!

We definitely hit some Bad Viking milestones in 2024 and we’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved this year. We brought Strange Horticulture to a few new platforms – you can now identify plants and help the residents of Undermere on the go and on your couch – and worked hard on watering the seeds of our return to dark and eerie Undermere.

And it’s exhilarating to see your enthusiasm and excitement about the sequel. From the teasers back in June, to the art contest, to the gameplay reveal trailer we released last week, working on Strange Antiquities has been an electrifying experience. We cannot wait to show you more in 2025.

For now, we’ll settle down for a bit – enjoy the end of the year and celebrate with the family. We’re wishing you Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year. 2025 is going to be a good one.

[h3]Dear Horticulturists,[/h3]

After teasing you all a few weeks ago, we’re beyond excited to share the first in-depth look at the gameplay of Strange Horticulture’s upcoming sequel, Strange Antiquities.

A few weeks ago, we got together in an old candle-lit cottage and tried to recreate some of the atmosphere from the game – rustic shelves, old maps, and as many strange-looking antiques as we could find (as well as a soft toy of Hellebore!) to talk about what you can expect from the standalone sequel.

In this gameplay reveal trailer, you’ll get a first in-depth look at the mechanics in the standalone sequel. It’ll still feel like Undermere with its cosy rain-soaked atmosphere and darkly mysterious undercurrent – but with new challenges, new puzzles, and new approaches. What new feature are you most excited about?

We hope you’re as excited to return to the streets of Undermere as we are,

John & Rob

[h3]Dear Horticulturists,[/h3]

We've been tinkering on a little something that will be sprouting in the world of Strange Antiquities soon. We hope you’re excited!

The reveal will be this December, and no, it’s not a release date just yet.

A Steep Discount!

We also want to point out that Strange Horticulture is currently 70% off. If you’ve been tempted to find out what mysteries lie beneath the soil of Undermere, this is your moment. Intrigue, wonder, and perhaps a touch of magic await you.

Not only will this give access to the first story in the world of Undermere, but it will also help you get excited for Strange Antiquities.

Stay tuned for more, and make sure to wishlist Strange Antiquities to stay up to date!

Rob & John
