Occult puzzle game Strange Horticulture releasing on Switch eShop this month

Publisher Iceberg Interactive and developer Bad Viking have announced that Strange Horticulture will be releasing on Switch eShop at the end of this month, on July 28. The game is an occult puzzle game based around collecting and cataloguing a variety of strange and powerful plants, whilst players explore the game’s land of Undermere. The game also released on Steam earlier this year.

Here’s an overview and a trailer of the game:

WELCOME TO UNDERMERE
Welcome to Undermere, a quaint town surrounded by hag-infested forests and rugged mountains. You are the Horticulturist, owner of local plant store Strange Horticulture. As a cast of colorful customers come by your shop, you are quickly thrust into an occult mystery stretching back hundreds of years.

THE LANDS BEYOND
Explore the lands beyond your store to find new plants, but be careful! The dark woods and lakes are not always friendly to a simple herbalist. You might discover powers beyond your wildest dreams – or lose your mind completely. Use context clues to determine which places to visit, and which to avoid!

AN EVER-GROWING COLLECTION
Using your trusty encyclopedia and clues found on your explorations, you learn more about the strange plants you come across. By identifying each plant, you will be able to use their effects to influence the story — from hypnotic hallucinogens to powerful poisons.

Strange Horticulture will release on Switch digitally via the eShop on July 28.
