Botanicus

The end of the 19th century. As aristocrats with a passion for botany, you acquired land, hired talented gardeners and acquired the most beautiful plants in the world. But that’s not always enough: your visitors are demanding people, and have very specific ideas about what they want to admire in a garden…

In Botanicus, you’ll have to try and create THE garden that’s sure to outshine your opponents’.

To do this, you’ll need to guide your gardener with finesse and do what’s necessary to get the right plants and water them at the right time. You’ll need to do your utmost to satisfy as many visitors as possible. But don’t forget to check your finances regularly…

Will you be able to overshadow your competitors’ gardens?
