So, I've always wanted a garden... But, it's impossible in my apartment. I could do indoor gardening, but my school has weird rules.

I found a solution! Viridi! It's like... tamogachi (sp?) for your gardening needs. You can just come on, water your plants, watch them grow, keep them fed, and you can treat it like a mindfulness exercise.

If this sounds like something you'd like to try, it's free! Check it out here. http://www.icewatergames.com/viridi/

Viridi is outstanding and one of its lead developers is a good friend of mine. It really is quite therapeutic, in the absence of having real succulents to grow. I do need to try the iOS version, since I feel like it would work better on that platform than PC/Mac.

As a side note, Ice Water Games also developed the excellent exploration game Eidolon , one of my favourite "walking sims" out there.

Edit: Here is my "main" pot. The background is from Eidolon and, IIRC, is something one automatically receives if they own both Eidolon and Viridi.

I had this on my pc for a while and it was nice, but it kept resetting on me :(

It won't let me have a blank signature ...

It is, along with an Android version. iOS link

@Edan: I know they had to reset people's pots a few times when it was in beta, but I've had the same pot since before the game's public release. I'd message the devs - dev@icewatergames.com - and explain what's been happening. They're super nice and can probably get to the bottom of it.

I used to "play" Viridi! It's great! I'm glad someone brought it up, now I'll have to find my game and start over with my plants :)

Our fight is for freedom, for liberty, and for all the principles upon which that aforementioned nation was built.” - Patrick “Madman of Galway” O'Dell
