Glowgrove

A little mushroom garden that grows on its own

Glowgrove is a relaxing idle game about growing mushrooms where they really live: a sun-dappled forest floor, a mossy fallen log, a meadow fairy ring, a dripping cave, a misty marsh and an enchanted moonlit grove. Plant a packet of spores, watch something sprout in the painted scene, and find out what it is when it grows up.

Leave it running in a corner of your screen, or close it and come back later. Your grove keeps growing while you're away.

Keep or harvest

Every grown mushroom is a small choice. Keep it and it earns a gentle trickle of Dew, even while you're offline. Harvest it for Dew and a spore print, which lets you plant any species you've already found. Early on you'll replant often; later your grove mostly looks after itself.
