New Update!



The new update is out! :)
Thank you to everyone who tested it in beta!

The main change in this version is that the building mechanic have been redone to show a visible outline of the available slots where you can place a plant, bush or tree. This should make it much easier to see where you can build and also get rid of the problem of placing the trees at the edge of the garden that was a problem for some users.

A new button have also been added to the HUD that that let you scroll to the middle of your farm instantly (or you can press W).

Some other fixes has also been made, among others are improved windowed mode and some improvements and bug fix to the Loot Hero.

About This Game


In Plantera you build your own garden and watch it grow with new plants, bushes, trees and animals.

As you play and expand your garden you will attract helpers, round blue creatures that will help you pick up things and harvest your plants.

If you want you can pluck trees and harvest plants yourself, or let your helpers do the work for you while you watch or build and invest in new plants. The helpers will even continue to work while you are not playing the game, and some new gold should always be waiting for you on your return!

It is good to keep your eyes open though as sometimes some mean critters will invade your garden. Hunt them out yourself or invest in a guard dog to keep the order.

Go up in level to unlock new plants, bushes, trees and animals and continue to expand and improve your garden!

Super kawaii, super addictive farming sim.

You'll be checking up on your helpers, expanding your garden and scaring cute little critters after getting all achievements & a few hundered levels.

Verdict:
Played since release. Couldn't pull self away until all achievements were completed. Still play daily.

Cute little idle game with easy achievements. Nice if you're burned out from the other games in your library and need something fun to veg (pun intended!) out to.

It's pretty short, though, so get it on discount or in a bundle if you can.

Clicking based farming game. Achievements were pretty easy to achieve and can be done within a day (check out guides in the community hub). I don't feel it's worth $2.99, but if it goes on sale, it's definitely worth a dollar.

This game is good for what it is but it's tough to write a review about it. This is mostly because you can see the potential it had... but didn't reach out and take. It's decent fun. You can get 100% within 15 hours which is alright for the price. But at the same time, your experience playing it usually can be summed up as, "This would be so much better if it added x, y, and z." This is a good thing because it doesn't involve making changes, only additions, but it does sour the experience a little. If the game's on sale, it's worth picking up. Maybe even at full price. Still wish there were more to it, though.

A cute game where you click things and obtain a lot of blue men. The game stops giving you new content about roughly 3 hours of play but you can still work on improving your crops and animals. I like it/10

My rating was hard to make, honestly. I love the graphics and the concept, but those two things alone do not make a game. The game is cute, but the gameplay gets boring after 5 minutes. If only there were minigames to play in the game for a bonus amount of coins... Anyhow, If you have nothing to do for more than 72 hours a week, this is the perfect game for you to play, but if you are a person like me who only has maybe 24 hours a week to play games, then I advise a different game. If the gameplay is improved, I will write a different review, but for now, my rating is as follows: 6.5/10

My rating system: 10-6/10 = Yes 5.5-0/10 = No

Description

Plantera is an idle game, which means that the game will somewhat progress while you do nothing and even, up to a point, when it is closed.
Idle games have to walk a thin line between making the player feel useless (in which case the game is actually a screensaver) and having very little idle progress (in which case the game is not much of an idle game). Plantera works that thin line rather well, giving the player incentive to interact with its colorful garden, but also progressing on its own.

The point here is to grow plants and raise animals. You can reap the results yourself or let your blue workers do it for you. Critters (rabbits, foxes, wolves and birds) will try to snatch your stuff, though thankfully they never attack the animals, so they never take your progress back. You can either scare the critters away by clicking on them or invest in scarecrows and dogs.

Pros
  • Cute graphics
  • Some nice logical interactions (like wolves appearing only if you raise sheep)
  • Easy to complete, especially for an idle game (at least once you understand that you do not have to own 100 plants/trees etc, you just have to buy them, so you can trash and rebuy stuff to get the achievements...)

Cons
  • Every upgrade is unlocked very early in the game
  • Idle mode is a lot more efficient than away mode (with the game closed) even if you invest in the clock
  • No reset mechanic, even though it has become quite frequent in the genre

Verdict

If you've spent time on idle games like Cookie Clicker, Time Clickers and the like, you will probably like Plantera. Just beware that the game is on the short side.
If you've never played an idle game before, I would advise you to try some of the free ones to see if you like the concept before buying one, Plantera included.

I find the game plantera very new and fresh and the "late game" can be achieved in a decent amount of time. But that is what your view of the "late game" is. For Me, It is always having the max amount of profit. So at the moment I'm currently level 126 and I still dont have all cows or all cabbage etc.

But I have received the option to plant any kinda plant in the game. When you are looking at the late game like that it is very easy to reach and will be done in 3-4 hours. But it is a fun game that stays somewhat fun when you have like 20 hours in the game.

Now Onto the achievements for people who love them like me they are pretty easily obtainable but some of them you have to go for and can be tedious for an idle game i give it 7.5/10 because Of the great soundtrack and sounds the chibi feel of the game and fun gameplay.

Some cons, in my opinion, are when you get a pretty big farm almost everything just groups up in the middle and its like a huge moshpit. Also, I wish the collectors were a little more efficient they are better since the update but they still are pretty bad.

TL:DR - I gave the game a 7.5/10 and the late game is very achievable in a sense of just unlocking everything. Also, there a decent amount of achievements.

Fun for the first hour or so, it doesn't even get grindy, it gets too easy and boring af.
7 of those hours were me leaving the computer awake overnight on accident, FYI.
They practically give this game away on websites like Keymailer for a reason..

Rõõmsameelne casual clicker!

>Lõbus ja rõõmsameelne clicker mis tõstab meeleolu igale inimesele!
Tehtud suur värvikombinatsioonid heas korras mis on ühe oma välimust sunnib inimese naeratus. Mängu süžee on üsna lihtne, teil on vaja koguda rohkem puu-sest mida hiljem on võimalik vahetada uued taimed puud. Ühesõnaga mäng on huvitav igas vanuses.

>Hinnang: 7/10 Mäng on huvitav, kuid gameplay on monotoonne.

Plantera is a clicking based game where you take care of a farm which you can expand, plant trees, bushes and grow crops. The game amazing and is worth its value. The game is interesting and has a variety of unique features such as heroes.

Pros :)
-Good Value
-Amazing music
-Gameplay is fun and money is collected offscreen

Cons :(
-Game slows down at level 40+
-Achievements are rather hard to achieve.
-Content is limited

Overall Plantera is a great game and if you are looking for a cheap game which you can play for a couple of weeks I would highly recommend it. I wish the developers would lengthen the game and speed it up a bit as the lategame gameplay is very slow. The game may not appeal to people who like to collect all the acheivements as some of them are very time consuming.
