About This Game

When the Wildflowers Leave is an engaging narrative-focused RPG. Cross the continent and stop through an anthology of meteor-stricken towns, all while carefully convincing them to harbor a radical. Commit to decisions that shift you and your companions’ mental dilemmas, and make the ultimate choice for or against uncomfortable change.

Make decisions in a branching dialog system that reacts back. Decisions are tracked to change character mental states, close and open plot lines, and a myriad of additional aspects. Choose to help or hurt your companions on each of their own mental dilemmas.

Experience an anthology of towns with their own unique plots. Find and convince someone at each stop to keep one of the continent’s infamous characters for the night without getting caught.

Every frame is thoughtfully filled with hand-drawn art inspired by Japanese Woodblock Prints, 19th Century Etchings, and Botanical Illustrations. See an incredible mix of traditional oil, watercolor, digital, and other mixed media all blended into a 2.5D environment.

Meet memorable characters across the continent. Talk with a family of orangutans, have philosophical debates with a man in a barrel, and get life advice from a cook making perpetual stew.

Get sucked into a world scored with an original bluegrass soundtrack

Experience untamed nature, manage resources, come across oddities, and cook while travelling between towns.

Kaetūroa is a young continent with a stubborn ecosystem that’s unwilling to hand itself over. Old growth forests are dense, terrain varies wildly, and megafauna still roams wild. Towns and states are scattered around and are beginning to scale in spite of it all. The Distance Treaties Act was signed by all states to ensure peace among all, but folks are starting to experience it’s flaws. Wild towns are starting to get enveloped by a capital city causing growing political tension. An unexpected meteor shower has just thrown daily life off course and you’re right in the thick of it.
