Verdant

From the developer’s that are bringing us Lou’s Lagoon comes an exciting new game, Verdant. Verdant is an upcoming single-player open-world survival game. It features the coming-of-age story of a hero named Sprout.

In this dangerous yet beautiful world you will encounter mutated creatures and overgrown buildings. You will need to watch your steps as well as your body carefully to make sure you survive.

They’ve assured us that there is no need to worry about this affecting the development of Lou’s Lagoon as they have two teams working on the games in parallel and supporting each other. When their other title Into the Emberlands released they had the other team working on Lou’s Lagoon, so while Lou’s Lagoon is preparing for release, this other team will still be hard at work on Verdant.

In Mandrake, you are the last of the Mandrakes, a sorcerous line of gardeners. At long last, you’ve returned to your family’s abandoned home. Make friends, tend your gardens, and put down roots. Fish, gather and delve in the wilds. Make a place for yourself, and uncover the mysteries your family left behind.

Horticulture is a cursed and forbidden practice… except to you. You come from a long line of sorcerers who practiced the green and growing arts, and you’re able to grow such marvels as: runner beans! Cherry trees! The humble turnip!

And as your skills grow, you’ll be able to plant stranger seeds, like thunder-calling taran, or rhewyn, which waters your gardens for you. Perhaps you’ll even grow a goose-tree! (Where did you think geese came from? Other geese? Preposterous.)

Place beds, decorations and resting spots. Find, plant, nurture, grow and harvest plants both mundane and magical, and gradually expand your gardens into the tangled grounds of your family’s abandoned castle.

Discover a beguiling new world inspired by British history and folklore. A world of old, wild powers, of uncanny spirits that reside in those places mortals dare not go; of deep histories, and deeper mysteries.

You won’t just work in your gardens. Forage for resources in the nearby woods and along the beach. Go fishing (but take care not to be cursed by the river). Delve into dangerous mines in search of bright minerals and stolen secrets.

Breathe life into the Mandrake lodge with your choice of furnishings and renovations; acquire old books, and spend the evenings reading in the candlelit comfort of your study. Learn to cook. Meet your neighbours, become entangled in their lives, give them gifts and learn their stories.
