Grunn

Grunn is a normal gardening game set in a mundane village in the far north of the Dutch countryside. A gardener gets hired to do some maintenance work over the weekend. The tall grass needs to be cut, the wild hedges trimmed, and the dead flowers could use some water. It's a simple task, but strangely some tools are missing… The owner of the garden isn't around, and their house is off-limits. Perhaps new tools can be found in the mysterious town, or maybe some of the reserved townsfolk have seen them?

From indie collective Sokpop (Stacklands, Simmiland, Guardener) comes Grunn, a very normal gardening game. You've been hired to work on a garden deep in the Dutch countryside. There's plenty to do: trim the grass, water the flowers, pick up trash, and of course enjoy the lovely scenery.Except… Most of your tools are missing. The owner isn't around. Going out after dark is forbidden. And no matter where you go, you can't escape the sense you're being watched. You have until Monday. Good luck!
