The glorious gardens, graceful greenhouse, and dignified doors of Botany Manor are almost open to the public! Botany Manor, the debut title from Balloon Studios, will launch on PC, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox on April 9, 2024. Players looking to secure their spot in the Manor’s gardens can pre-order their copy on Xbox starting today.
Just ahead of launch, Balloon Studios’ Laure De Mey takes us through one of the puzzles that can be uncovered in the upcoming plant puzzle game Botany Manor.
Pixie Tears are one of the rare forgotten flora that retired botanist Arabella Greene has collected as part of her long years of research. Like many of the plants in her collection, this specimen requires a very specific set of circumstances in order for it to bloom. De Mey walks us through Arabella’s collection of research to determine just how to make this dainty flower flourish.
