If my back garden’s anything to go by (not a euphemism), I need Pocket Oasis. What’s that, you say? An off-the-shelf spray/solution that’ll fix your lack of skill in the Greenfingers division? Sort of. Have you heard of Botany Manor, by the way?
It’s a relaxing simulator on Steam where you can enjoy a virtual gardening world without worrying about temperamental weather. Looking at you, England. You’ll cultivate a balcony of your own design, grow fruit and meet charming creatures within a hand-painted watercolour realm.
In Pocket Oasis, there are 36 different plants, ‘from berries to bulbs, root veggies to roses’, which you can nurture and make your own jam without needing long, unkempt hair or an encyclopedia on holistic therapies.
Have a look at the trailer with either one of your eyes, or listen to the soothing sounds of botany:
The ‘pocket’ in Pocket Oasis also refers to this being Steam Deck verified, so if you have big pockets, you too can enjoy knit’n’purl’s chill-out game, available now on Steam.
