| Strange Horticulture (Video Game) | comment |
Strange Horticulture is an adventure game by Bad Viking Studios, released in January 2022. You play as the owner of the titular "Strange Horticulture" shop in a roughly Victorian Campbell Country, helping several strange folk seeking herbal remedies and ritual plants. And then, the place being what it is, things get... complicated.The story of the game plays out over sixteen days and has three distinct endings (which also have their variants depending on your decisions). | |

Artistic License – Biology | |
| Strange Horticulture (Video Game) / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: You have a number of fungi along with your plants. Fungi and plants are not closely relatednote fungi are closely related to animals, while their last common ancestor with plants is the common ancestor for all eukaryotic organisms but this is justified by the Victorian-esque setting. At that time, fungi were traditionally considered to be related to plants and they didn't have the research tools to dig into their evolutionary history. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| Strange Horticulture (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Three of them. Verona and, potentially, Bethany help you conduct a ritual that banishes the Servant. The Seeds of Retribution let the Servant run free. Bad things happen. With the Elixir of Control, Faye hijacks control over the Servant... Or you can throw Swiftsnare at her and drink the Elixir yourself. | |

Kick the Dog: Isidore Burbidge, the thoroughly unpleasant lawyer, literally punches a defenseless puppy at one point for kicks and giggles. You learn of this after you had the chance to enact your disproportionate retribution on him and, potentially, wasted it. | |

Kindhearted Cat Lover: Inheriting the shop came with your own pet black cat, Hellebore, fitting named after a type of plant. Clicking on it lets you pet it, resulting in blissy purring. Simone similarly dotes on Hellebore. | |

Ability Required to Proceed: Several plants are required to advance the plot, but you either lack the info to identify them, or the plant itself. There's also the magical lens that you get from the Hermit, that you need to read things written in invisible ink. | |

Golden Ending: While the intended "good" ending has the Servant banished, you need to place Embersoul on the Altar of Arduinna on Day 10 in order to protect Bethany and the Sisterhood. | |

Truth Serum: One of the plants forces people to tell the truth. You're given a hint to use this on Simone late in the game. If you do, she gives you the recipe for the Elixir of Control to deal with the Servant, but she'll be pissed when she comes in the next day and warn you not to try it. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Strange Horticulture (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: One of the choices for the Golden Ending is fairly counterintuitive. Cauldery is described as a sacred flower of Arduinna, which may have you think that it's the plant you need to place on the altar. However, it's supposed to bring the blessing of a successful hunt - the other flower, Embersoul, brings the blessing of sanctuary. | |

Game Over | |
| Strange Horticulture (Video Game) / int_7228d0cb | comment |
Game Over: The horticulturalist lives with "A Rising Dread" caused by the inherently spooky nature of the region. If this meter fills, then their mind "shatters" and you are taken to a screen where you have to piece together the game's emblem or find the right key to unlock your ravaged brain. The dread meter can be filled by giving the wrong plant to a customer, failing to brew an elixir correctly, or going to the wrong place at the wrong time (like a place where murder has just happened). | |

Eldritch Abomination: The Servant. It's an ancient spirit, also known as the Dendrew, worshiped by a seriously dodgy cult. It might have obeyed Thea when she first summoned it, but it was so powerful that she needs serious help from you to maintain the slightest control over it. | |
