Welsh developer Cloth Cat Games has announced Planted!, a unique cooperative board game that combines gardening simulation and arena combat for up to four players. The game, developed as a passion project for five years, challenges players to farm produce and throw them at targets and opponents to score points in chaotic multiplayer battles.
Players will need to strategically manage their agricultural production, deciding whether to use fertilizer for bigger harvests, steal from opponents, or deploy power-ups to achieve victory. The game promises “cultivated chaos” across eight different environments, each offering unique challenges and gameplay twists, including potato turrets and explosive weed bombs.
Planted! caters to different gaming styles with local and online multiplayer support, as well as cross-play functionality between PC and consoles. Single-player players aren’t left out either, as the game includes a single-player campaign set in the competitive world of professional gardening. Players can choose from different characters, each with their own personality and style.
The game will launch on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch, with digital and physical releases planned. Publisher Curveball Games expressed enthusiasm for the project, noting how the concept immediately caught their attention when Cloth Cat Games introduced the “horticultural combat game”.
More information on Planté! can be found on Cloth Cat Games’ social media channels as development continues.
