Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a fast-paced game may find the garden-growing loop too gradual.
- Players who want a tightly directed sequence of objectives may not enjoy choosing how to build and expand the garden.
- Players looking for combat-focused gameplay may find that warding off visitors is only one part of garden tending.
Our take on Plantera 2: Golden Acorn
The likely sticking point is the ongoing garden loop: progress centers on harvesting, unlocking items and expanding the plot. Players who want a defined sequence of missions may hit a wall when the game leaves garden layout and growth choices largely to them.
What is Plantera 2: Golden Acorn?
Begin with a small plot and a few vegetable crops, then earn money and experience by harvesting to unlock additional plants and garden items.
Place crops, bushes, trees, animals and decorations around a magical oak tree, which grows as the garden expands. Blue Mellows can gather items and harvest plants, including while the game is not being played. Players can also harvest crops themselves, add items, and drive away visitors such as foxes, hogs and UFOs by punching them or placing defenses like guard dogs, fences and bees. The garden can be arranged freely, with flowers, mushrooms and water plants among the decorations. Continue tending the oak to collect Golden Acorns as it grows toward the sky.
