About this game
Pollinarium is a minimalist, turn-based farming strategy game. Draw cards, place plants and appliances, and adapt to each procedurally-generated garden. Plan for synergy, adapt to each layout, and collect your harvest!
Choose your cards!
Choose your cards each day. These contain a mix of plants and appliances, like onions, flowers, or berry bushes, and supportive tools like bee hotels, ponds, or rainwater tanks. Different card types unlock different strategies.
Place your plants and appliances strategically!
Every plant has distinct traits: growth speed, regrowth time, harvest value, and how it interacts with neighbors. Some thrive with friends nearby, others... not so much. Appliances give area-wide bonuses, helping boost your yield if placed wisely.
Grow your garden!
Pass the day and watch plants evolve through multiple growth stages. Regrowth cycles, timing, and synergy effects all come into play.
Collect your harvest!
No rush, no watering, just strategic planting and harvesting to reach the necessary points within the given days. Experiment freely to unlock strategic combinations and maximize your gardens’ harvest!

Choose Your Gardener!!!
Hi everyone!A new feature has arrived in Pollinarium: Gardeners!At the start of each run, you'll now pick a Gardener, each with their own unique perks and tradeoffs, that changes how you approach your garden. It will allow you to rethink and adapt your strategy every time.Here are a few examples of the perks and tradeoffs:Minimalist: Positive synergies are worth 1.5x more... but you can't replant once placed.Permaculturist: Harvests are worth 20% more... but each day is 15% shorter.Tinkerer: Appliance effects expand to 2 tiles... but once placed, they can’t be moved.Each of the 10 Gardeners offers a new way to think, plan, and grow.Status update: I’m currently running a limited playtest ahead of the demo release, it's the best way to shape things before launch!(Psst… here’s a peek at the updated UI 👀)What kind of perk and tradeoff would you add to a new gardener? I’d love to hear your ideas.Happy planting 🧅🥔🍅! (and btw... Join the newsletter here →)Read full article on Community Announcements (nomadicrobotstudio)AnnouncementsOfficial
