Dustbunny: Emotion to Plants is a heartwarming new game available on Android, blending cuteness with deep emotional exploration. The game introduces you to your guide, Empathy, a gentle rabbit who navigates you through your mental landscape. Developed by Antientropic, this therapeutic simulation game is inspired by the creative director's personal journey during the Covid lockdown, merging cozy room decoration with a profound emotional experience.
What Are the Features of Dustbunny: Emotion to Plants?
Your journey begins in a serene, abandoned room where you, with the help of Empathy, unlock aspects of your inner self by capturing 'emotibuns.' These elusive creatures symbolize your hidden emotions. The transformative moment occurs when you nurture these emotibuns, turning them into vibrant plants that not only beautify your room but also symbolize the enlightenment of your inner world. As you progress, your space becomes a lush sanctuary filled with unique plants like monsteras, philodendrons, alocasia, and even rare unicorn hybrids, each reflecting your personal growth.
The game is enriched with various minigames and activities that enhance your bond with your sanctuary and its flora. Engage in fun tasks such as flying Paper Planes, concocting different flavors of Cup Ramyun, and playing on a retro Gameboi. These activities not only provide you with energy but also collectables that are essential for tending to your growing garden. With over 20 different Care Cards, you can perform nurturing actions like watering, misting, and observing, using a variety of tools to help your plants thrive.
It’s a Personal Adventure but with a Social Twist
Dustbunny: Emotion to Plants features a unique 'Doors' system, allowing you to personalize your door with symbols and stickers that tell your own story.
