Bleeding Roots
A downloadable game
Having gone through some hard times recently, you find solace in tending to your garden.
While searching for new books on botanics, you stumble upon one that you haven’t seen before. It is somehow enthralling, almost as if it’s calling you. As you begin reading, it quickly becomes clear that it speaks of alternative ways of taking care of plants. It fills you with a feeling of unease, but… maybe it’ll grow into a new friend.
Bleeding Roots is a short horror walking simulator taking place throughout the seasons. Water the plants in your garden, learn about them, and grow along them over time. Immerse yourself in a story about loss, grief and obsession. The controls are simple, moving the character through tank controls and reading up on the environment with an interact key.
