Raise a garden — from the dead! Greenhearth Necromancer is a cozy, witchy, semi-idle game about caring for a balcony garden — living and undead plants alike! Grow cute plants, cast spells, and brew potions, enjoying the chill idle gameplay and balcony ambience throughout your day.

Greenhearth Necromancer is a cozy, witchy, semi-idle game where life and death are both parts of growth. Raise living and undead plants, brew potions, cast spells, and build a balcony garden that thrives on cycles of care, decay, and resurrection.

Blending farming-sim comfort with idle-game flow, it’s a calming, vibey companion you can leave running in the background or step into to conjure more in-depth play. Steal a moment to balance water and fertilizer, ward off pests, experiment with magic, or explore the narrative at your own pace — with relaxing bursts of gardening, progression, and community connection woven throughout.

Play as a young socially-anxious necromancer building a thriving garden on the balcony they inherited from their late grandmother.

She was a green witch with a renowned garden, but you never had the same green thumb. Instead, you found your talents in necromancy, which makes a grim situation a little more hopeful when all her plants wither away. Use your magic to raise undead plants and tend their spectral flowers.

Learn spells, resurrect plants, and attract ghostly bees to generate mystical honey. Then take your goods to the local market, spend time with your co-op neighbors, and try to balance your social battery as you find your place in the Greenhearth community.

As you get to know your neighbors — and your grandmother’s familiar spirit, Compostifer — you’ll uncover a heartfelt narrative about community, grief, early adulthood, and the natural ebb and flow of magic. Delve into the interconnectedness of life and death with writing from the BAFTA-nominated writer of I Was a Teenage Exocolonist.

1. Care for your garden — nurture living and undead plants to make a balcony oasis uniquely your own.
2. Cast powerful spells — resurrect withered plants, speed growth, repel pests, and even alter plant traits with necromantic energy.
3. Embrace the cycle of life and undeath — bring dead plants back to (un)life and discover special traits and yields unlocked through transformation.
4. Redefine failure — every shrivelled leaf is just the start of another journey!
5. Idle, stress-free play — let the game run while you work or study, and return when you’re ready for meaningful bursts of care.

Engage in narrative storylets to discover the lives of your co-op neighbors and find your place in the Greenhearth community. Along the way, piece together your grandmother’s magical research with the help of her quirky familiar spirit, Compostifer, uncovering a heartfelt narrative about connection, grief, and the natural ebb and flow of magic.

Choose from four radio stations to set the vibe — from lofi beats to calm ambience to productivity drum & bass — or simply enjoy the peaceful sounds of your garden as the wind dances through the leaves.
