Indie developing duo Campfire Studio has released Dream Garden, a relaxing garden design simulator.
Dream Garden lets players build their own Japanese-inspired gardens. Not only will players be decorating their zen garden space, they’ll also choose the plants and landscapes like pebbles, ponds, hills, and rivers.
Players are also able to use various rake tools to create patterns in the sand. Not only does this add to the visual aesthetic of the garden, but it’s also incredibly relaxing.
It’s a virtual zen garden that gives players space to let stress out, similar to the popular sandy zen gardens that people use to relax.
There’s zero pressure in the game to do anything — players are spurred on by their own creativity to create. There are no time limits or boundaries to keep that creativity in check.
Players can check out Dream Garden with its launch trailer below:
Campfire Studio also shared several screenshots to show off the game, which fans can view below:
Dream Garden is available now for PC. It’s currently on sale for 15% to celebrate its launch.
This isn’t Campfire Studio’s first relaxing design sim. In 2023, it released My Dream Setup, a sim focused on building PC setups. This eventually expanded with various DLC packs that let players build kitchens, bathrooms, and garages. It also added pets and rig options for various kinds of PC setups.
