Thumb CultureApr 20255/5 starsI’ll be honest the more I played Tiny Garden, the more it won me over. I’ve got lost in trying to collect all the seeds and plant types. Deciding between prioritising buying new seed types or more customisation options. Puzzling together how to get the right soil type in the right place in order to maximise my space. It’s been like a cosy puzzler but without the stress. Ao Norte and Super Rare Originals are currently offering the game at an introductory price of £9.59, and honestly you should be snapping it up. Even for it’s full price of £11.99 this is a cosy game that packs a lot in a compact environment. I said it in my preview, but I’m saying it again louder. If you ever wished your Polly Pocket/Mighty Max toys were real, Tiny Garden is the game for you. I award Tiny Garden the Thumb Culture Platinum Award, and I’m off to buy the DLC now too!

LadiesGamers.comYvonne van GelovenApr 2025Tiny Garden ticks all the boxes for me. Gardening in miniature surroundings, approaching it like a casual game with strategic planning to unlock all plant seeds, types of soil and decoration options. It’s very cute, the decorations are just like in a doll’s house, and the added letters tell a good story. Though I like my Steam Deck, I’m always more at home with my Nintendo Switch for handheld gaming. So when I review a game on Steam Deck, I ask myself: would I double-dip if it were released on the Switch? The answer here is a firm yes, so for me, Tiny Garden gets our highest rating.

ImpulsegamerApr 20254/5Tiny Garden is a relaxing puzzle game that perfectly encapsulates the phrase 'Easy to learn, hard to master'. A wonderful combination of farming sim, puzzle game, and light life sim. It's very easy to lose hours planning out the perfect layout to get maximum yield on a particular crop that's necessary to advance.

MKAU GamingStacie CottonApr 20257/10Tiny Garden is such a comfort game, but it is very much a complete cycle of monotony. The inspiration is great on the surface level, and I did enjoy it for its calming experience, but I needed a bit more to dig into.
