The farming and life sim game Village Monsters receives huge gardening update!
As you know, I have been keeping an eye on Village Monsters for some time now. It is a relaxing and whimsical adventure game developed by sole creator, Josh Bossie. Take on the role of the last man living in a world inhabited by monsters. With everything that you’d expect from a good life-sim game, with a monstrous twist, Village Monsters is one farming adventure that you won’t want to miss out on.
Now with more gardening.
The most recent update basically revamps the entire gardening aspect. New plants have arrived, and a couple others have either bee re-worked, or just removed due to impracticality. Now, the update is far too large for me to give all the details here, but I will cover the primary aspects. The full details of the gardening update can be found on the Village Monsters Steam page.
“You may now Cultivate plants in your garden. This allows you to perform actions such as watering the plant, adding items to the soil, etc. in order to encourage its growth.”
“Plants can now breed to create new plants automatically.”
“Basic crossbreeding has been added: the look and base plant attributes are based on the mother plant, while growth rates are based on the father plant.”
These few changes barely scratch the surface of what is new in Village Monsters. Josh is always super busy, plugging away to do everything in his power to make Village Monsters a wonderful gaming experience for all.

One of my favorite indie games, Village Monsters, has been making leaps and bounds in production.
I absolutely love Village Monsters! Not too long ago, I even got the chance to sit down with the developer, Josh Bossie, to get the inside scoop on what Village Monsters is all about. So in case you missed it, you can find everything you need to know about the basics right there.
Since then, there has been a lot going on in the world of Village Monsters. The biggest probably being that there is a new demo now available, so we all get to check out the updates to Village Monsters for ourselves. As for what changes have come recently…there are plenty.
Village Monsters Update
One of my favorite new additions in the Village Monsters update is the inclusion of taming creatures. You can get your own critter to follow you, and share all the joy and tribulations on your journey with a little partner.
There is also now a jobs board to help keep you busy in between primary goals. You will use the board to help you get closer with some of the monsters around town. Complete a little mini game (or job) for a character, and they will grow to like you that much more.
Some of the changes made the game a bit more aesthetically pleasing. Lots of adjustments to lighting have made the game easier on the eyes. Changes to the music and sound effects have also given the game a more soothing feel.
