Description

Grow your garden and unlock the Magic Plants!

Plant Tycoon® is a gardening sim game where you nurture plants and experiment with increasingly rare and valuable species. The object is to breed and cross breed plants until you find the 6 Magic Plants of Isola and solve the genetic puzzle. You start with limited cash, a handful of seeds, some soil and water. Grow plants, organize and harvest seeds, monitor your plants' health, age and maturity, and protect your plants from dehydration and infestations. Sell some of your creations to fund your research, buy better supplies to use in your Nursery, and purchase ornaments to customize your virtual garden. This is the same best-selling Mac and Windows game, now in a universal app for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch, so you can take your greenhouse full of plants with you wherever you go!

A Love/Hate Thing

Let me start this review by saying I LOVE THIS GAME. I played it on pc as a child and was delighted to find an app now, and have found it to be extremely relaxing and helps calm my anxiety. Way better than any gardening app made specifically for that purpose.

Now, the bad part is that you will have to spend 5 “plant bucks” (the in game real money currency) to complete the game. You have to buy the top tier soil if you want to “win” the game by breeding ultra rare plants, and there is no way to occasionally win one or two of the real money currency, like other games. This is very frustrating because there should be a way to win the game without spending money if the game is advertised as free. I don’t have a problem buying plant bucks to speed along the game or buy extras, like the other plant bucks items, but the soil is over the line annoying.

In addition, I wish there was a plant index or something where I could look at all the plants I have collected and check them off!! Would love that!!!

In app purchases ruined the game

It is bad enough that you have to buy games twice - for PC and for IPad. But for this game, you can earn all the dollars you want, you still have to buy plant bucks for certain upgrades...really to complete the game. And they are expensive. What a ripoff!!! Even worse, I played the game through once, spent about $20 on upgrades and am trying to play it again...the upgrades are all gone. You'll note the positive reviews are for people who play it on PC, where there are no up sells, or are writing about playing to years ago. Yes, I used to love the game on PC.

UPDATEI heard from the web developer for IPad about the outrageous greed of,requiring upgrades just to play through the game...upgrades which must be repurchased every time you play the game. Received back an arrogant email that I could get all the seeds without upgrades. I KNOW that!. But you can not buy seed boxes, many supplies, many nursery upgrades just by breeding and selling plants as you did on the PC Game. You have to purchase plant bucks via In app,purchase. A total rip off. You NEED seed boxes to have room to breed plants. I want MY money back after winingn the game all my in app purchase have vanished AND I want my in app purchases refunded.

3 star review

I rated it a 3 because you need plant bucks which cost real money. You can beat it without the gold soil and using only one plant box the tick is having the cheats near you. Only have the fourpetal maple till you get all the blue tools. After, you can breed the rose fern and the venomous grass. Use those till have everything but the gold soil. Have 2-3 thousand coins before breeding to get the rare magic plants. You will need to check on the plants every 10-20 minutes and put the rescue plant formula on them, so they don’t die.
Yes much of the money earned at this point would go to the formula.

To keep a steady supply of money, only plant 1-2 of the rare magic plants. Plant lots of venomous grass too.
