You have 7 days to uncover the mystery of the botany lab. To do so, you can interact with 3 items in the room per day. But choose your items carefully, because depending on your interactions, your deadline can take up to 3 different turns.

I started getting Annihilation vibes.  I want to play more times to see how things change, but there are so many games to try!

Cool game I love the idea and the creativity , overall a really impressive game !

I also like how you changed the background and stuff without me noticing, nice job!

Really impressive, never anticipated that ending

Thank you <3

This is fun! I keep on getting the burning down the lab ending, haha

Thank you <3 I’m so unsure when it comes to putting stuff out there, so I really appreciate your comment :D

The ending you got is probably the most common ending. There’s basically a ‘good’, ‘bad’ and ‘worst’ ending - this one’s the ‘bad’ ending. It does takes some consistency to get the other ones ;)
