Sprouts Adventure Review

Bring the Plant Creatures Back With Divine Strategy

Sprouts Adventure puts you as the deity of a race of plant creatures that are near extinction after a storm wiped out their city. The sprouts need your guidance to rebuild their city and replenish their numbers. Through construction, research and various collections you can help the sprouts return to their former glory as their egg shaped deity.

Start With 5 Sprouts

When a huge storm obliterates the sprouts' home and kills nearly all of them, it is up to you to help them rebuild. Only five sprouts and their egg shaped deity (which is you) remain after the storm. The village elders were all killed in the storm so the sprouts look to you for guidance. Each sprout requires four things: food, sleep, motivation and curiosity. Your ultimate goal is to make the sprouts self sufficient so that they can survive on their own.

Easy Controls

Controlling the game is very easy and only requires your mouse. To start a sprout on a task you just pick them up with the cursor and drop them where they need to be to complete the task.

Motivate Your Sprouts

You also have control of karma abilities. These include things like sunshine, rain and sprout eggs. The karma abilities help you progress through the game and complete tasks. The sprouts eat flowers, so growing flowers in a garden is necessary to keep the sprouts going. To keep the sprouts working, motivation and curiosity need to be kept up. To do this there are several options: the sprouts can play games, jump on a trampoline, take a hot air balloon or even visit the zoo. Many of these options won't be available until later in the game, but collecting items will raise motivation and curiosity.

Butterflies and stones are the collectible items in this game. Collecting items also earns karma points that unlock your abilities.

Average Graphics

The graphics are similar to most games in this genre and don't really stand out as anything special. Everything is 2D and you look down from an overhead viewpoint. The map is relatively small and everything is laid out for you. While the graphics aren't amazing they don't detract from the game and are well suited to the game.

The sound is mostly the sprouts talking as well as sound effects for various actions. Sometimes the dialogue can be witty which adds a bit of humor to the game. Overall the sound and graphics fit into the game well and add to the theme.

Drawbacks

One minor drawback to this game is the amount of time you have to spend keeping your sprouts happy. The four stats that each sprout has will drain during activities as well as over time. The sprouts will not meet these needs themselves so you will have to direct them to eat, sleep and play. When you have 12 sprouts, taking care of them all becomes a pretty daunting task. Once you get the hang of it and get into a rotation it is not too difficult, but it will still eat up the majority of your play time.

Conclusion - A Strong People Sim

Sprouts Adventure is a great simulation game. Through careful planning and care for your sprouts you will be able to watch the city rise after the great storm. All the action while being referred to as “the great one” is a great ego boost. The few minor drawbacks pale in comparison to the rest of the game. With its family friendly plant theme and easy controls, Sprouts Adventure is a game everyone can enjoy.
