Very chill and interesting idea, i really put this one on my favorites, this could be a neat educational game to teach kids about trees and the enviroment, maybe adding more trees varieties , also i love the mice , good job!

Lovely wee game!

I have never played a Root sim before and I wish so badly that I could either pierce a mouse with the root or at least push a rock in into the rat and kill it. Too dark? I like the tree keeps growing/becoming bigger and that you can see water navigate through the root system.

The vibe of this is immaculate.

Great fun. Think I got stuck on a rock that had wedged itself or something but really cool look

Some of the puzzles need a few tries to get things lined up. R/Z to undo and try again!

Nooooo I got stuck just before the aquafer! Really cool to see the roots up top grow thicker :) I mole would fit right in with our game as well. Nice work!
