Helle's Undersea City Project - Bringing Air to The Garden - Grow and expand the land with air, aiming to rebuild the undersea city with a lone girl, Hele! A new type of undersea city-building simulation game!
At the core of the gameplay, players must manage the city's air supply by strategically placing "Mira's Flowers" - special plants that generate and distribute air to the various structures. Balancing air production and consumption is crucial, as buildings cannot function without a steady air supply. To cultivate the land and allow for more Mira's Flowers, players must accumulate "prosperity value" by utilizing the city's facilities, gradually raising the land grade and expanding the city's foothold.
The game offers over 50 unique buildings, each classified into four main categories: Dwellings, Production Facilities, Processing Facilities, and Commercial Facilities. Players must strategically place and manage these structures, considering their individual characteristics and functions, to ensure the city's growth and economic prosperity. Effective facility management is key, as players must connect buildings to the road network and maintain a continuous air supply.
Players can venture out into the deep sea to uncover new building recipes, Mira's Flower seeds, and other valuable resources. These exploration missions introduce an element of risk and resource management, as players must carefully balance the expedition's parameters, such as HP, air, and payload, to ensure a successful return. The research system allows players to unlock new capabilities, such as area liberation and special events, further expanding the gameplay and progression.
The game's pixel-art style and the endearing cast of characters, including the main protagonist Hele, create a warm and inviting atmosphere that players find deeply appealing. The narrative, which explores the backstory of the abandoned undersea city, provides a compelling context for the player's efforts to rebuild and restore the city. The relatively approachable difficulty level and the ability to play at one's own pace make the game an enjoyable experience for both casual and more experienced city-building enthusiasts.
