About the game
Grow, shape, and sell your own fully simulated bonsai trees to adorable animal customers! Turn your humble little bonsai cart into a thriving business on a cozy island.
Original Steam description
Welcome to Bonsai Island! Grow and shape your own bonsai, share your creations with the world, and build a thriving business serving adorable animal customers. Help the tanukis restore their bonsai park and turn your humble little cart into a beloved island shop.
Fully Simulated Bonsai
Every tree has a life of its own, with every leaf individually simulated. Starting from seeds or wildlings, your bonsai grow and respond to your care. Prune branches, wire them into new shapes, and watch your trees develop over time. Shape each tree into your unique creation!
Grow at Your Own Pace
Don’t want to wait years for your bonsai to grow? Fast-forward through time and watch your trees develop in satisfying timelapses. Just don’t skip ahead too far! Your plants still need water and care. Find your own rhythm between tending to your trees and watching them grow into magnificent bonsai.
From a Little Cart to a Thriving Bonsai Shop
Everyone has to start somewhere! Begin your journey with a humble bonsai cart. Take pictures of your creations and share them online to attract visitors to your island. Once they arrive, sell your bonsai to adorable animal customers and fulfill their requests to build your reputation. With your island growing in popularity, you'll unlock new opportunities and get a chance to turn your little cart into a thriving business.
