Project Flotsam is ultimately about overcoming grief and finding peace through gardening. Heather, the main character, gradually comes to terms with the troubled relationship with her deceased mother through the act of clearing away her forgotten witch’s garden and starting anew. Never having been gifted with the herb magics, through the interaction with the plants Heather discovers powers she didn’t think she had, and begins to see her world from a different perspective.
A beautiful, cozy, slice-of-life, narrative focused game that doesn’t shy away from the more melancholy and dark aspects of life we all have to go through at some point.
