Dustbunny: Emotion to Plants Is a Therapeutic Sim, Out Now

Dustbunny: Emotion to Plants, a charming new Android game, tackles personal emotional well-being in a unique and engaging way. The game begins with a meeting with Empathy, a helpful rabbit guide who leads you through a personalized mental landscape.

Developed by Antientropic, this therapeutic life simulator blends cozy room decorating with a profound emotional journey. The game's creative director drew inspiration from their own experiences during the COVID-19 lockdown.

Key Features of Dustbunny: Emotion to Plants:

You start in a tranquil, empty room. With Empathy's assistance, you collect "emotibuns," small, elusive creatures symbolizing hidden emotions. Nurturing these emotibuns transforms them into vibrant plants, illuminating both your virtual sanctuary and your inner world. Your collection will eventually include monsteras, philodendrons, alocasias, and even fantastical unicorn plant hybrids, reflecting your progress and growth.

The game features numerous mini-games and activities to enhance your connection with your space and plants. These include paper airplane flights, ramen flavor creation, and retro Game Boy gaming. These activities provide energy and collectibles to aid plant care. Over 20 care cards offer various actions like watering, misting, and observation, supported by a variety of tools.

A Personal Journey with Social Connection:

Dustbunny: Emotion to Plants incorporates a "Doors" feature. Players can personalize their door with stickers and symbols, showcasing their unique journey. Visiting other players' doors allows for message-leaving and shared growth experiences.

Empathy's guidance and activities are rooted in compassion-focused therapy and cognitive behavioral techniques. The game encourages self-care, self-acceptance, and self-love. Stickers and designs offer creative outlets for expressing thoughts and feelings in a calming manner.
