I have lots of memories playing this game as a little kid. Back when life was simpler. The story is small, yet I never seem to get bored of it this game. The open world is very big and a blast to explore. The music is nice and calming. Honestly just a nostalgic classic I'd love to own and play DRM free.

Description

 

While out exploring the galaxy with MOM, BUD’s parental spaceship, she goes to pieces. Like, literally – MOM’s all over the place. The positioning of that moon was terribly inconsiderate. Now her ship parts are scattered far and wide across an entire alien planet so rich in flora and fauna it would make even the most jaded galactic gardener’s head spin. It’s up to BUD to collect all her parts and get them back to the moon. 
 

  • Join this adorable wobbly robot on his fantastical acroBUDic adventure to the moon.
  • Collect MOM’s ship parts with the help of your new friend POD. She likes planets. A lot.
  • Explore an entire alien planet filled with excitement and wonder. And a Flungus.
  • Walking’s overrated. Tuck BUD into Ball mode to boost, bounce and roll around the planet.
  • Take to the air and soar between floating islands like a big metal bird with the Power Glider.
  • Exercise those green fingers and overcome obstacles by spawning any plant you’ve found with the Floradex 3000.
  • Ride giant Starplants into the sky (yes, we know what they look like…)

This quickfire follow-up to one of 2015's real gems doesn't make any big steps forward, but it's a charmer all the same.

7.8/10
Grow Up doesn't feel terribly different from Grow Home other than its larger world, but its main achievement is to strengthen some of its predecessor's weak points. The drive to climb to the top of everything remains, but here it's improved on with new methods of climbing and flying, and the option to toss down plants that serve as tools for any situation. The camera sometimes complicates this, but not enough to bury the charm of the original.

A superb remix of Grow Home that gives BUD a bigger sandbox to play in, at the expense of some challenge.
