Players explore a vast open world filled with floating islands, majestic caves and waterfalls, taking on the role of BUD (Botanical Utility Droid), a child-like android sent in search of new plant species capable of oxygenating his home world. You grow your giant star plant, reshaping the game world and climbing higher and higher.

"Grow Home offers the opportunity to discover a singular open-world based on two main pillars: Climbing and Exploration.
Climbing: The world of Grow Home is built for vertical exploration and the unique climbing mechanic brings unprecedented freedom. Players control BUD’s hands independently to grab onto any surface, scaling the giant Star Plant as it grows and expands.
Exploration: There are no set paths in Grow Home. Players are free to explore the many micro islands and hidden caves in this fun and beautiful open world. Every island encountered is scattered with hidden crystals to power the players’ journey and expand their abilities."
