A new demo for Garden and a Goat, the adorable animal collecting and ecosystem restoration game inspired by the beloved life sim Viva Piñata, welcomes never-before-seen animal and plant variants to PC Today. Contemplation Games’ new demo releases early before its inclusion in June Steam Next Fest!
Embark on a wholesome mission to help ecosystems across the multiverse. Carefully cultivate each biome by clearing debris, repairing the soil, and planting plants, all to coax native wildlife to return home. Expand and nurture the environment with the help of high-tech gadgets, drones, scanners, and the multiverse’s resident goat, of course!
Persuade precious critters to stay and become permanent residents by crafting treats, giving them lots of pets, and decorating the gardening to their liking.
Collect more than 50 lovable animal variants in the upcoming Early Access launch this summer!
Garden and a Goat will launch on PC via Steam Early Access in Q3 2026 with English language support.
