Keep your space station safe

Growbot is a point-and-click adventure where you save your home and alien friends as a wide-eyed robot
  • Play as Nana the growbot and save your home
  • Lovely artwork and charming characters
  • Coming to mobile on August 7th

With Mutropolis launching today, it seems we've got plenty to point and click at on mobile, and from the same studio too. Growbot is a charming hand-drawn adventure that's making the leap to iOS and Android on August 7th, which means it won't be long now until you can help your lovable little robot save her home from evil crystalline forces. 

As the titular growbot, you'll embark on a 2D quest across a space station that's filled with all kinds of alien plants. There are plenty of quirky characters to meet along the way, and it's up to you to repair what's broken to save the station and keep the peace.

Based on the trailer, it doesn't seem like Nana is a particularly talkative growbot, and if it's going to be filled with wordless dialogue, it's likely going to be an evocative ride. Given how much I absolutely loved The Longing, Growbot looks like it's going to be just as memorable, especially since Nana has a similar wide-eyed look with the Shade.
