About this game

Ever wondered 'what if I was a tree'? Seek no further, Heliotropism is here.


In this rogue-like tree-building game, your goal is to last long enough to bear fruit in a harsh environment. Grow your tree, manage your resources, obtain mutations, mitigate crises and survive cold winters to get to the fourth year.

Key Features

  • Resource management: Grow your tree carefully, spending energy that you generate to place tree parts so that you can generate more. Just beware of winter: no energy and no leaves means that the tree is dead
  • Evolve your tree: As you go through the game, you can collect a plethora of mutations that not only make your tree stronger but change the optimal playstyle to something unique every run.
  • Unpredicted Challenges: Survive different crises every playthrough, from a small breeze to forest fires, these are coming after your tree. Plan ahead and mitigate what you can, survival is not an easy task

To better suit your tree-growing needs, Heliotropism comes with:

  • Monthly updates
  • Customizable UI to fit your preferences.
  • 4 seasons with different effects on your tree
  • 100+ different mutations that buff up your tree in surprising ways
  • 10 Different crises to beat, as well as a challenging winter every year
  • 10 unlocks to enable even more content
  • A vast underground filled with aquifers, rocks and sigils
  • Hundreds of voice lines to keep you entertained while growing
