About this game

When Mother Nature speaks to you...  will you listen?

Set in early 1900s England, Secrets In Green is a historical slice of life/horror visual novel with an intriguing mystery.  

CONTENT WARNING:  THIS GAME EXPLORES THEMES OF MENTAL ILLNESS, AND DEPICTS MOMENTS OF MILD THREAT AND VIOLENCE THAT SOME MAY FIND DISTURBING.

Our protagonist, Alma, is sent to a cottage in the countryside to recover from an unfortunate episode of mental illness.  As a lover of plants, she finds peace tending to the overgrown garden on the property.  However, while admiring the large ivy growing across its fence, she discovers a leaf bearing a single written word - hello.  Naturally, her father and carer brush it off as nothing but a hallucination - a symptom of her hysteria.  Little do they know that this message is very, very real.  

Alma must now fight a battle that has been fought again and again throughout history - the struggle of making yourself heard and respected as a female in a very male dominated world, in a period of history where women were downtrodden and dismissed.  Can she solve the mystery before it's too late?

This curious visual novel features:

  • Fully illustrated backgrounds and character graphics

  • A 14,000 word story

  • Partial voice acting

  • Impactful player choices, and three possible endings to achieve

  • An evocative, original soundtrack

  • A strong message of female empowerment!
