Twin Sprouts is a fun little multiplayer gardening competition.
It’s a game where you and a friend need to compete to see who can grow the best garden and be the master gardener once and for all (until you play your next game)!
It’s a 3D platformer game where you need to grow plants by planting seeds and treating them with TLC. Doing so will help your plants produce some “joy orbs” which increase your score. The player with the best score at the end wins the game!
The game starts you both off on a remote island filled with trees, platforms, hills, and smaller islands. You need to scavenge it for seeds. Once you get seeds, you plant them in available soil patches. Then you collect “sun” (like Plants vs. Zombies) and water orbs. You place the orbs to feed the plant. Then the plant becomes happy and produces joy orbs. Collect the orbs and you get points. Get points and beat your friend.
But beware, there’s also a twist- your friend can steal your joy orbs as well. So you need to constantly watch the score tallies and do what you can to stay ahead.
Twin Sprouts offers local split-screen horizontal multiplayer. You can play with a friend using Xbox One controllers or keyboard/mouse for one player and the other on a controller or gamepad. The game is like a giant minigame packed into a 3D world with mild platforming elements. You can jump, glide, and run around, but besides that, it’s all about planting plants, tending to them, and getting joy orbs.
The game is actually pretty entertaining even with such a simple concept and the ability to play it with a keyboard and mouse is awesome if you don’t have controllers. You’ll need a big screen though- unless you don’t mind your horizontal view turning into portrait (lesson learned). It’s seriously addicting.
If you’re up for some adorable multiplayer action to play with your friend, give Twin Sprouts a try. It’s a cute little platformer minigame that’s bound to “grow” on you. Give a try using the link below and take your friend on!
