rainbowgames | Forget-Me-Not: My Organic Garden (PC) warnings

Forget-Me-Not: My Organic Garden is a visual novel/time management game by Cavyhouse, available from Playism. I was really enchanted with the art style and the idea of an organ harvesting nature game (you grow organs on trees and deliver them to customers), and I was really amped to play this, but it got kinda overwhelming kinda quickly. This post isn't really a review, though, it's a warning for some of the subject matter in the game that I wish I'd gotten a heads up on before I played.

I haven't gotten very far (I'm still in chapter 2) and I don't know how much more of the game I'll play, but here are some details. Warning: discussion of animal cruelty and death under the cut.

So one of the recurring themes in this game is what the organs you grow are used for. The organs can be placed into dolls or animals to allow them to move and speak. A little girl comes into the shop with her pet cat, saying that she wants to put an organ into it so that it can speak. Irene (the proprietor, and your boss) tells her that it's not a good idea and she shouldn't do it, because the living soul of the cat will conflict with the manmade soul of the organs. The girl leaves. Later, she comes back with her dead cat, saying she killed it so that she could put an organ inside it and there wouldn't be any conflict.

(Pictured above is a similar customer, who wants an organ to put inside his doll. I haven't seen how that plays out yet, though.)
