Re: Video game about gardening

I have received several emails asking me to write about this game on Garden Rant.

It is by no means the first video game on gardening; I wrote about one a year or so back, Amy wrote about several (links below), and I'd be surprised if there were not one or two more.

But this one is getting serious press--maybe because they've been doing incessant PR. Good for them!
