Scrap Garden is a puzzle-platform adventure video game developed by Flazm and released on May 7, 2016.[1] It was published in 2016 for Steam, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Gameplay

The game is about the adventures of Canny, a lonely robot, who awakens in a post-apocalyptic world to find all other robots shut down and seized up after a dragon destroyed their only power source. The player has to try to bring back power and life to their planet. The world has 6 unique locations. The play has to fight bosses known as "Titans". Finding hidden collectables in the map unlocks extra content.[2]

Release

Scrap Garden was announced in April 2015 on GamesJamKanobu, where it won 2nd place in the Game Design category and earned a Best Unity Game nomination. Scrap Garden was in Steam Greenlight until its release on May 7, 2016.[2]

Reception

The game received mixed reviews on Metacritic.[3] Reviewers said that Scrap Garden was a charming 3D platformer with a masterfully constructed storyline, good for spending an afternoon or two on, and its low difficulty and simple gameplay makes it a decent point of entry for children or beginners to the genre.[1][7][8] The game was cited as a game with a great idea, but the execution fell flat.[4][10] It was stated to be an interesting indie project with a nice plot and gameplay,[6] but there were some annoying bugs and boring puzzles.[9] It was also said that Scrap Garden was just like its protagonist: it may look a little dented, but its heart is in the right place.[1]
