I always enjoy checking out the demos from these events. Has anyone else tried any yet? Would love to hear about any fun demos you've found.

Nice reviews. I hadn't heard of Botany Manor or Horticular and they both look interesting, I'll check them out. Getting 10 hours out of a demo is crazy, really good "selling" point to check it out.

The game mechanic loops around unlocking new plants in Horticular are very satisfying to me, and I especially enjoyed building habitats to attract new animals to the garden. Wanting to collect all the plants and animals in the demo really sucked me in! :)

I tried it out and loved it. Great rec and glad I heard about it. Had to stop myself after an hour to save more of the experience for the full game, but it's a great demo and I can see how you could lose a lot of time to it.
