    The UnderGarden's unique elements come together to make for an enjoyable and relaxing game experience.

    For those that are willing to give it a shot, The Undergarden is just a joy to be in. It's so peaceful and wonderful that everything else doesn't seem to matter. It doesn't rush you and it's not too challenging and is perfect for a little break from the hectic real life.

    The Undergarden is laid back, gorgeous, and pretty damn weird - the main character is some kind of strange grinning monkey thing and your mission is to grow flowers in underground caverns.

    With a decent number of areas to clear, that's pretty much it. [Jan 2011, p.74]

    The Undergarden really is best used as a palette cleanser, a game to break up the monotony of blood and violence gamers seem to revel in.

    While the game is good in small chunks, it gets monotonous quickly and doesn't have much replay value.

    I can certainly applaud The Undergarden's developers for trying something different, but the concept here is not nearly strong enough to support the bland and pedestrian gameplay. Even casual games still demand a level of interest from the player, and The Undergarden doesn't have it.
