Shoot & Sow

Shoot & Sow is a top-down arena shooter roguelite in which you control one of several characters and fight aggressive fruits and vegetables on a farm. You move between the farm’s islands, choose which plants grow on the next islands, and build up your character with weapons, items and talents.

The farm and its enemies

Each kind of plant has its own traits and attacks: carrots split in half when they die, eggplants sometimes charge at you, and grapes grow in groups. Each run has four cycles, ending with a large plant boss. Boss attacks become harder and more complex with each cycle; defeating a boss or dealing significant damage to it earns upgraded item boxes.

Build your character

You can buy weapons and items, and find boxes containing random items to strengthen your build. Weapons include melee, ranged, mortar, laser and elemental types, each with its own properties, attack patterns and set bonuses. You can also plant seeds in planters to grow powerful items that activate under certain conditions. Items left in their boxes evolve into different items over time, so you can collect what suits your build and leave other seeds to grow longer.

Defeating bosses lets you complete your talent tree and further upgrade your characters. As you progress, you earn stars to spend on character upgrades and to unlock weapons, giving you more ways to fight the plants.
