Wild Roots

Wild Roots is a farming, cooking and defense game. You grow crops and raise livestock, use their abilities to protect your farm from critters, then harvest ingredients, cook meals and sell them to customers. Earnings let you expand the farm and kitchen and unlock upgrades.

Build your farm

You start with a small, overgrown plot. Chop down trees and break apart stones to make room for crop plots and animal pens. As you progress, you unlock new locations, land, rare crops, more animals and advanced tools.

Defend against critters

Critters try to steal your crops and animals, and become more determined as your farm grows. Place crops strategically, combine plants and animals with different defensive abilities, unlock tools and upgrade your protection to withstand waves of attackers.

Plants can slow critters with stunning pollen or fire seeds at them. Examples include Corn Cannons, which knock critters back with kernels; Spicy Peppers, which release a fiery blast; and Sticky Vines, which slow them down. Livestock also helps defend the farm: Battle Chickens peck and chase smaller critters, Stomping Cows shake the ground to scare off intruders, and Rolling Pumpkins charge at critters and send them flying.

Cook and sell

Use harvested ingredients to make dishes, from farm-fresh meals to gourmet feasts, and sell them to customers for money. Growing different crops and livestock unlocks recipes, while kitchen upgrades improve your cooking tools for faster meal preparation. You can also customize your farm and experiment with different combinations of plants and animals.
