Tiny Garden (Steam) – Review

‘Tiny Garden’ by Ao Norte is a game with an interesting concept, and that, my friends, alone is commendable because thinking outside the box is rare. There is a loose narrative attached to this game through letters you unlock as you progress. It is quite a touching little story of
