leaved.top was founded in 2022 by a team of nature lovers and narrative game developers with a mission to create a calming, immersive experience that connects players with the natural world. Based in Portland, Oregon, our team of 8 developers, botanists, and writers combines expertise in environmental storytelling, plant biology, and serene game design to craft peaceful forest adventures.
Our flagship title, Leaved: Whispering Woods, invites players to explore a magical, ever-changing forest across four seasons—spring blooms, summer foliage, autumn harvests, and winter quiet. Players can cultivate over 40 unique plants, solve gentle puzzles (e.g., guiding fireflies, restoring streams), and uncover a heartfelt story about forest conservation and connection. The game features watercolor-style graphics, ambient forest sounds (rustling leaves, bird songs, rainfall), and no time limits or pressure, making it perfect for relaxation.
What sets us apart is our blend of education and storytelling. We work with botanists to ensure plant behaviors and forest ecosystems are accurate, and weave subtle conservation messages into the narrative. Our community is focused on mindfulness, with forums for sharing nature photos, gardening tips, and in-game experiences. We also host seasonal events (e.g., spring seed exchanges, autumn leaf-collecting challenges) that encourage players to engage with nature both virtually and in real life.
Since launching, leaved.top has grown to over 95,000 registered players, including mindfulness practitioners, nature enthusiasts, and casual gamers seeking calm. Players praise the game’s soothing atmosphere and educational value, while parents appreciate its family-friendly content. Community feedback has driven major updates, including new plant species, a cooperative garden mode, and a mobile version optimized for touch controls. We also partner with environmental organizations to donate a portion of in-game purchase proceeds to reforestation efforts.
Looking to the future, we’re expanding Leaved: Whispering Woods with a "forest journal" feature that lets players document their discoveries, a wildlife interaction system (e.g., feeding birds, helping squirrels), and more detailed seasonal mechanics (e.g., frost patterns in winter, pollen spread in spring). We’re also developing a companion app that offers real-world gardening tips tailored to players’ locations.
At leaved.top, our mission is to foster a deeper connection with nature through peaceful, immersive gameplay. Whether you’re looking to unwind after a busy day or learn more about plants and forests, we welcome you to join our community of nature lovers.
