Plant Tycoon And Depression: Getting Better
In-between gaming
I spent part of the weekend with Plant Tycoon [official site] open. I was playing Destiny and checking back between rounds of a PvP event to see which plants had sold and which had bloomed.
The plants take a while to mature and in the meantime all you can do is watch them, maybe picking up the bug catching net a few times to swipe at the insects in order to add them to your collection. That's why I like having Plant Tycoon open while I work or while I play rounds of another game.
Sometimes I fall into the trap of watching and waiting, whiling away the time as I keep too much of a close eye on my plants. I hate those times because I walk away from them feeling like I've wasted part of my life.
