It's 2025, and you plant a small tree seedling, imagining its future.

Bonsai trees can live hundreds of years. Who will inherit this living being? What will that person think of you in 2178? Will they think of you at all?

Use simple brush or pen strokes to shape your bonsai. On each page, you'll trace your previous bonsai and add one more stroke. Watch your bonsai grow bigger, page after page. Draw impulsively, or draw with intention.

As you play, the game asks you: Who are you? What do you hope for the future?

Brian ★★★★★

I sat down with the seedling and the journal last night, and the weight of imagining someone in 2178 reading my notes about this tree made me tear up. The interactive time-jump mechanic feels surprisingly personal, not gimmicky.

Hazel ★★★★★

The seedling came with a tiny, handwritten note about its potential lifespan, and that alone made me stop and think about what legacy I'm leaving. I’ve already spent an hour just sketching out the future caretaker’s personality in my mind.
