Walkthrough — A Botany Manor Guide

When you start the game, go to the door, find a letter and a parcel lying on the table. Examine the letter and open the package. Open and read the book lying inside (optional) and then remove it. You may now leave this room.

Chapter 1

After exiting the cactarium, look to the left side where there is a workbench with pots. Walk over to it and study the planting instructions. Since we already have the pot on the saucer, add soil by interacting with the bag it is in. Then look to the left and collect Windmill Wort seeds to add to your seed inventory (and your herbarium). Select the new seeds in your seed inventory and plant them. Finally, water the seed from the watering can.

Growth requires a very specific temperature. We will need to find three clues that will tell us the exact temperature. Step away from the pot and go to the vent elsewhere in the conservatory. Examine the postcard lying next to the newspaper. Turn the card over to get the first clue: this plant only grows in Sicily. Now open your herbarium and add the postcard from the conservatory as a clue for this plant. The other two clues can be found on the board in the conservatory: the temperature chart and the wildflower illustrations.

Open the herbarium and add these clues to the correct plant. This completes the study and you can plant the plant. Take the pot with the germinated plant. Place it on the saucer near the heat sink. Then go to the giant boiler on the right side of the pouring station and turn the valve to the right so that the temperature arrow points to 60°. Go back to the Heat Diverter and open it. Eventually the plant will begin to bloom and you will get rid of the fog in the area.

Finally you can leave the conservatory. Follow the path from the conservatory to the locked gates of the manor house. Turn around and follow the path to reach the mailbox. Take the key under the mailbox and then return to the gate, which can now be opened. From this point you can explore the grounds of the manor, but you must enter the building itself to continue the game. By the front door, find the potting station, but as there is nothing to plant at the moment, walk past it and use the front door.
