I have become fully addicted to this game, and I love it so much, haven't run into any bugs at all but heeding the warning I did save multiple times. I really enjoy the story and characters and overall gameplay. So far I have had no bugs with the game, I look forward to playing more updates ^v^.
Not reviewing since this is not a finished product , so leaving a comment because it's an interesting game and I want to give some support to what is a good and promising game.
First as a disclaimer, I'm playing NSFW games for the corruption/bad_end and the genders involved is of neutral value to me . So M/M, M/F* , M/slugs, M/Slimes, M/bigger slugs and so on are all fine in my book
And in that sense Grove really delivers on what I'm looking for. It's interesting, minimizes repetitive content, and generally respects my time by not requiring grinding and having appropriate sized maps for the atmosphere it needs.
The game also works around it's limitation well with regards to the RPG maker engine. Stylistic drawings communicates the fantasy greatly, the sprites randomly bouncing/moving emphasizes the scenes well, enemies have their speed and movement adjusted to give a sense of personality and so on.
That said there are issues I've noticed that don't work well for me to varying degrees.
The game has some early game weirdness/lack of content where it feels noticeably less polish then later game content. This is understandable but I fear it will drive people away since the less developed parts of the game is presented first.
EG: The initial slimes corruption/bad ends is just too simple/short , and don't develop as cohesively as you go through the zone stuff***. The Bat Cave for reference is the best dungeon IMO as its more cohesive, and tells a better story in addition to having more interesting and longer scenes.
Additionally the accessories/items are also very samey and don't really feel good to use or distintive in their use case. Like 15% grapple buff is good but doesn't feel great cause you can't tell if it's working or not.
That said most of these are minor complaints. And otherwise the game is still a great time
*There's no explicit** M/F content AFAIK and I am fine with that . Normally I prefer a combo of MM/ MF for variety but Grove has a lot of variety already so i don't feel like I'm missing out on things
**Not unless you count the slugs as Female .
***The later slime mimics dungeon is much much more interesting . THe zone is faster to go through , more interesting, etc
i love this game the story is amazing and the artwork is amazing >/////< characters are well written and some of them are adorble i cant wait to see how the story will proceed
You can try it if you want, but you'll need JoiPlay, and "RPG Maker Plugin for JoiPlay" to make it work. It's... a bit of a compromised experience due to graphical issues and the like though, so it's not really recommended...
Still, if you're desperate, this is the best we can offer. Sorry, but the mobile emulators don't tend to jive well with our plugins and game systems.
If you are Chinese, you can go to the post bar and search for "grove", then download the share of the simulator to your phone. If not,then I'm sorry to interrupt.
I really enjoyed this game. The story was interesting and the characters were engaging. I especially like Kuno. The battles were also fun, and there were many scenes that I liked in the adult scenes, such as using my skills well to defeat bosses and so on. I can't wait to venture out with the Globe again. But I look forward to the next update. I am rooting for you behind the scenes, so please do your best. Finally, I'm a Japan person and I'm not good at writing in English, so I use Google Translate, and sometimes my expressions are inappropriate. Forgive me if this might make you feel uncomfortable.
Hello developers, your game is great but I think there was a bug. I'm at a location with bandits right now, and it seems like you can sneak through and knock them out with one hit, but I always get into a full-fledged fight, no matter how I approach, a fight starts all the time. What am I doing wrong?
I tried as you said, but still, it turns out that I have a battle. It’s even a little funny to me from this, because I have already earned almost 17 levels on this problem, although when I first came to the location I was only 12
We've just done some checking and testing, and everything is working fine on our end. Are you SURE you're talking about the Bandits in their underground lair? And are you SURE that you're approaching them from behind? Either just running into them, or pressing Enter, when BEHIND them, should knock them out.
Finally, just to make sure, are you running the latest version of the game (v.308)?
I understood the whole problem. I myself play the Russian version, and there is a bug that just does not make it possible to knock out the bandit. I just went through the English version to the same location and this bug is not there. I am very sorry that I accused that the bug is in your version. Sorry again. And that even you had to check the game itself
Extremely difficult to get into the discord community, as it requires a phone number and email, but of course discord is buggy asf and literally separated email and phone number into 2 separate accounts. Really, we shouldn't all just unanimously rely on discord.
...that's why we have Twitter accounts you can follow, FurAffinity accounts you can +Watch, or just +Follow us here for updates. You've got more options than just Discord.
yo! Sup! Good evening, I was just wondering how I could turn the full-screen mode again, had an issue and now tis constantly windowed. Thanks in advance, whatever u do!
Excellent game, for years I have been looking for a game like this, the RPG, the story, every detail... especially the last bosses. I am very interested in knowing who the main antagonist is. I have a good idea for your next plot, can I post it here? or where can i send it?
Following the words of the purple eye: 3 generals/bosses with their own domains
Lord of the Sky (A were-pegasus or antropomorfic pegasus).
Lord of the Seas (A triton like creature the jellycaps are from his domain).
Lord of the Underworld (A Lord bat hunk with a cape, like dracula but with Bat form and is related to Skinny Bat)
Grove can choose to release them (Sky lord or Sea Lord, Underworld Lord is not controled by the purple eye) or join/surrender/lose to one of them.
If Grove joins/surrenders/loses, he will end up becoming a hybrid between dragon and winged/merman/bat and as a slave?, husband? XD, if Grove chooses to release, he can form a pact with one of them to obtain a clean versions of these forms consciously to explore other areas or maybe fight.
Tell me if you are interested to give you more details :D and keep the awesome work.
You need to go down the well, south of the Inn. Talk to the Innkeeper and the Blacksmith. You should be able to get a key to open the gate and go down the well.
You found him, that's the special merchant. And if you can synthesize stuff at the Inn, that means you got the synthesis cauldron too.
The 'skimpy covers' aren't called that on the synthesis list. You're looking to make the material it's made from, near the bottom of the list. Good luck.
Haha I thought I deleted my original post because I realized it was stupid. Didn't expect that you still got it. Thanks for your reply.
Yes I realized that I got it already. And because I'm using another language patch, I didn't know the thing I'm currently equipped is the "skimpy cover" itself.
This was hands down the best combat/adult RPG I have tried. Having a real storyline, awesome intrigue, a lot of good *scenes* for every taste as well, but beautifully written and lovely drawings as well! I was so sad when I hit the wall of the last update. EAGERLY awaiting the next installment as I have loved the story and I have loved getting to know the world and characters. <3
Ohh, thank you very much for the impassioned review! It's always a pleasure to hear such kind words, and we hope we'll continue to please when future updates eventually arrive!
This is my first RPG game that combines combat with adult content in the game I play, and even has different CGs determined by different states, which makes my eyes shine. As the task progresses, the construction of the campsite becomes more and more complete, and I really like this detail. At the same time, there are different mechanisms to fill the fun of the game, such as the 123 Wooden Man at the Mine Bat, and some interesting equipment acquisition mechanisms. If you miss them, you really miss them. The protagonist is really cute. I don't know what the subsequent plot between him and Red Dragon will be like, haha
The art style may be still in production, sometimes good or bad, but this does not affect
In terms of combat, I feel that there is a psychological gap in the numerical value of the attack. I feel that I need to attack for a long time to eliminate this monster. I hope there will be some adjustments in the later stage, otherwise it will only highlight the complexity, because I must rely on ordinary attacks, waiting, and being beaten to accumulate and release TP skills, Even when I am down and there is no TP left, I can only give players a certain choice by waiting and being beaten in the hope of increasing the reply method of TP, and at the same time, the additional reply method of TP requires some requirements
In terms of decryption exploration, there are some places where the prompts were not given properly. For example, the gathering place of bandits only reminded me to be vigilant (perhaps due to translation issues I am not sure) and did not tell me that I can solve the enemy by approaching him from behind. Also, after I eliminated the bandit leader, I am not sure how the hidden room was opened, or I only discovered it when I went in and searched casually later.
I hope there will be a place to review the combat tutorial in the future.
This is my first comment and there will definitely be some omissions, but I really like this game and I look forward to your future updates. And I saw your new work on Bilibili, and Chinese players are also looking forward to your new work. So am I. Please forgive my English, my English is not good because these are all machine translated meanings, which may not be what I want to express. If it makes you feel unhappy, please forgive me
Thank you for sharing your review! I understood most of things you said.
We will continue to test combat difficulty to try and make the game feel balanced. There are a lot of people with a lot of skill levels playing our game so finding a balance is not an easy task.
And we are glad to hear that Chinese players are enjoying our other game, Prowler!
3. Go to the 'General' tab, then at the bottom (above the lock), grant an exception for the 'GROVE' app and click 'Open Anyway'.
If that doesn't work... try this:
Download the normal version of NW.js (https://nwjs.io/) and transfer the app to Applications. Make sure to grant it permissions under the Privacy and Security setting after trying to open it. In terminal, launch the game with this command (substitute NAME for your Mac username): open -n -a nwjs --args "/Users/NAME/Desktop/Grove_0.308"
So we've been looking into it and I'm afraid I've got bad news. We think it’s a thing with the newest version of Mac… proprietary stuff. Unfortunately we don’t really possess the hardware to test it (latest Mac version) since the small Mac we have for testing only goes up to the version before the latest. It's probably a permissions issue with the M1 chip, which really sucks... and we highly doubt they'd allow a game like Grove to be provided with a dev license, hah...
Wow, played it all on the last three days, and I must say, 8 hours of pure lascive content. Latex and corruption fetish got so much love from this game, thank you devs so much ^w^
Already anxious for the next update!
And can I ask a thing devs 👉👈? Was I playing wrong or is the game hard by design? Other than obtaining the sex scenes, I lost so much, even grinding and having a full inventory of regenaration items of hp and tp. Also, grapple moves, even if sexy, seems so underpowered (even with the skanty clothes).
Anyway, loved it! You guys are making smth amazing!
Thanks a lot for the praise, it's much appreciated!
The game isn't intended to be very hard. It really depends on using your skills, weapon and armour set in the best way possible. If you're using grapple moves, strip off as soon as possible to get big grapple damage buffs, and save your best attack for the final grapple phase for bonus damage.
Hello, im kinda stuck on finding tasks and all and that Kuno that was kiddnaped by the blue slime i cant find him anywhere i searched everywhere and im still stuck, can anyone help me?
Hey! I was curious if it was possible to get all the armor pieces once you've beaten the game? I missed a couple (specifically the skimpy covers), so I was hoping I didn't need to play from the beginning again to watch the scenes.
Also wanted to say I absolutely LOVE the game! It's been a great experience and I can't wait for another update! Thank you for being active on your forms and making such a great game! :)
It is indeed possible to get all of the amour pieces once you've beaten the game. The skimpy covers can be crafted with the Synthesis Cauldron and certain enemy spoils.
Highlight below for spoilers: The Synthesis Cauldron can be acquired by finding the secret merchant. You can find him by travelling to the jungle, jumping down into the slug caverns, and making your way to the far side. The hardened black sludge can be found in the valley that connects the abandoned northern settlement to the desert.
This was an absolutely lovely game, i really want more so badly!! But don't worry, I can wait~ Also not sure how many pets or corrupted/cursed items there are. Only got the wisp and the thong, i searched every nook and cranny
Sounds like you've got a few things you can still find! Check the gallery in Grove's room at the inn, which will give you some hints towards some of the things you missed.
Additionally, you can also check out this guide. It's not for the full game, but it help with a few things: https://qazm.itch.io/a-grove-timeline (don't forget to give Qazm a nice comment if you use his guide!)
Oh i did look at the hints! Tho most of them dont make sense to me yet but I'll give the guide a look see! Also ngl, if you do comms, I'd 100% get some with the enemies of the game~
I'm afraid we don't offer commissions. But you're welcome to buy one from another artist, featuring enemies or characters from the game. Just please make sure you mention that to the artist, so proper credit can be given.
How can I complete the "new source" task with finding new materials in the mine? I don't understand where I'm supposed to in a way since right now I'm in front of the entrance to the mine in Cliffside Cave, but no secret way or passage outside of what was already searched. I go to where the slime dragons are and to the entry way but it says I have no reason to go there.
You're in the wrong spot I'm afraid. You need to go to the mines at the Primary Division settlement.
Head to the Northern Bridge Campsite via your Docs Case, and cross the bridge to the north. Just keep going straight north and you'll find the building entrance, with a certain fella waiting outside for you.
Just so you know, there's no need to rush to acquire all of Bizz's items. They're intended to be something to work towards over the course of the full game.
If you're determined to try and get them sooner rather than later though... fighting slugs and selling their drops is one of the better ways. (but it'll still take a long time).
Hello, author.I like this game very much.I'm also looking forward to the rest of the story of this game.So when will the following story be updated?Secondly, I also like the music of this game.Especially the music of the central camp, so does the author want to make the music public?I really like this game, and I hope the author will be better and better in the future.
One word: Sublime. I went through the entire story all in one sitting, a full 12 hours (im so tired...). Looking forward to seeing what comes next from this!
Whoa, thanks a lot for powering through our game! It's great to know you could get such a long and enjoyable experience out of it... and that you consider it worthy enough to even do such a thing in the first place!

COMMENTS FOR THE ALGHORHYTHM GODS
Not reviewing since this is not a finished product , so leaving a comment because it's an interesting game and I want to give some support to what is a good and promising game.

i love this game the story is amazing and the artwork is amazing >/////< characters are well written and some of them are adorble i cant wait to see how the story will proceed
Thank you very much for the kind words~!
I've not played that good game for a long time. Waiting for the new updates. Loves and kisses to creator <3
Thank you~
do you ever think this will get an android port? (Just wondering cause I really want to play this game but don't have a computer)
You can try it if you want, but you'll need JoiPlay, and "RPG Maker Plugin for JoiPlay" to make it work. It's... a bit of a compromised experience due to graphical issues and the like though, so it's not really recommended...

We'll do our best with future updates!
Hello developers, your game is great but I think there was a bug. I'm at a location with bandits right now, and it seems like you can sneak through and knock them out with one hit, but I always get into a full-fledged fight, no matter how I approach, a fight starts all the time. What am I doing wrong?
Are you walking into them? You wanna press Enter when behind them to knock them out.
I tried as you said, but still, it turns out that I have a battle. It’s even a little funny to me from this, because I have already earned almost 17 levels on this problem, although when I first came to the location I was only 12
We've just done some checking and testing, and everything is working fine on our end. Are you SURE you're talking about the Bandits in their underground lair?

Ahh, thank you for explaining the reason. Your apology is accepted.
We'll look into the issue in the Russian version and see if it's fixable.
I want to get the 100% of the game, but i dont know where to look, can someone help me with that??
https://qazm.itch.io/a-grove-timeline
This isn't complete yet, but it might help you discover some things you missed.
Great game with very very few bugs or glitches.
Extremely difficult to get into the discord community, as it requires a phone number and email, but of course discord is buggy asf and literally separated email and phone number into 2 separate accounts. Really, we shouldn't all just unanimously rely on discord.
...that's why we have Twitter accounts you can follow, FurAffinity accounts you can +Watch, or just +Follow us here for updates. You've got more options than just Discord.
Fair point. Just wish Discord wasn't so buggy.
yo! Sup! Good evening, I was just wondering how I could turn the full-screen mode again, had an issue and now tis constantly windowed. Thanks in advance, whatever u do!
F4 should make the game full-screen.
honestly, I shoud've expected to feel as dumb as I do rn HASHDASHD thanks tho ofc
honestly, I shoud've expected to feel as dumb as I do rn HASHDASHD thanks tho ofc
I now want to bake a dragon bun XD The game is pretty cool I like it!
Thanks for playing, and the praise!
You can share ideas and suggestions here if you wish, though we don't make any promises we'll accept a suggestion.
If Grove joins/surrenders/loses, he will end up becoming a hybrid between dragon and winged/merman/bat and as a slave?, husband? XD, if Grove chooses to release, he can form a pact with one of them to obtain a clean versions of these forms consciously to explore other areas or maybe fight. Tell me if you are interested to give you more details :D and keep the awesome work.
help, after I save some random dragon from a green slime. What do I do next?
You need to go down the well, south of the Inn. Talk to the Innkeeper and the Blacksmith. You should be able to get a key to open the gate and go down the well.
Where is the Blacksmith?
The purple dragon in the stone building near the Inn.
You found him, that's the special merchant. And if you can synthesize stuff at the Inn, that means you got the synthesis cauldron too.
The 'skimpy covers' aren't called that on the synthesis list. You're looking to make the material it's made from, near the bottom of the list. Good luck.
Haha I thought I deleted my original post because I realized it was stupid. Didn't expect that you still got it. Thanks for your reply.
Yes I realized that I got it already. And because I'm using another language patch, I didn't know the thing I'm currently equipped is the "skimpy cover" itself.
OK, glad to know you have solved your problem!
This was hands down the best combat/adult RPG I have tried. Having a real storyline, awesome intrigue, a lot of good *scenes* for every taste as well, but beautifully written and lovely drawings as well! I was so sad when I hit the wall of the last update.

hi im trying to play the game but everytime i open the game it just shuts it off again and it doesnt let me play im playing on a macbook pro 2023
Going to need some more information before we can necessarily help you.
Firstly, I assume you've downloaded and are trying to launch the MacOS version, yes?
Secondly, does any kind of error message appear? If so, please share it with us so we can help.
1. yes i launched macos
2. no error message appears it just shuts the game down nothing appears on my screen when it happens the game just disapears
Alright... OK, first things first, try this:
1. Open 'System Preferences'
2. Go to 'Security and Privacy'
3. Go to the 'General' tab, then at the bottom (above the lock), grant an exception for the 'GROVE' app and click 'Open Anyway'.
If that doesn't work... try this:
Download the normal version of NW.js (https://nwjs.io/) and transfer the app to Applications. Make sure to grant it permissions under the Privacy and Security setting after trying to open it.
In terminal, launch the game with this command (substitute NAME for your Mac username): open -n -a nwjs --args "/Users/NAME/Desktop/Grove_0.308"
the first method is how i always do it and the 2nd method has the same result it just crashes again without any error code or smt
So we've been looking into it and I'm afraid I've got bad news. We think it’s a thing with the newest version of Mac… proprietary stuff. Unfortunately we don’t really possess the hardware to test it (latest Mac version) since the small Mac we have for testing only goes up to the version before the latest. It's probably a permissions issue with the M1 chip, which really sucks... and we highly doubt they'd allow a game like Grove to be provided with a dev license, hah...
Sorry about that...
Hey I'm a bit stuck. where do I find hardened slug secretion??? And how do I get it???
You can acquire them as drops from defeating slugs, and you can also find them in a certain container down in the slug den area.
Best game ever! But is there any progress on the 0.308 Japanese version?
I would be so happy if there is or if development is in progress!
help, I stuck at the time after I save some random dragon from a green slime. What do I do next?
Wow, played it all on the last three days, and I must say, 8 hours of pure lascive content. Latex and corruption fetish got so much love from this game, thank you devs so much ^w^
Already anxious for the next update!
And can I ask a thing devs 👉👈? Was I playing wrong or is the game hard by design? Other than obtaining the sex scenes, I lost so much, even grinding and having a full inventory of regenaration items of hp and tp. Also, grapple moves, even if sexy, seems so underpowered (even with the skanty clothes).
Anyway, loved it! You guys are making smth amazing!

Hey, try using daggers and its bleed attacks, bleed scales with the amount of max health, so even bosses takes good damage from this.
Oh, thanks!
有一个应该是bug的玩意，按下TAB键后按空格键会导致画面上下抽动
Hello, im kinda stuck on finding tasks and all and that Kuno that was kiddnaped by the blue slime i cant find him anywhere i searched everywhere and im still stuck, can anyone help me?
Great game btw.
After kuno gets grabbed he is one screen right and up, you can follow a trail of his armor on the ground covered in slime
Thanks so much!
Hey! I was curious if it was possible to get all the armor pieces once you've beaten the game? I missed a couple (specifically the skimpy covers), so I was hoping I didn't need to play from the beginning again to watch the scenes.
Also wanted to say I absolutely LOVE the game! It's been a great experience and I can't wait for another update! Thank you for being active on your forms and making such a great game! :)
It is indeed possible to get all of the amour pieces once you've beaten the game. The skimpy covers can be crafted with the Synthesis Cauldron and certain enemy spoils.

thank you! I wasn't aware of that!
This was an absolutely lovely game, i really want more so badly!! But don't worry, I can wait~ Also not sure how many pets or corrupted/cursed items there are. Only got the wisp and the thong, i searched every nook and cranny
Sounds like you've got a few things you can still find! Check the gallery in Grove's room at the inn, which will give you some hints towards some of the things you missed.
Additionally, you can also check out this guide. It's not for the full game, but it help with a few things: https://qazm.itch.io/a-grove-timeline
(don't forget to give Qazm a nice comment if you use his guide!)
Oh i did look at the hints! Tho most of them dont make sense to me yet but I'll give the guide a look see! Also ngl, if you do comms, I'd 100% get some with the enemies of the game~
I'm afraid we don't offer commissions. But you're welcome to buy one from another artist, featuring enemies or characters from the game. Just please make sure you mention that to the artist, so proper credit can be given.
Will the latest Japanese version be released?
We've had difficulties finding reliable volunteers to translate the game into Japanese. Right now, I can't make any promises about that. Sorry.
Understood.
Then can I volunteer to translate Japanese?
I don't know if I can reliably...
Thanks for the offer. We are contact with some people already. If it does not work with them, maybe you can try.
Got it! I hope that your wonderful work will spread further.
Six months have passed, maybe it's time to make a fan-made on v0.3?
How can I complete the "new source" task with finding new materials in the mine? I don't understand where I'm supposed to in a way since right now I'm in front of the entrance to the mine in Cliffside Cave, but no secret way or passage outside of what was already searched. I go to where the slime dragons are and to the entry way but it says I have no reason to go there.
You're in the wrong spot I'm afraid. You need to go to the mines at the Primary Division settlement.
Head to the Northern Bridge Campsite via your Docs Case, and cross the bridge to the north. Just keep going straight north and you'll find the building entrance, with a certain fella waiting outside for you.
Thank you for the help! Think I just got confused between the places.
sooooo is there anyway not to let the bat escape the cave >.> I'm way too jealous of that bat
Aren’t we all jealous of that damn bat? Damn you blacksmith for not taking us instead!
Straight up I refuse to play until I find a way around it. I don't know why it has me this level of angry
Because we where all simping the blacksmith? I feel robbed TmT
So new update coming soon? its been month since i done the quest :(
We have no timeframe on when the next update will arrive. Thank you for your interest, and please be patient in the meantime.
How do you farm money in this game? Does anyone have a guide?
Just so you know, there's no need to rush to acquire all of Bizz's items. They're intended to be something to work towards over the course of the full game.
If you're determined to try and get them sooner rather than later though... fighting slugs and selling their drops is one of the better ways. (but it'll still take a long time).
Hello, author.I like this game very much.I'm also looking forward to the rest of the story of this game.So when will the following story be updated?Secondly, I also like the music of this game.Especially the music of the central camp, so does the author want to make the music public?I really like this game, and I hope the author will be better and better in the future.
We hope to update the game again before the end of the year. Thank you for your interest, and please wait patiently!
The music of the game has been licensed for use, so we cannot share it for free. Sorry about that! We appreciate the kind words about the music!
One word: Sublime. I went through the entire story all in one sitting, a full 12 hours (im so tired...). Looking forward to seeing what comes next from this!
Whoa, thanks a lot for powering through our game! It's great to know you could get such a long and enjoyable experience out of it... and that you consider it worthy enough to even do such a thing in the first place!
Get some rest, and thanks so much!
why so dark ?? how can see it ?? so dark
This is why it says "THIS GAME IS NOT SUPPORTED FOR MOBILE EMULATION! THERE ARE MULTIPLE VISUAL ERRORS!"
😭😭😭😭
When Playing GROVE using JoiPlay...
Try holding down the GROVE game icon, Select "Edit Plugins", then disable YEP_GridFreeDoodads & YEP_X_ExtDoodadPack1
Does it have another playable character feature?
No, just one character is playable.
Grove's love for carrots brightens my day. Keep up the great work devs!!! You're killing it with this game!!!
Thank you very much!
im on a cromebook which one do i download
You'll want to use the Linux version. Here's some instructions if you're new to launching games with Linux.
- Extract the downloaded archive into it’s own folder one it has completed, then open that folder
- There should be a tab at the top of the folder viewer that says GROVE V0.308 Linux. Click on the dropdown arrow for its tab.
- Click on "open in terminal".
Once the terminal opens, type
./GROVE.sh
Then Click Enter
- The terminal will do its thing, wait a few moments, and then the game should launch!
How do I extract it?
...can't you just right-click on the folder that you downloaded and click an option that says "extract all" or something to that effect?
