Plantera 2 is an indie idler clicker game that focuses on building resources to grow your island/parcel. The game has an overall relaxing vibe and features colorful sprite work and a soothing soundtrack.

As you gain coins, you are able to buy new types of plants, trees, animals/helpers, etc. Earning money increases your level which in turn unlocks more resources and items so the game does a good job of having this constant loop of seeking rewards and improving your setup. Being an idler game means that you can return to the game later and reap the benefit of having helpers do the work for you and therefore gain coins and levels while you're away. The idling gains in terms of coins and level and very lenient providing an overall easy progression that goes well with the relaxing nature of the game. With that being said, the fastest way to make money and level up is to be active within the game as you can click on the screen to collect your crops as soon as they are ready and aid your helpers in the process.

Overall this is an easy and and enjoyable game. For the price of admission, it's worth checking it out if you are into idlers and clicker games. The first game in the series is supposed to be more of the same but with fewer features (haven't played it yet and probably won't since this game offers more).
