''Botanicula'' is a PointAndClickGame by the developers of ''VideoGame/{{Machinarium}}'', Creator/AmanitaDesign. It is the first of their games not designed by founder Jakub Dvorský but by the animator newcomer Jaromír Plachý, something that is evidenced by the amount of animation in its every frame. The story follows a FiveManBand of forest creatures who embark on a quest. Along the way, they have to evade multiple adversaries, notably a GiantSpider that sucks the life out of anything it touches.

* GiantSpider: A prominent one that adds a certain amount of terror to the game. Interestingly, based on the more realistic-looking spiders that can be seen in-game as well, the black "spider" isn't really a spider, but more of a... multi-limbed, sinister shadow-thing.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Mr. Lantern's special ability--being able to glow because he's bearing the Seeds of Light--doesn't help the party overcome the puzzles as well as the skills of the other party members. However, the Light of the Seeds turns out to be anathema to the Spider and the shadow beings that live inside/comprise him, [[spoiler:which prevents Mr. Lantern from being drained like his four friends at the beginning of the last level, and ultimately leads to the Spider's defeat]].

The game is done in a similar whimsical style to ''Machinarium'', although it can turn surprisingly dark at times. It won the Excellence in Audio award at IGF 2012 for its energetic soundtrack by the Czech band DVA. Additionally, a new [[UsefulNotes/HumbleBundle Humble Indie Bundle]] was created for its debut, which gave part of its proceeds to the World Land Trust.
