Acharius
A downloadable game for Windows
Acharius is a tiny hidden object game for those who are likin' the lichens! An educational minigame designed for a nonexistent school of lichenology (if only). Made with a love for all things fungi for Mushroom jam.
Use the up/down/left/right directional buttons to navigate the cemetery and uncover specimens for your collection. Consult your console to reveal details on your lichen finds.
Bonus: A complete "Acharius Original Soundtrack" is available for download. This zip file contains the in-game track "Rosmarinus" as well as an additional full-length album of unused music "Acharius." That's ~50 min. of delicate lichen symbiosis for the ears.
Special Thanks:
Gabriele Maddaloni for providing the Micro Game Engine (https://thaon.itch.io/mgm), the one tool to adequately capture this tiny vision.
Erik Acharius, father of the field of lichenology
P.S.: Can you find the hidden Easter egg?
