Track your reading progress while Grimalkin, a pixel cat companion, grows a garden that blooms with each completed book. The game runs passively in the background or as a standalone experience, rewarding your literary habits with gentle visual progression. Ideal for readers seeking low-pressure accountability paired with a charming, slightly critical feline presence.

Latest updates

100 wild new plants, cleaner creature animations, and happier gardens

16 days ago
The Grove has grown a little stranger—in the best possible way. This Readerpet update is now live on Steam! WHAT'S NEW • 100 new wild botanical themes, with their own seeds and four growth stages in both Stroll and Garden views. Expect wonderfully odd discoveries like Accordion Dragon Fern, Moon Moth Chandelier, and Origami Kraken Lotus. • Cleaner artwork and more smoothly aligned walk cycles for Grimalkin, Toast, Bramble, Ash, Margot, and Seedling, with less green fringing around their edges. • A tidier garden-clearing animation, including Toast hauling twigs and Bramble supervising when they're unlocked. GARDEN CARE • Better handling of crowded gardens, including paging so plants in older, overfilled gardens remain reachable. • Full gardens keep your waiting seeds safe and guide you toward clearing another patch. You can also use plant moving to rearrange your books between gardens. • Animation timing and cleanup improvements, plus a fix for the planting effect's asset path. Your existing garden stays yours—there's no need to start over. Let Steam finish the update, then reopen Readerpet and keep growing your reading life. Thank you for reading, tending, and telling me when something looks a little wonky. If anything still seems off, please let me know in the Steam discussions. —Cassie
