The voice of the witch is hilarious. I got stuck finding the second bubblewort.

Just started it and it's got such good energy! I'm having trouble finding carrots though; the nose indicator is showing up in a couple places, but it seems like I can't find a root no matter how many holes I dig! Could you point me in the right direction a bit?

Congrats regardless on the release, team!

Thanks for playing the game! We just added an update to clarify how to use the nose indicator to find roots -- hope this helps!

How do you even find a carrot? I found an area in which the nose icon was showing up, but the area is huge, and the map isn't even grid based.

I filled the whole area with holes, and still no carrot. If the carrot is supposed to be at the centre of the area, then it lies behind a wall of trees I can't get through. What do I have to do?

Check out the updated version of the game -- we've made it clearer now how the sniff system works. Hopefully this helps!
