Goobie Garden: New Game From Athenian Rhapsody Devs

---

Goobie Garden started as a lighthearted livestream experiment by Nico, the creator behind Athenian Rhapsody. But like everything in that quirky universe, things quickly got out of hand. What began as a small idea has bloomed into a full-on live service experience packed with evolving creatures, competitive battles and seasonal surprises.

Hatch, Befriend and Battle with Goobies

In Goobie Garden, you’ll raise strange and silly creatures called Goobies. Each one comes with their own name, typing, personality and job. Want to evolve them? Just feed them, punch them (with love) and answer bizarre questions that shape how they grow.

Your journey is guided by Thunder Goober, the Athenian Rhapsody mascot, who sets you three main goals:

• Fill out your massive Goobiedex with tons of unlockable Goobies
• Evolve Goobies by building friendships and making choices
• Compete in chaotic auto-battle PvP matches for monthly rewards

Each Goobie has unique battle powers, so team-building takes brains and creativity. PvP matches are wild and unpredictable—but mastering them brings real rewards.

Seasonal Realms and Crossover Collectibles

Goobie Garden is free-to-play and changes every month. Your realm evolves with the real world seasons, so expect new Goobies, realm decorations and customizations all year long. You can even deck out your Goobies with hats and special effects.

The game also connects to Athenian Rhapsody and its upcoming sequel Tales of Tuscany. If you’ve collected Rhapsodies, unique in-game postcards generated by your playthrough choices, you’ll be able to trade them in Goobie Garden for exclusive Goobies, decorations and more. It’s all part of the plan to tie the Athenian Rhapsody universe together and add lasting value to those collectibles.
