Plant Based Gaming is a gaming organization with a focus on preserving the planet. It is known for showcasing video games that have an emphasis on nature, conservation, and education. This isn’t the first time the organization has looked to use gaming to profit nature. Just this August, it ran its “Sweet Farm Charity” bundle on itch.io to support efforts focused on saving animals, educating people on agriculture, and promoting sustainable technologies.
