Gardens! Home of cat poo and snails. But oh to be in nature and among the gentle rhythm of it all - the buzzing of insects and chirping of birds, all while the sun lazes across the sky, warming you as you drift off thinking about nothing very much at all. Bliss. That's the fantasy, anyway. And it's a fantasy we've seen pulled on in games time and time again. One of our contributors, Rob Dwiar, who's a landscape gardener, has actually explored this quite a lot. Gardens are uplifting places to be. But the question is, which games have the best gardens of all?
