## About Harvester

Harvester is a 2014 point-and-click adventure developed by DigiFX Interactive and published by Nightdive Studios. Featuring FMV elements, the game tasks players with navigating its bleak narrative through inventory combination, lateral puzzle solving, pixel hunting, and trigger-based exploration, with some sequences involving 2D action combat. Reviewers and players describe it as dark, funny, and unsettling, noting that its 90s counterculture satire feels authentic and unfiltered, with gore and shock value serving as social commentary. The intentionally absurd and provocative writing has contributed to its cult classic status within the horror adventure genre. Available for $5.99, Harvester is playable on Steam Deck, runs approximately medium length, and holds a 91% positive rating from over 1,000 Steam reviews.
