Grow a garden has changed its Ascension system.
Its now progressive.
It now costs only 1T sheckles for your first ascension, then 3T for your second etc.
They've also made it easier to get the fruit requirements. The last two I've just needed an ember lily with regular mutations.
This doesn't fix the sheckles problem. There are plenty of things they could do to fix that, but it does make ascension easier for us.
Which is nice. The cooldown is also only 4 hrs.
Do you like this change or nah?
One aspect that really stands out with the new ascension system is how much more accessible it makes progressing through the game without the heavy cost burden. Before, the sheckles requirement to ascend was pretty steep, which could be discouraging for many players trying to reach higher levels. Now, starting with just 1T sheckles for the first ascension and increasing progressively, it feels more balanced. Also, the update’s impact on fruit requirements caught my attention. The ember lily, a key fruit in ascending, used to be a tougher challenge to acquire due to complicated mutation needs. But now, obtaining it with regular mutations simplifies the process tremendously. This lowers the grind and lets you enjoy the game more. I’ve also found the shorter 4-hour cooldown between ascensions a welcome change. It allows for faster progression cycles and keeps the gameplay engaging. For anyone focusing on growing an efficient garden, these tweaks mean less time worrying about resource limitations and more focus on strategy and fun. From my experience, these updates are definitely a step in the right direction, making the system more player-friendly while still offering strategic challenges.
