PayPalBoth originally from Ubisoft before being acquired by Atari back in 2025, Grow Home and Grow Up are now on GOG in the GOG Preservation Program. Another nice win for fans of DRM-free games and keeping gaming history alive.
You can also buy them on GOG in a bundle together.
In Grow Home you play as BUD (Botanical Utility Droid), a robot on a mission to save his home planet by harvesting the seeds of a giant alien plant. On his quest BUD will discover a beautiful world of floating islands that are home to some rather strange plants and animals.

While out exploring the galaxy with MOM, BUD’s parental spaceship, she goes to pieces. Like, literally – MOM’s all over the place. The positioning of that moon was terribly inconsiderate. Now her ship parts are scattered far and wide across an entire alien planet so rich in flora and fauna it would make even the most jaded galactic gardener’s head spin. It’s up to BUD to collect all her parts and get them back to the moon.

What are you hoping to see added to GOG next?
In other related GOG news, their team have taken notice of those games that have been left to rot with no updates. In a post on the GOG Forum, a member of their team mentioned they'll be giving an update on their progress every two weeks on getting updates and offline installers sorted across various games. Nice to see since the ownership change that GOG seem to doing some good stuff.

Quoting: elmapulwait this game was not from ubisoft?They were the publisher; Steam is currently listing the developer (Reflections) as a Ubisoft studio. Unclear if they are still involved at all, or if all rights and source code are now with the new publisher (Atari). I'd guess the latter.
now on GOG in the GOG Preservation ProgramNice to see they haven't ditched the Linux build on the first game (yet?). But I doubt it's covered by their preservation program. That Linux build is a pretty good sign that Ubisoft was mainly just the publisher, as they don't do Linux (although they did for Stadia; too bad that didn't transfer to the wider ecosystem).
