Viridi was released onto Steam for Microsoft Windows and OS X on August 20, 2015, and was released onto iOS and Android on June 20, 2016. 'People would play just to unlock the next plant,' explained technical lead Kevin Maxon, 'which was antithetical to the spirit of the game: we want people to love the plant they have.' However, fearing that this made the game 'just another chore' instead of a relaxing experience, the developers changed to the free-to-play model as an alternative means of distributing plants over time. Ice Water Games initially conceived Viridi as an up-front purchase, giving players access to new plants as they met goals in-game. Along with the pot full of succulents awarded at the start of the game, each week, a free seedling is given to the player.

All of the succulents cost $0.99, but depending on the type, the quantity changes with the most being ten and the least being two. The shop contains different species of succulents and additional pots and backdrops that the player can purchase. Microtransactions are included in the game.

Weeds start to grow in the pot and the player is able to remove them by clicking on them. The snail can also be sang to and watered, changing its emotion from 'wow cute' to something else, including 'pleased', and 'wet', respectively. The player is able to sing to the succulents, resulting in faster growth.

If watered too much, they become 'overwatered' and if the watering continues, they will become 'waterlogged' and will die. The succulents eventually become 'thirsty', requiring the player to water them to become ' sated'. Moving the camera enables the player to view their other succulents. The camera angle is changed by dragging the mouse on PC or swiping on mobile. In Viridi, the player is tasked with looking after a pot full of different varieties of succulents in real-time, while a snail circumnavigates the edge of the pot. The game takes on a freemium model, meaning the game is free-to-play, but contains microtransactions. The game tasks players to look after a pot of succulents. The game was released onto Microsoft Windows and OS X on August 20, 2015, and onto iOS and Android on June 20, 2016. Viridi is a simulation video game developed by Ice Water Games. IOS, Android, Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows
