Undercover Houseplant

Welcome, Agent, to the most challenging operation of your career. You've been chosen for this mission due to your exceptional ability to adapt and overcome. In an unconventional twist of fate, you find yourself deployed in the field not as the usual two-legged agent, but rather a zero-legged operative: a houseplant.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to infiltrate the enemy's premises, blend in with the local flora, and gather valuable intel from the unsuspecting individuals who dare to conduct secretive conversations in your vicinity.

Each day, you will immerse yourself in an intricate dance of espionage that consists of two phases: Observation and Action. Listen attentively to the whispers and murmurings around you, and strive to separate the wheat from the chaff. It will be your task to discern valuable secrets from the meaningless prattle of daily life.

Furthermore, you'll have to rely on your botanical prowess to subtly alter your growth patterns and communicate the information to the Agency. But remember, every leaf that trembles, every branch that reaches out, could risk exposing your true identity. As a piece of spycraft, it's your job to walk - or grow - that fine line between obfuscation and communication.

Choose your plant form wisely, Agent. Each species carries its own strengths and weaknesses, from the resilient Golden Pothos to the eye-catching Peace Lily. You'll need to utilize these traits to your advantage and strategize your growth to remain inconspicuous.

Do keep in mind, even the greenest thumb can't prevent the occasional slip-up. We've established a Suspicion Score system to monitor your conspicuousness. Accumulate too many points, and you risk having your cover blown. Operate wisely to reduce your Suspicion Score and remain undercover.

Good luck, Agent. The fate of your mission rests on your chlorophyll-filled leaves. Remember, in this high-stakes game of secrets and subterfuge, it's not just about growing - it's about knowing. Your Agency is counting on you.
