The story of "The Juicer" revolves around a farmer whose quest for faster-growing crops leads to disastrous consequences, as his enhanced fruits and vegetables turn into vengeful, sentient beings.

He uses the potion on the fruits, and while it works, they become killing fruits. While the story is meh, it's still pretty good based on the concept of the game.”
