Critter Cove challenges you to thrive in your very own future paradise. Inspired by games such as Animal Crossing™ with sprinkles of Stardew Valley™ and Windwaker®, get ready for a casual gameplay experience with complete player freedom and choice. Set in a tropical paradise of golden beaches and azure waters, but under the water and on more distant islands, the mysterious archipelago holds greater secrets for you to uncover, from sunken cities and dark caves to the remnants of an ancient civilization.


Any artifacts and treasures found on your adventure can be brought back to expand the town's resources, create new stores, and even encourage tourists to leave the beach long enough to make cultural visits to the town museum. Along the way you will encounter some of the island's friendly, and not so friendly, inhabitants, and experience some of the town charm and charisma.

 
Critter Cove offers players of all ages and experience levels the chance to grow and rebuild an island community full of colorful and quirky characters. It offers an expansion to the classic “cozy” formula by combining more typical cozy elements like crafting, farming and relationship building with a fully realized open-world, an in-depth crafting system and town-building, and tourism management elements.
