Cloud Gardens Is Heading To Nintendo Switch On May 12, 2022

Switch owners will soon get to flex their artistic green thumbs in this upcoming sandbox-growing adventure!

Publisher Coatsink and developer noio have announced that Cloud Gardens will be heading to Nintendo Switch on 12 May 2022, for $17.99 / £13.99 / €14.99 / 1,840 yen. The game will see players balancing between the natural and the manufactured, as they grow their very own beautiful and dystopian dioramas.

Check out the official trailer below:

Plant

Harness the power of nature to overgrow lo-fi scenes of urban decay and manufactured landscapes. Create small plant-covered dioramas of brutalism and beauty by planting seeds, repurposing hundreds of discarded objects and creating unique structures for nature to reclaim.

Grow

Dive into a relaxing sandbox mode with no goals, or take on a multi-chapter “campaign” where the task is to strike a balance between the natural and the manufactured. Adding objects will encourage lush vegetation to grow, but each object must be covered in foliage in order to proceed.

Cloud Gardens hovers somewhere in between a sandbox toy and a game with challenges. Partly a gardening simulator, partly a dystopian landscape builder, and partly a puzzle game that is both satisfying and without frustration. It is a relaxing experience that takes you from one scene to the next while encouraging creativity and coming up with your own solutions.

Share

This is a chill game where the primary goal is to delight in your own creativity. Players can download looping videos of their completed dioramas and share them with other gardeners from across the internet, and our Discord server has a lively community of gardeners.
