Cloud Gardens is a dystopian sandbox puzzle-slash-sim from Noio where you make the most of the apocalypse by making plants grow. It’s an ultra-Zen title that forces you to slow down, think about life, and do a little gardening - which is a totally welcome experience for when you need a breath of fresh air in today’s suffocating world.
WTMG's Heidi Hawes: "Cloud Gardens is a casual, laid-back, puzzle-solving experience. That being said, it’s not the type of game that you will want to play for hours on end, but it’s entertaining in short spurts. It offers over one hundred levels, which sounds impressive, but bear in mind that many of the assets are constantly reused, making levels feel tedious after a while. This makes it ideal for a system like the Switch, where you can pick it up and play here and there on-the-go. Once you understand how everything in the game works, Cloud Gardens can offer a chill experience to relax and unwind with for brief sessions."
In Cloud Gardens, you harness the healing power of nature to overgrow urban decay within wasteland dioramas. Plant seeds, repurpose hundreds of discarded objects and create unique structures for nature to reclaim.
"The UK-based indie games publisher Coatsink and the Netherlands-based indie games developer Noio, today announced with great delight and thrill that their puzzle/garden sim “Cloud Gardens” is coming to the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo Eshop on June 16th, 2022." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
