The combination of Stardew Valley and Pokémon sounds like heaven for any cozy gamer, and Moonstone Island has brought the two games together in the cutest way.

You can farm, brew potions, make friends, go on dates, build a new home, decorate, explore dungeons, and collect Spirits to battle bosses. It blends several game genres with farming, life simulation, creature-collecting, and deckbuilding.

No, Moonstone Island is currently unavailable on Nintendo Switch at the time of writing. The developers have stated the game will come to Nintendo’s console, however. Switch fans got an official release date during the Wholesome Games showcase on June 8 at Summer Game Fest.

The game is Steam Deck verified, so the devs have considered the hand-held preference of the cozy gamer. Nintendo Switch’s developing platform is different from Steam’s, however, which means it’s not so simple to port the game to another console.
