Life is so stressful that sims like this are becoming a nice way to relax, so I can see why they’re getting more popular. I can see myself really enjoying this
Win a copy - leave your thoughts below! This one released to massive praise over on Steam and currently holds a high 9/10 rating across that platform. A thanks to the developer for sponsoring our look at it - it is the season of Cozy Simlife games! Thank you to the publisher of Everdream Valley for sponsoring this video.

I like the look of this but am unsure about the minigames, sure that they will be fun at first, but may disrupt the flowmof play when doing daily tasks? Also, does it handle well on switch, or feel like its made for PC (seen in games like bear and breakfast or hokko life)?
Love the colours and the music. So peaceful! I’m excited to get this one. Games like this help me to escape reality. Just finished My Time At Portia so I’m ready for the next one.
I like the design but I’m gonna have to see more footage to see if i’d buy a copy or not. Currently only used to farm sim and this looks more complicated with the controls 🤔. Also.. can you tweak the animal sounds or are ya just going deaf every time you go near them? Caus that bit sounded horrendous 😅
I think that this is a great entry level game for kids and adults actually.. But at the same time I think the cozy aspect makes it a good pickup and play for anyone
This just looks fun to play. Not overly complicated, big map. The selection of doggos is really cool. There have been so many games like this lately and they all have their own unique aspects 😊 I wanna try them all. Happy birthday btw 🎉
First; Happy Birthday Mark!🎉 Now then, I'm glad the devs managed to bring this game to the switch since I just knew of it as a Steam game. I will add it to the wish list for sure! I do hope the devs manage to squeeze an option for bigger font but, I do find all the animals shown in the video super cute! More so that spotted Llama it was just adorable.
I’ve been following this game for a while now and I think it’s really gorgeous. It looks perfect for something to sink into in between “heavier” games or just something to destress to. I quite like how there’s more of an emphasis to animals this time too. Also, the milking reaction is hilarious 😂 that’s more than enough to make it worth it.
I really like the look of that quest tracker. I have trouble in open-ended farming games sometimes with the sheer bulk of things to do, so having some direction feels nice.
Graveyard Keeper was a great game loved all the dlc and lack of hand holding. Sense of humour was the clincher for me. My favourite game in this genre though definitely goes to Littlewood ( although I changed its name to Wolf Wood and I was the Overlord) the fact that it never really goes on sale speaks for itself imo. The amount of love the characters have for you and the seasonal changes absolutely nailed it for me.
I remember playing hours of the original Harvest Moon when it came out. Back then I could only imagine the worlds we get to live out in these modern cozy games we have now.
I'm loving this game. I like survival horror games for the most part. But games like these really help me relax and calm my nerves to give horror games another go.
As someone who lost her dad three years ago next week, I'm just glad the grandparents are alive on this one! Absolutely love the look of this game and the inclusion of mini games, even the slightly disturbing ones! This one is going into my wishlist for sure. Also, I lost track of days, but Happy Birthday! Or should I say happy belated birthday or happy early birthday? Either way, you get my point🎉🎉 As for my favorite farming game... That's easily Littlewood, even if it's more town builder than farming game but you can farm so it has to count! Thanks for another great vid!
I just learned about this game earlier this morning and it looks so fun. I'm a huge fan of farming games and this one looks extremely chill. I agree with your daughter the dogs do look so damn cute 😆
this really looks super comfy 🥰 i just thought about how intimidating many games can be nowadays. so much to learn and read through. makes these relaxing games all the more precious.
When i see a new video comes out by switch up It gives me the same feeling I use to get as a kid when I was allowed to stay up an extra hour bc my favorite show was on. Such a good feeling. Thanks guys
I must say I love that cozy games are coming in more often and I don’t know what it is, I just don’t get tired of them. Thank you for the video!!! I’d love to play this one.
Hope you had a great birthday! Thanks for reviewing this one - I'm glad to hear it got a day one patch for the Switch, I had heard that it didn't run all that well before. Hearing it's already got some love from the developers makes me way more likely to try it. I love the animals, especially the chickens and alpacas. Your daughter is completely right - the dogs are SO CUTE!
This looks adorable. I've been playing Hokko Life recently and it's not scratching the life sim itch I thought it would. This looks a bit meatier. Harvestella is a super underrated farming game if you haven't played it. Farming + a really fun action RPG. What's not to love?
I always love these type of games.. Relaxing and cozy... My favorite part is when i need to complete everything and crafting.. It gives you that sense of accomplishment..
This looks amazing as I have put in many hours in Stardew Valley. This looks like a great cozy game to wind down with after work. Sounds like there is so much to do. And the ability to choose a ‘cute’ dog is a plus😂😂😂! Happy birthday!🎉🎉🎉
This game looks so relaxing, nothing more I enjoy after a days work then coming home and playing games like these! I'm definitely looking to purchase this one! Great Review guys!
I tried the PC demo of this game and had no idea it was coming out on Switch! It looks like there has been a heap of changes to it since I tried it, too, which is super exciting! Also, happy birthday! 🎂
Love your videos and these cozy games. I’m not sure what unique element excites me more, the mini games or the fact the grandparents are around to help out. There’s always a hint of sadness in these games when you think about how you are always taking over for your grandpa who passed away, but not in this game. Stardew Valley will always hold a special spot because it was my first farm/cozy game, but I’m definitely excited for Story Of Seasons Wonderful Life next week and the franchise as a whole.
Would never say no to another cozy game! I really love the game's atmosphere, so cute and colorful! Looks like a good game to just shut my brain off and lose myself in the environment and cute animals 🥰
This looks like a lot of fun! I like the more relaxing titles like this where time is not constantly pushing you. I don't really find that fun. I also love how many animals there are, even if it will be a bit noisy once you get them all.
Oooh this game looks fun! I love how chonky the animals are! The mini games are nice addition too! Tbh i'm happy to be able to witness tons of farming games being released here and there because back then we only have harvest moon 😆
Oh man, these cozy games are such a guilty pleasure for me. I recently started a new Stardew farm to tide me over until Fae Farm, but I'm sorely tempted to grab this. And happy birthday Mark! Never grow up!
These type of games are the exact games I love to play... i had no idea there was even a "cozy game" genre until these past few yrs and hadn't realized there was a name to call them. A way to play and relax and use these types of games to escape reality~. Its so much fun and this games looks like my cup of tea! Love it!!❤
Happy Birthday Mark!! 🎂Hiep Hiep, Hoera! (a little dutch version of a cheer for you 😉) I love the little plump animals but some of the mini games look cursed! 🤣It looks like it has all the elements of a perfect cosy game! Thanks for the review!
Oh em geeeeee!! This game is too stinking cuuuuuttee!! Another Wonderful video guys! Dude the animals and animations are AMAZING 🤩 I would love a copy of this game!
Omg this game does look adorable and I have heard great things about it. The mini games looks like a lot fun. Definitely going to be on my wishlist after watching this.
I love these sort of games. Easy to pick up and play, which is great when you have young kids and sometimes don't want to get involved in a complex game. Thanks for the review. Always my go to for switch games.
Now that my kids are getting to an age they enjoy gaming, I am grateful for all those cozy games we see flourish. Totally up their alley anf they have so much fun! Most gems are found on Switch up ❤
Thank you for the video. It’s really cool to see a different take on the mini-games compared to some other similar games out there. Adds to the charm and little things like that can make it stand out from the crowd. We also have Fae Farm on the way and I want all of these cozy games. Definitely added this to my want list!!! Thank you!
This was a great insightful video, thanks! My favorite farm sim has been Stardew Valley but I really like the visuals in this game and the open world experience!
Last Saturday I had to give my dog back to the shelter, so the fact that you can have a dog in this game sounds like just the sort of thing I need right now. Thanks for the video, guys. I hadn't even heard of this one before now.
I really had not even considered this but your showcase has made it look like a lot of fun. Do I really need another farming sim? Doesn’t everybody?!?!? And Happy Birthday, Mark!
Stardew Valley, Graveyard Keeper, My Time in Portia, Cattails, all these games gave me my most enjoyable and relaxing time in my Switch and I knew about them because of your channel. I really love your reviews since I bought my Switch 4 years ago. Until today you are still my go to channel for Switch reviews.
Happy birthday Mark! With almost 600 hours in Stardev Valley I've been looking for another "cozy" game to play, this is looking really nice and might scratch the itch while waiting for Haunted Chocolatier. Loved the Pokemon burn ;)
This looks very nice! I just achieved 100% perfection on Stardew Valley and was looking for a new chill game to sink some time into. I might have to pick this one up.
I am a sucker for cozy games… always buy em but don’t always play them right away but man, there is something about a chill game like this to make you feel calm and cozy. Would love to check this one out!
Cozy games are perfect for the backlog - because this way, when you really need them, you don't have to adventure through the eshop, but can cozy up right away 😌 At least that's what I tell myself 😅
My 12-year-old daughter may really like this. I think I may like it.😆 The older I get, the more I am finding myself playing relaxing and chill games. This looks pretty fun. Happy Birthday Mark and thanks for the review
I wouldn't mind something to chill out with and just escape the madness of this busy world were stuck in. This looks actually quite cute and whimsical ❤ I would have never heard of this game without yalls channel. By far my favorite switch channel. Keep up the great work guys!
Animal Crossing Wild World will always have a special place in my heart. I’ll never forget getting the golden net as a teenager. My wife would love this game. Definitely adding it to the wishlist.
This looks like a very casual game. I have been looking more into farming and life sim games lately. Just not sure which to jump on. Thank you for the video!
Ohhh this looks super cute ❤ I have been playing disney dreamlight again, it is nice to relax and chill, this looks like a definite one to add to the list, and how cute is that doggo 😊 all of the animals are adorable actually! Happy birthday hope it was a good one!
I’ve been playing Rune Factory 5 , watched your review on it and purchased it. I’ve been having a blast in it, this looks like one I could play with my kids those mini games would get some laughs that’s for sure. Another Great vid keep up the awesome work.
I love that there’s more animals! I’m newer to gaming and have never played a full on farming sim. Currently playing and loving Disney dreamlight valley.
😂 Hah! I just actually had this recommended to me from a mutual on discord and they seemed to really enjoy it! And my gosh that unedited milking scene just crapped me right up (so thanks Mark for leaving that in! ❤) Oh! And . . . “IT’S SO CUTE”
Always felt a bit unsure of fully 3D farming sims and how awkward controls wise they’d be. Stardew is always so smooth and seamless I couldn’t see anything other than 2D working. This is the first one that might change my mind. Combining Stardew Valley with more animals and elements of Alba (another great cosy game) looks like a fab idea!
I’ve been obsessed with games like this, since harvest moon times. I don’t know if it’s crazy but playing games like this really takes away my stress and anxiety. From getting lost in the day to day farming to the storyline. And this game looks amazing .🤞 here is to hoping
The developers have worked thier butts off buttoning things up. They've really improved the game fast and basically I bought the game due to that. I mean it's really a good game also lol, but the passion and dedication of the devs is what gave me the confidence to purchase.
My go to farm sim is stardew, i just like to sit nack and relax and enjoy the environment. I have found so many great games thanks to you guys. I look forward to your videos, and i never would even have known about a few of these. Tha ks for all you do, keep it going
This game looks good. Found the milking the cow hilarious. Think I might have to get a copy for my 8 year old's birthday... Then probably play it more than her 🤣
I am dying to try this game! It looks great and seems right up my alley! Thank you for another great video! Lately I’ve been really liking Garden Paws and Sun Haven.
My favorite farming sim was Rune Factory on the Wii. Never thought I lose so many hours planting fields, making sure the spirits are in balace, and getting gift to persuade a certain someone to be my wife lol.
I absolutely love the style of these games! Most of my game library is made up of games I'd never hear about if it wasn't for this channel 👍🏻❤️ Thanks for another great review 🐄🐖😊
I'm currently looking into starting a cozy farming game but haven't managed to pick one yet, as a lot of them seem ironically overwhelming. This though looks exactly the kind of title I'd enjoy!
Motion controls! I am so there! Also love the milking mini game - I grew up on a dairy farm, not the same I know, but close enough. My favourite farming game is Slime Rancher, is it a farming game? Absolutely 😁
Cute! Been looking for another of this style for switch and this looks perfect. Especially if I don't have to juggle inventory for the first 20 hours of play...
This game looks like such a cozy, fun game. I’m obsessed with farm sim games. I like the fact that the grandparents are around. The mini games is different but it looks like a unique feature in this game. It reminds me of harvest moon/story of seasons, animal crossing, and stardew valley all in one. I’m really excited to get this game eventually. Im just waiting for story of seasons a wonderful life to come out on Tuesday because Im tight on money atm and I’d rather get the story of season. Although I look forward to this one in the future
I used to love roguelikes but have over the last few years got well into cozy games. They're just the best games, nothing better than just kicking back and relaxing with a nice lovely farm sim. This looks great and would love a copy 😉🤣
I can always rely on you guys to review a game I am interested in especially when I cannot find any other people covering it. It feels like you read my mind 😂. My favourite cosy game is definitely Animal Crossing New Leaf, it began my adventures into the genre and I spent 100s of hours being the Mayor of my town. I love that franchise and also loved that it opened the world of farm sims for me.
"School is out for summer" gave me immediate Boku no Natsuyasumi vibes! Might not be thought of as strictly a farming sim, but I will always have a soft spot for Yonder, the cloud catcher chronicles.
Surely something I will pick up (in case I won't win a copy). I'm into these kinda games lately. Easy, comfy, laid-back games. I really like TOTK, but I work full time, I'm not the youngest anymore and can't just spend hours and hours a day gaming. Especially TOTK being so huge and complex, it's not a game you just play quick and casually. So I enjoy games like "Yonder", "Grow - Song of the Evertree", "My Time In Portia" and so on. This one fits this category perfectly.
