Publisher Tencent and its subsidiary Lillilandia Games are collaborating on a new cozy life-simulation game named Animula Nook. This game merges the delightful elements of Animal Crossing with the visual aesthetics inspired by It Takes Two, all encapsulated within a charming miniature world.

Set to launch on the Nintendo Switch 2, PC, and PlayStation 5, fans of relaxing games can catch a glimpse of Animula Nook through its first official trailer, showcasing its beautiful graphics and diverse gameplay.

In Animula Nook, players shrink down to a toy-like size, exploring vibrant environments made up of household plants and oversized everyday objects. The gameplay includes collecting sunlight, raindrops, and cute materials like coins and buttons to build cozy homes in milk cartons and cabinets. Players can also forge friendships with tiny humanoid characters, similar to the community systems found in games like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley.

Customization is a key feature, allowing players to choose from various outfits, hairstyles, and skin tones, creating a truly immersive experience. They can also float about the tiny world using special gliders and utilize slingshots to gather resources from flowers. Fans of collaborative play mechanics, reminiscent of It Takes Two, will find a fresh, cozy adventure waiting in Animula Nook.

With the cozy gaming genre gaining popularity, this title promises to introduce a unique narrative experience. The official launch date is yet to be announced, and intrigued players are encouraged to stay updated on new developments regarding Animula Nook.
