The world of Critter Cove just got bigger!

Gentleman Rat, in collaboration with tinyBuild, has announced that Critter Cove's free closed beta on Steam will commence starting September 26, 2023.

Key Features:

• Rebuild a Neglected Town: Employ your engineering skills to improve the town, bringing back shops and community spaces. If the Caring Community Commission approves, you'll lift Critter Cove through the ranks, unlocking new buildings to renovate, new items to craft, and new features to enrich your town!
• Salvage Trash, Craft Treasures: Rebuild the town of Critter Cove from the ground up. Craft weird and wonderful items using resources scavenged from across the world. Repurpose trash, debris, and driftwood into useful tools, machinery, and furniture.⠀
• Recruit New Critters and Build a Community: As your town levels up, you'll need to find and recruit an adorable cast of animal townsfolk to move in. Assign them jobs that suit their unique personalities, build them homes, and help them become a part of your flourishing island community.
• Make New Friends: From a snarky bearded dragon to a robot puzzled at the peculiarities of meat-based beings, you'll always be forging new relationships with the world's eclectic characters.
• Explore a Hand-Crafted Open World: Expand the town's horizons by exploring an intricate open world for relics, blueprints, and shipwrecked critters.
