Press release:
[Wiesbaden, Germany – November 22nd, 2023].
The Wiesbaden-based (Germany) indie games publisher and developer Assemble Entertainment and indie games developer VoodooDuck, are today very excited and happy to announce that their cozy strategy/puzzle game “Growth“, is coming to the Nintendo Switch (via the Nintendo Eshop) on December 21st, 2023 (the game is already available for PC via Steam).

“Growth” is a cozy, hexagonal-grid based soft-strategy game by VoodooDuck. Explore and populate a procedurally generated world by utilizing the unique abilities of animals. Growth blends the beauty of cozy exploration with challenging navigation around obstacles.

Populate and expand upon the procedurally generated land by working together with animals. As you expand, you’ll come across different animals, each with unique abilities that will help you overcome the game’s many obstacles. Explore and expand an ever-growing, procedurally generated map by cleverly connecting clusters of wildlife. Claim newfound clusters or points of interest to receive additional wildlife or, in some cases special rewards.

Features:

Cozy Meets Challenging: Hex grid based soft-strategy puzzle gameplay with intuitive design blends cozy exploration with challenging puzzles.
Zen-Like Campaign Mode: Growth’s Campaign Mode offers plenty to do, thanks to its randomly generated maps, which put your problem-solving skills to the test.
Relax and Expand: Cozy and idyllic setting; great for relaxing play-sessions, regardless of skill level.
Help From Your Friends: 8 different animals, including deer, boars, bees, and ducks – with unique abilities to expand your toolset for exploring.
Varied Terrain: 9 different tile types allow for beautifully crafted maps, each with distinct terrain to keep things fresh.
Replayability At the Forefront: Procedurally generated worlds make each foray into the forest different from the last.

Growth launches for Nintendo Switch on December 21st, 2023, and will be available for $9.99. Nintendo Switch pre-orders go live on December 14th (with a 20% pre-order discount available). Growth is also available on Steam and is Steam Deck Verified.
