With a typical Switch eShop week bringing 40+ new games, plenty arrive with very little attention. One that has caught our eye but could have easily been missed is Luna's Fishing Garden, which arrived on 2nd September in Europe but had a fresh press release as it's arriving a week later in North America, on 9th September.
It's developed by Coldwild Games, which has also brought Merchant of the Skies to the Switch eShop.
Luna's Fishing Garden certainly falls into the wholesome/cosy genre, with a relaxed tone as you fish, create a garden and try to bring new animals to your home.
Luna's Fishing Garden is a short, cozy fishing and building game. Become a part of a fairytale, catch fish, trade with the fox spirit, and create the garden of your dreams by planting new trees, placing water objects, and bringing animals to the archipelago.
Progress at your own pace and enjoy catching fish, planting and watering trees, and settling animals on the islands. After you have completed the main plotline, you are welcome to stay and build your garden any way you want to. You can't lose in this one.
With beautiful pixel art and relaxing soundtrack, Luna's Fishing Garden is designed to take your worries away and immerse you in the colorful water world. Meet island spirits and complete their tasks, or simply relax and observe the world around you.
It's priced at £7.19 / 7,99€ in Europe, and will be $7.99USD when it arrives in North America later this week.
This looks like a rather decent chill-out game, let us know what you think in the comments.

Looks relaxing, wish it had co-op play of some kind.
what a case of genre fatigue. so many studios trying to push out the next Stardew, or the next Animal Crossing, and in doing so saturate the genre to the point where their new creations don't stand out anymore.
I thought this was a platformer with the fox as a protag for a second, and thought "wow, that character takes up WAY to much of the screen"
Oh look, another "looks like x mixed with y so therefore it will be amazing" indie game from a developer with poor pedigree.
I'm sure it'll be just as amazing as Baldo and Monster Harvester 🤣 - hey Nintendo Life remember all those hyped up previews?
Seems chill, will check out reviews
It has good reviews on Steam so I'll keep an eye on it.
It is cute. I guess the 'Jeremy Wade: River Monsters' license wasn't available.
