Lovers of small animals exploring towns at night are having a great time this summer, as The Spirit and the Mouse follows hot on the tail of Stray, a game about a cat (shouldn't it be the other way around?).
Made by a tiny indie studio based in Montreal, Canada, The Spirit and the Mouse is an adventure game that features Lila (a mouse) and Lumion (a spirit), an unlikely team that have to work together to restore power to their village. The game is full of electricity-based puzzles and friendship-based storytelling, and promises to be a heartwarming experience. And if this all sounds a little familiar, it might be because we featured the game in our Nintendo Life Indie Spotlight back in April.
The Spirit and the Mouse will come out on Nintendo Switch for $19.99 on September 26th, 2022, at the same time as a PC release across Steam, Epic, GOG, and itch.io.

I wish Stray was coming to switch, love cats and love post-apocalyptic settings, but this looks nice too
Firs The Cat Game, then The Mouse Game...
...I awai The Do Game.
I wish it has PS4 / PS5 version in physical release.
Thanks for the update, Kate. I've wondered about this game, but couldn't remember the title or find the indie/direct it was in.
Looks quirky and a bit like Stray, I’m in.
A game about an electric mouse on Switch! Who would have thought?
When you say “soon”, does that mean it’ll come out by 2024?
Stray & It Takes Two has teased they’re coming out on the Switch but who knows?
Looking at the Coming Soon section as well as online stores, there’s no mention of a release date on the Switch.
