Publisher Dear Villagers has finally released Fabledom on Nintendo Switch. The indie game sold over 150k copies during early access and boasted over 2.8k positive reviews, so we can’t wait to give it a go ourselves on console.

Indie studio Grenaa Games first launched Fabledom in early access in April 2023 and consistently updated it with new features and improvements since then, creating the cozy city-builder game we see now. You might not consider city builders to be in the cozy genre as they’re sometimes incredibly stressful, but Fabledom’s laid-back approach and fantasy setting sets it apart from other, more strategy-intensive games out there.

Fabledom blends classic city-building mechanics and resource management with leadership aspects from games like Age of Empires, romance and relationship options, and a whimsical fantasy setting with literal flying pigs. All of these features coupled with the immensely positive feedback from early access are even more impressive when you learn that Grenaa Games is a two-person dev team and Fabledom is its first game.
