All adorable indie game lovers can rejoice now that Whitethorn Games announced that their bee-life simulation, APICO, is making its way over to the Nintendo Switch July 7th.
Whitethorn Games announced that the hit indie game APICO, which has garnered attention from large and small gamers alike, will be making its way over to Nintendo Switch. Soon, gamers can bring their own special kind of bees along wherever they go by purchasing APICO Switch, and keep the bees safe while on the go.
In APICO, the crossroads of real-life and fantasy gardening are where you’ll discover just how easy it is to maintain a healthy hive. In many ways, this game resembles apiary midwifery in that both provide clues about the origins of beekeeping and horticulture. The magical islands in APICO are overcrowded with exciting species that you must rescue and restore to their rightful homeland. What’s more, some of these bees may even create new species if you give them pollen from a different plant!
Adding even more good vibes to your well-designed APICO Collectibles, there is a special limited edition plush from TNgineers available for both you and the young ones in your life to enjoy! This new bee will be sure to drive your honeypot wild as this adorable plushie roams around your hive. You’ll love how soft it feels, and your little buzzies will enjoy how cute Beeatrice is as a part of your house!
