Okay, so there’s this thing called indie.io. Ever heard of it? It’s this spot where games—like a ton of ’em—get published. And FYI, some are on sale for the Switch until July 30. Sweet, right?
So, indie.io—yep, that’s what we’re chatting about—throws in all sorts of genres. Cozy, tactical, creatures, and then—BOOM—management sims! You follow? Anyway, I’ll toss out six games from the sale that caught my fickle eye. Let’s roll.
### Echoes of the Plum Grove
Currently 20% off, if you’re curious.
Picture this: you’re on an island, probably smelling of seaweed, and you find a small bit of land. Cute, right? Over time, this turns into a multi-generational saga. And there’s drama—befriend folks or egg on some spicy neighbor rivalries. Maybe even chat up some witches. I dunno why, but the idea of yelling at digital neighbors is just… anyway, you get it. The world? Full-on hand-drawn, making everything feel extra homey. Relationships and island mysteries? Yes, please.
### Dark Deity
Whoa, 75% off! That’s like finding a $20 bill you forgot in your pocket.
So imagine classic RPG vibes with a twist. Raise an army, strategize, and watch your lil’ soldiers grow up big and strong. Unless, of course, they get whomped and their stats tank. Bummer. We’re talking 30 characters and a sprawling 28-chapter story. Plus, extra DLC! More levels, more lore, and lots of sword-swinging fun.
### Coromon
Half off, but don’t ask me how much that is.
Monster catching is back—over 100 monsters waiting for you. Each has its quirks, like stamina and traits and stuff. It’s kinda like Pokémon, but with a twist, or a swerve… heck, more like a zigzag. And there’s this whole story across various biomes with plot twists popping out like confetti. Who would’ve thunk?
### Cat Cafe Manager
40% off… just saying.
So this does what it says on the tin. Run a cat café! You get this rundown joint in a place called Caterwaul—I know, right? Just adorable. So, spruce it up, make friends both feline and not, and maybe uncover some small-town secrets. Will you find out the perfect blend of coffee? Will a cat steal your sandwich? Mysteries abound.
### 9 Years of Shadows
35% off, hands down.
Weird one: a Metroidvania game where, yup, color’s been MIA for almost a decade. You’re Europa, not the moon, but a warrior with a floating bear buddy—because why not? Together, you battle to bring back the technicolor dream world. Soundtrack by composers you might’ve heard—bam! Game’s full of surprises, really.
### Mail Time
Rounding things off with a snug 30% off.
We’re back to cozy now. Imagine being a courier wandering through a forest—a real cottagecore dreamscape. Customize your look, deliver letters, and… I kinda lost my train of thought imagining a squirrel in a postal hat. No stress, no danger. Just peaceful deliveries and upgrades. Pure digital downtime.
So that’s indie.io’s sale for you—a smorgasbord of gaming oddities and wonders. Dive in if you dare!
