James loves his Bubble Bobble games, so he will be looking forward to this new entry. In SUGAR DUNGEONS, you’ll blow bubbles to trap enemies, pop them with horns and spikes, and even use bubbles to ride the wind to higher places. As you collect treasures and level up Bub’s abilities, you’ll be able to dive even deeper into the dungeons.
Bubble Bobble SUGAR DUNGEONS is set to release on November 27, 2025, for Steam and for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 in Europe and Asia. The Japanese launch for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 will follow in 2026.

Albert’s Ark Idle Released
Albert’s Ark Idle is available now on Steam, bringing a magical mix of idle clicking and quirky adventure! Developed by Albert Tross Productions Pty Ltd, this 2D idle/clicker game blends fact and fiction in a whimsical world inspired by the Around the World with Albert Tross comic from Disney Adventures and the novel The Enchantment of Albert.
In Albert’s Ark Idle, you’ll restore a lost kingdom by clicking for resources, upgrading charming buildings, and diving into cozy mini-games like farming, fishing, and sailing. Along the way, you’ll collect Creature Essence to revive mythical allies—like Unicorns, Bigfoot, and Fairies—each bringing powerful bonuses to help you rebuild the island.
The game features pirate raids to defend against, evolving kingdom structures, and a prestige system that lets you reset your progress for lasting buffs. Whether you’re actively clicking or letting the game idle in the background, Albert’s Ark Idle offers enchanting progression and plenty of surprises.
There’s a free demo available on Steam.

Attend Magical University in Songs of Glimmerwick
One of our Patrons pointed out that there’s a story-driven witch academy RPG coming called Songs of Glimmerwick. Set in a charming woodland world where music is the key to spellcasting, the game invites you to a year full of magic, mystery, and melody.
As a new student in Glimmerwick’s famous magical university, you’ll attend classes, join clubs, and discover the island’s many secrets. Using a magical flute, you’ll cast spells through song—whether it’s making garden work easier, raising earth to clear paths, or even chatting with trees!
Songs of Glimmerwick features voiced dialogue, RPG-style quests, and a host of quirky characters to meet. You’ll grow magical plants, explore seasonal festivals, and take part in fun extracurriculars like moth-racing or seashell diving.
No release date has been confirmed just yet.
Misc. A Tiny Tale Slightly Delayed on Steam
A small update for those looking forward to Misc. A Tiny Tale: the Steam release has been slightly delayed and will now arrive on July 31st. But if you’re eager to explore its charming world a bit earlier, the Nintendo Switch version is still launching as planned on July 22nd.
Originally built with the Switch in mind, Misc. A Tiny Tale is said to run beautifully on the platform. The short delay for the Steam version is giving the developers extra time to polish performance, fine-tune controls for mouse and keyboard, and add PC-specific quality-of-life improvements. Steam players can also look forward to a brand-new set of achievements, designed especially for completionists.
Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley & Skytree Village Delayed
Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley & Skytree Village is coming to Nintendo Switch and brings you two farming adventures together in one package. Originally planned for June 2025, it’s delayed till July 31st.
Check out Natsume’s news here.
Both games have been optimized for the Switch with updated controls, a refreshed UI, and improved textures. The Lost Valley follows a quest to restore the four seasons to a magical valley, while Skytree Village challenges you to revive a once-thriving land by restoring the power of the Harvest Goddess. Both titles include all previously released DLC, adding new characters, outfits, and more.
