Netflix's mobile gaming series gets another added to its roster with the Cozy Grove: Camp Spirit game. It is the sequel of the 2021 Animal Crossing-style Cozy Grove game that will be launching on Android and iOS platforms on June 25th. The new sequel is the first game that has been launched by developer Spry Fox since Netflix purchased the studio two years ago.
Belonging to the cozy gaming genre, games of this genre epitomize at-home entertainment for gamers of all backgrounds by creating a serene and comforting gaming experience that emphasizes relaxation over intense reaction-based gameplay.
When playing the game, users will take on high-stakes missions to help ghostly bears upgrade the haunted island they are on. The developer describes the game to be a "heartwarming adventure" where plays will “experience new activities, new ghost stories, new furry companions with stories and abilities of their own, and much more.”
