The town of Critter Cove used to attract visitors from all over the world. Now it’s mostly known for dirty streets and trash-strewn beaches. Can you help us turn things around?
Critter Cove is a combination life sim and town builder game with a beautiful, handcrafted open world to explore. 
Spend your doubloons to upgrade buildings and explore the world to discover new blueprints and gather resources to grow your town. More upgrades will improve Critter Cove’s tourist rating. The greater your tourist rating, the more new tourists will visit. The more new tourists, the more money in your pockets to upgrade the town. Get it? Yep, you totally get it.
Venture out into the mysterious tropical archipelago peppered with the ruins of a long-destroyed civilization. Dive beneath the waves to salvage the treasures of the old world. Rescue shipwrecked critters. Unearth exotic ingredients. It’s a wondrous world of mysterious ruins, shipwrecks and ancient technology waiting to be discovered.
As you explore, you’ll find resources to craft hundreds of different items, discover new construction blueprints and bring home unique plants to grow on your farm. Turn mundane salvage into something new and unique, and improve your tourism rating by offering your freshly grown food to visitors.
Use tourist money and salvaged items to restore rundown buildings and open up entirely new stores and venues for tourists and townsfolk. Craft decorations and interactive objects that will improve the town and make it uniquely yours. You can even decorate your very own home with hand-crafted (or hand-looted) furniture!
You’ll need help to restore the town, and luckily the world of Critter Cove is filled with many colorful characters. Some are easy-going and friendly… others might need some convincing! Rescue Critters across the world, assist them in building a home and help them find the perfect job in your community. Their happiness is the key to your success.
Embark on quests to find hidden treasures or ancient relics scattered throughout the world. Donate these artifacts to the Museum of Mystery to uncover the secrets of the long, long ago - and then charge tourists a small fee to the museum so they can absorb some local culture!
Create your perfect island persona with our robust customization system. Human or animal? Mammal or reptile? The head of a parrot and the tail of a monkey? It’s entirely up to you! Mix and match your physical attributes to your heart's content and discover that perfect tropical drip with hundreds of outfit combinations to craft and discover.

great game but no cloud save feature....
i liked the character customization that lets me make my own character on whats in the game. then i go find the boat parts for the first parts of the game.that after i was salvaging the 2 islands that are nearby somewhere on the west side for materials if it doesn't have cloud save feature updated for the game for boat parts story theory on rat infastation. for lamp boat part its for the lighting of the island for the island tourist attraction of its former glory before it was snuffed out for abandon unknown reasons then left irrepairable state its located after exiting the abandon workshop past it on the left beside exit then taking a right to find the lamp lighting. for grass cutter lawnmower part story it was used as a care taker to take care of the grass of the island tourist attraction that once had grass land of its former glory but was taken to the workshop that had nowhere left to store them after the island was shutdown for unknown reasons for repairs included but no materials could not be delivered to the island in a timly manner due to monsters in the way blocking the island from reciving the materials its located at the workshop behind a bunch of scrap in the corner from the exit part beside the left workshop part.for bathtub part story theory it used to be a outhouse service or a resident bathtub that resides outside in a seperate building or inside the owners building then somehow after the island shutdown when the maneger left it flew out the window if its in a building or if outside the building it was blown off the cliff after the separate building was blown away and onto the beach then left part buried until the player controled character picks it up for boat uses.its located at the separate part of the beach after a short swim then seeing the two meat plant then fruit plant passing them then left for bathtub boat part after seeing the chalk drawing descovery part collectable at the same time. thank you for listening to my story thats in my best personal intrest opinion.
