Moonlight Peaks, the vampire-themed cozy life sim from developer Little Chicken Game Company, is now available on Steam and Nintendo Switch. Published by XSEED Games and Marvelous Europe, the game puts players in the role of a vampire farming and socializing in a supernatural small town, and it has already earned a Very Positive rating on Steam.
The game is priced at $34.99 with a 15% launch discount bringing it down to $29.74.
A nocturnal spin on the farming life sim
Rather than waking at dawn to tend crops, Moonlight Peaks flips the script. You play as a vampire who farms enchanted crops under moonlight, raises magical creatures like "Draculambs," and needs to be back in their coffin before sunrise. The supernatural framing is baked into the mechanics, not just painted on top of a standard harvest loop.
Spellcasting and potion brewing open up additional systems. You can learn magic from local witches, craft an "Alter Ego Elixir" to change your appearance, and shapeshift into a bat for flight, with more forms to find as you progress.
Seven supernatural families to befriend (or romance)
The town of Moonlight Peaks is home to seven families, each tied to a different creature type: werewolves, witches, mermaids, and others, plus one "normie" family for contrast. Romance options span across these groups, so yes, you can date a werewolf. The relationship system appears to be a central pillar rather than a side activity.
For players who have been following the broader wave of life sims moving beyond standard farming themes, Moonlight Peaks represents one of the more committed entries in that direction. It does not hedge its supernatural identity.
Platforms and availability
The game is available on Steam, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2, with a Google Play version also listed. A demo remains available on Steam and Switch for anyone still on the fence.
The Stardew Valley comparison is inevitable with any cozy farming sim, but Moonlight Peaks is carving a different niche. The nocturnal schedule, monster-centric cast, and gothic aesthetic give it a distinct personality that should appeal to players who want their life sims a little darker and weirder than the usual pastoral setup.
