New Release: Moonlight Peaks – Farming, Spellcraft, and Vampire Romance Under a Gothic Moon

Moonlight Peaks has landed, bringing a gothic twist to the cozy life-sim genre on PC, Switch, Switch 2, and Android. You’re playing a young vampire settling into your family’s abandoned homestead, and between night-time farming and courting werewolves, witches, and mermaids, there’s a warm, spooky charm here that sets it apart from the usual farming-sim crowd.

The Story / Concept

You’re the child of Count Dracula himself, and you’ve got something to prove: that a life of compassion is possible, even for the undead. Settling into your family’s long-abandoned homestead in the magical town of Moonlight Peaks, you’ll spend your nights farming cursed crops, brewing potions, and getting to know the seven supernatural families who call the town home — some of whom you might just fall for along the way.

Core Gameplay Features

1. Night-Time Farming — Grow mystical crops and raise magical livestock under the moon.
   • Telekinetic watering cans and other supernatural tools speed up the grind
   • Customize your gothic homestead as you expand it
2. Spellcraft and Shapeshifting — Learn witchcraft from the town’s witches and brew potions like the Alter Ego Elixir.
   • Shapeshift into a bat to explore the town after dark
   • Spells assist with both farming and foraging
3. Romance and Community — Befriend or romance around two dozen characters across seven supernatural families.
   • Relationship progression ties into an in-game card game called Nokturna
   • Uncover the mysteries behind each family as bonds deepen

Who Is This For?

Fans of cozy farming sims who’ve always wanted a little more gothic flavor in their crop rotation will feel right at home here. It’s an easy pick for anyone who enjoyed Stardew Valley’s rhythm but wanted witches, werewolves, and a supernatural dating pool instead of a straightforward country town.

Pro Tip

Try the free demo first if you’re on the fence — it lets you test character creation and a handful of activities like fishing and flower arranging before you commit, though demo progress won’t carry over into the full game.
