We’re beyond excited to announce that we’re opening the doors for a second Closed Playtest! After receiving an incredible amount of helpful feedback from our first test, we’re ready to welcome a new wave of players to experience the next stage of Collector’s Cove development.

Come unwind in our cozy farming haven—where you can set sail with your loyal animal companion by your side and farm, fish, island-hop and drift across the seas to complete your Collector's Compendium!

You can register for our next Collector's Cove playtest starting today! Registration will remain open until we have all the participants we need.

Spots are limited, so signing up gives you a chance to participate—but not everyone will be selected.

Since we're a small team, we want to ensure we can give every participant the attention they deserve. That means spots are limited—we want to read all your feedback, engage with you, and make meaningful improvements based on your experiences.

While registering doesn’t guarantee a spot, don’t worry! This is just one of many chances to be part of Collector’s Cove’s journey!
