The Rabbit Haul Blending Farming Sim and Tower Defense

Caldera Interactive has announced The Rabbit Haul, a cosy yet strategic blend of farming sim and tower defence, set to launch on PC and Nintendo Switch in 2026. You play as a speedy rabbit working to rebuild your hometown after the mischievous Trash Panda Posse wreaks havoc.

By day, you’ll cultivate crops, gather resources, and strategically plant defensive towers to protect your haul. When night falls, waves of raccoons attack, forcing you to defend your garden with upgraded weapons and well-placed defences. With a randomly generated world full of quests, treasures, and allies, no two playthroughs are the same. Between runs, you can upgrade towers, unlock merchants, and refine your strategy.

The Rabbit Hauls seems to be a unique mix of cosy farming, tower defence, and roguelike adventure.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure, is getting a special physical Deluxe Edition this spring. Of course, the digital version (standard and deluxe) is already out, and when Lynne reviewed it, she gave it our highest rating:

“Hello Kitty Island Adventure is a wonderful combination of building friendships, questing, exploring, and collecting, all set in a bright and colourful world.

I wasn’t sure if the Hello Kitty cuteness and the daily nature of progress would work for me, but I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the game. Even though we are at the start of 2025, Hello Kitty Island Adventure is a strong contender for one of my games of the year.”
