Caravan SandWitch–At a Glance Cozy Game Review

As you may or may not know, I have a new job. I haven’t had much time to write for myself or play cozy games. So, it is time for my Cozy Game YARL (Yet Another Random List) review.

Beep, beep! Get in, Friend. We’re Going Caravan: SandWitch

Game Info:

• I purchased this cozy game with my own real money.
• I bought this from Steam. It is also available on PS5, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox.

The At a Glance Review:

• Story: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
• Quests/Tasks: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
• Art Style:  ⭐⭐⭐⭐
• Combat: None.
• Controls: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
• Music: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Do I recommend it?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Yes, I do. This peaceful game encourages exploration, puzzle-solving, driving, and has themes of family and found family. If you need further convincing, I took so many screenshots. So. Many. Also, the music and soundtrack fit and are a delight.

What I Loved:

• You navigate a planet that is not Earth. It appears to be a lonely planet with scraggly grass and wind-bent trees. You are returning to your home after being gone for five years. Your father lives here, as do a few stubborn humans. A resource-hungry cooperation has nearly stripped the planet and has abandoned it. They left behind factories, robots, machines, obsolete tech, and buildings. You remember how it used to be and wonder how it will be as something you thought well-buried in your past suddenly crops up again.
• You play as Sauge, a former resident of said planet. You’re a pilot.
• You eventually get to drive a cozy caravan van—it might even be a camper van. It was made by the last big tech company that abandoned the entire planet. It is the last of the working vans and is essential. It’s how almost everyone travels, and they rely on you to drive them.
• You collect obsolete tech for town repairs and for yourself.
• You get additions to your camper van unlocked via obsolete tech.
• Puzzles!

What didn’t work for me?

I cannot think of a single thing.

Accessibility?

I’ll wait to see what Can I Play That? says.
