Grounded
Spring is not only the season when leaves turn green and flowers bloom, but it also means insects are back, and you’re suddenly surrounded by bees, butterflies, and some… not so pleasant creatures. In the survival game Grounded, these insects become more than just a little annoying after you’ve been shrunk to the size of an ant and must fight to survive in your own backyard-turned-wilderness.
The creative building system lets you craft cozy hideouts in the grass or intricate fortresses in the branches. Whether you’re gathering resources, uncovering the secrets of your mysterious situation, or just enjoying the sunlit backyard, Obsidian has made another game that’s fun from beginning to end. With its vibrant, nature-inspired world and a good mix of challenge and relaxation, Grounded feels like stepping into a childhood daydream filled with discovery, teamwork, and the occasional (adorable yet terrifying) bug encounter.
Gardenia
Gardenia is one of the best spring games, with its vibrant colors and a sense of renewal and fresh starts. This charming first-person gardening simulator mixes cozy world-building with a lighthearted adventure. You’ll travel to a peaceful island in need of some love and care, and work alongside Wood Grandpa to clean up pollution, plant beautiful gardens, and restore life to the land.
The game focuses on exploration, discovery, and creativity. As you restore the island, you’ll find hidden treasures, solve a mystery, and even discover magical mushrooms that unlock new areas. The relaxed gameplay allows you to design your own dream garden, interact with quirky characters, and customize the island as you wish. The vibrant landscapes, soothing atmosphere, and uplifting environmental message make Gardenia the perfect game for relaxing and enjoying the spirit of spring.
Europa
Set on a lush, terraformed version of Jupiter’s moon, Europa invites you to step into the role of Zee, an android seeking answers amidst the ruins of a lost utopia. One aspect of this game we enjoyed was the sense of movement and freedom. With a gradually upgraded jetpack, you’ll glide effortlessly over rolling meadows, tranquil lakes, and towering cliffs, flowing from boost to boost like a spring breeze.
The world feels lively yet calm, offering a space to breathe and enjoy the beauty around you. The game’s pastel landscapes, soft lighting, and ambient soundtrack create a peaceful atmosphere of reflection, similar to a long walk through nature as winter ends. The story—focused on discovery, loss, and humanity’s bond with nature—unfolds smoothly, encouraging you to slow down and take in every detail.
Europa is a quick but memorable trip, lasting only a few hours. It’s the perfect way to welcome the changing season, encouraging exploration, curiosity, and the joy of just being in the moment.

The platformer Neva is a stunning work of art from the creators of GRIS, whom we were fortunate enough to interview. This captivating action-adventure game follows Alba and her wolf companion as they traverse a breathtaking and heartbreaking world. You’ll witness the seasons change in real-time, reflecting the emotional growth of their bond. Once fragile and unsure, the young cub grows into a powerful force, just as spring brings new life after winter.

You’ll plant crops, befriend eccentric townspeople, and, best of all, raise your own adorable Ooblets, who follow you around like tiny, dancing sidekicks. Yes, dancing, because conflicts are resolved through wholesome, funky dance battles instead of fights in this world.
Everything about Ooblets feels like a breath of fresh (spring) air. The vibrant, pastel world is filled with lush greenery, blooming flowers, and a constant sense of renewal. You can customize your home however you want, from a cozy cottage to a retro-futuristic hideout, all while dressing up your character in fun and quirky outfits. The game never rushes you.
