Overview

In Cry Me a Cosmos, you are a low-ranking god assigned to a small universe. Your job?

Plant Mortals, water them, and make them cry. Developed and published by OVERDOOR, this Early Access title blends roguelike deckbuilding with simulation and strategy.

The game launched on October 30, 2026, and supports English, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Spanish (Latin America), Portuguese (Brazil), and Russian.

Highlights

  • Tear Harvesting: Mortals grow from Seeds through infancy, childhood, adulthood, and old age. Their tears are your primary resource, and you must satisfy the demands of higher gods.
  • Limited Waterings: Every Watering advances the entire garden at once. Since water and space are limited, each move matters. Mortals may cry, grow, attack, reproduce, or die—so careful arrangement is key.
  • Twelve Tributes + Apocalypse: Survive twelve increasingly demanding tributes, then harvest 666 Tears in the final Apocalypse Stage to end the universe.
  • Dark Humor & Stylized Violence: The game uses dark humor around cultivating humans and turning their suffering into resources. Violence is stylized and non-graphic, with no blood, gore, or sexual content.
  • Single-Player with Achievements: Enjoy a solo experience with Steam Achievements and Family Sharing support.

Who It's For

If you enjoy resource management puzzles, roguelike decision-making, or darkly comedic god games, Cry Me a Cosmos offers a unique twist. The 5×5 garden forces you to think several steps ahead, and the escalating tributes keep the pressure on.

It's ideal for players who like strategic planning with a morbid sense of humor.
