Tales of Seikyu is a cozy farming sim that stars a whole bunch of half-animal/half-human hybrids known as Yokai (as well as a few just regular humans), all of whom are meant to look conventionally attractive so that when you get further down the line, you can make one of them your boo and get them to help you out on your mystical quest to find your parents and the rest of the fox clan…

Thrifty Business is a shop management simulator developed by Spellgarden Games. If that name sounds familiar to you, it's because they released Ritual of Raven in 2025, which was one of my favourite games of last year.

Coffee Talk: Tokyo is more talk than coffee and tells the story, over 15 night shifts in an old-school cozy cafe, of a variety of regular customers from all walks of life (and death)

Hozy is a casual and relaxing decorating sim that features 9 different diorama-like rooms, all with their own vibes and stories, which require a certain amount of TLC to get looking their best. The entire game took me just under 3 hours to finish, so this one certainly is bite-sized, but what it perhaps lacks in depth it certainly makes up for in its visual appeal.

Is Collector's Cove the next cozy game worth playing?

Make Room is a cozy room builder that has you creating dioramas of varying sizes that either meet the requirements of the ‘guided requests’ or let you run wild with the sandbox.

In Trash Goblin, you’ll play as, unsurprisingly, a goblin who runs a small trinket store. The goal of the game is to chisel out items at customers' requests, clean and polish those objects, and ultimately sell them for profit. I know that probably doesn’t sound all that thrilling, and it isn’t, but that’s kind of the point.

Spilled! is a bite-sized experience with a satisfying idea used to its maximum viable potential.
