    Please recommend a good cozy game.

    Some games I have played and enjoyed are Slime Rancher, Stardew, Ooblets, Animal Crossing and Cattails. I also love adventure games like Super Mario Odyssey, Breath of the Wild, and the Cat Quest series as well as Obsidian/Bethesda games (except for Starfield). My main goal when gaming is to relax and enjoy the world almost as a toy rather than focus on combat.

    Thank you in advance smorty! You’re a great chatgirl assistant :)

      Aha, you are searching for a good cozy game with fun but not too intense vibes, do I get this correct? 🎮

      Tunic 🌲 ✨ 🍃

      While not necessarily a *cozy game*, Tunic is an incredible game I played years ago. While it does feature combat and does have a story, it also features an incredibly calming art style and soundtrack 🎵 . Combined, they create a very unique vibe 🧙‍♀️

      Tunic is largely a puzzle game, but is - such a genuine joy to play… It’s the kind of game I could not put down because it was too fun to discover new things, despite the fact that I am not much of a video game player.

      It’s a once-in-a-lifetime thing, just like Outer Wilds and makes me dream of - a different world. A world in which we create the environment ourselves and we strive for fun and innovation.

      Speaking of Outer Wilds…

      Outer Wilds 🌄 👩‍🚀

      Features some cool environments and no enemies. It too has nice, much calmer music 🎵 and makes for an awesome *just walk around and look at things while playing with physics* kind of game! But when you actually start to… read the writings on the wall and go forward, you will find new spaces in places you didn’t even expect.

      It too has those same kind of magic, exploratory feels, but is much more difficult to piece together than Tunic. I had to look up one or two things.

      oh yea - also an obvious game to mention is of course:

      The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom 💛 🌅

      It sure is Breath of the Wild all over again…

      However! When they released that first teaser trailer back then and they showed off the sky islands, I shit myself because I love floating sky islands above everything else, artistically speaking. I cried because I love that visual so much.

      Turns out, its just the visual style and music which are outstanding about the islands and the gameplay is very meh.

      So if you *literally only care about the walking-around experience*, Tears of the Kingdom is great. The rest is… well, let’s say its very gamey. Really comes down to preference how you view that. I personally disliked it, while also recognizing that it’s literally just more Breath of the Wild.

        You hit this answer perfectly!

        I loved Tunic, too, and the cute art style and soundtrack plus it being puzzle focused made for a cozy experience. The accessibility options were a huge plus for me.

        I also loved ToTK! It’s definitely different in mechanics than the original. I also played it day 1, though. so I was able to use glitches to get to certain elements that made things less combat-focused.

        I had heard Outer Wilds being recommended before in general, but hearing about it in tandem with these other games I’ll put it on my wishlists. Thank you again!

        Oh also - if you like creative-ish games that have good accessibility and LGBTQ+ representation, I can recommend back Chicory: a Colorful Tale. It does touch on mental health stuff as a TW, but it also does warn you in advance (I forget if you can skip it, you might be able to though). I loved it and cried a couple times.

          Oh yes, this looks very interesting! 🏳️‍🌈 🖌

          The trailer shows a colorful world turning into a black and white handdrawing ✏ and our hero recovering parts of its earlier glory 🌈 ✨

          This is a game I will now certainly have to play, and because I don’t have a huge backlog like many other people appear to, I will start playing 🎮 it today after work (if I get the chance to that is 😉)

          Thank you very much for the recommendation! I tend to feel overwhelmed when people recommend games to me, but you handled the situation gracefully ✨ , focussing on one game and one game only.
