What's cozy gaming? It's just that - gaming that provides a cozy atmosphere; relaxing, comforting, not stressful. After learning about this newer gaming genre, I realized cozy gaming has always been what I've been interested in and played. Probably one of the most popular cozy games? The Animal Crossing series, and well, I've put in hundreds of hours into Animal Crossing New Horizons and New Leaf. I've explored this genre with Stardew Valley, My Time at Portia, Disney Dreamlight Valley and Story of Seasons as well. I love these cozy farming-type games.
In September, two new cozy games are being released and they have topped my wish list!
Fae Farm: magic + cozy gaming style = Yes please! Fae Farm is a highly anticipated game being released in September. I have seen it advertised everywhere. After finally sitting down to read about the game and watch a trailer, it skyrocketed to the top of my cozy gaming wish list.
From Nintendo:
"Escape to the world of Fae Farm and create your own cozy home in the enchanted world of Azoria. As you nurture and grow your homestead, you'll get to meet charming characters, foster deep relationships and discover ways to infuse magic into everything you do. Customize your character, master the arts of crafting, cooking, potion-making and discover so much more.
Unfold the mysteries of the island on your own or with up to three other players. You can invite your family and friends or visit their homestead to progress together, playing beside you or online. As the seasons change, you'll be able to unlock new areas and restore the world around you"
I cannot wait to play this and experience the different seasons! Any game that decorates for the holidays and adjusts the recipes/potions/DIYs to represent the specific season is extra cozy to me!
I have been getting targeted ads for Paleo Pines for the last month. Apparently dinosaurs + cozy gaming is very me and my phone knew it. This game reminds me of My Time at Portia from what I've seen so far and that's very OK by me.
From Nintendo:
"Welcome to Paleo Pines, a charming island known for its friendly dinosaurs, quirky townsfolk, and mysterious past. Here evolution took a different path, creating a world in which humans and dinosaurs live together in harmony!
Set out with your dino companion, Lucky, to uncover the island’s secrets and discover new dinos. Your arrival on the island is met with welcome curiosity by the local townsfolk who can help you on your quest (and just might give you more work to do!). Together with Lucky, grow crops, assist local villagers, befriend adorable dinosaurs, and unearth the island’s lost history to build your cozy dino sanctuary."
Who doesn't want to create a dinosaur sanctuary?! This game looks like it'll be so much fun.
Do you play video games at all? Cozy Gaming has become such a hit because it really is a relaxing and great way to unwind.
