Cozy Games Today: December 1st, 2025
Pocket Gecko
Pocket Gecko is a creature-collecting idler that sits on your desktop screen. Your little gecko is customizable and has four islands to unlock. Collect over 80 different bugs to sell or keep for special bonuses. I’m such a sucker for silly little guys and bug collectors, so I’m coveting hard.
The Art of Reflection
The Art of Reflection is a puzzle platformer. You’ll traverse a world of mirrors, uncovering secrets and solving puzzles. What’s hiding in the glimmering surfaces? Will objects and even gravity be the same inside? You’ll make your way through a labyrinth of architecture where things aren’t always as they seem.
Idlequarium
Idlequarium is a simulation game where you can keep a fully customizable aquarium on your desktop screen. Open up fish packs to discover over a hundred different freshwater and saltwater fish. Watch them grow and sell them for a profit. Complete management tasks for added perks and make your life easy by automating feeding!

Which games are making it onto your wishlist? I’ve got so many today that it isn’t even funny. I love the silliness of Pocket Gecko, The Art of Reflection seems like trippy fun, and I need a fish tank on my screen from Idlequarium. But in Billy Mays’ fashion, that’s not all! I’m looking at Wild Growth, OreMania, and tentatively, Leaf Blowing Simulator.
And, who isn’t adding The Perfect Tower II and Yuletide Regicide to their library? They’re free!
