It’s Book Publishers Day (January 16th) and I don’t need any more reason to write up a list of 3 cozy book games! If you want something a bit more interactive than reading a book and you’re not quite ready to publish something, then run a virtual store of your own from the list below!

We do our best not to highlight games that use Generative AI at any level of development or marketing. At the time of posting, these games have not reported or disclosed using Gen AI. Likewise, all articles are written and edited by humans… as evidenced by our occasional errors.
