You know the drill around here by now. It’s National Handwriting Day (January 23rd) and I just used that as an excuse to pick a few cozy writing games to show you guys. All of these games feature writing in some form or another, whether you’re actively writing or you’re reading words in a letter.

One game features an anonymous way to express your feelings and find solace from strangers, another asks you to make silly little stories collaboratively with your friends, and the last one has you committing mail fraud! Well, authorized mail fraud. So, if you’ve ever been nosy about digging into someone’s mail, now is your chance!

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.

Kind Words (lo fi chill beats to write to)

Kind Words (lo fi chill beats to write to)

Kind Words (lo fi chill beats to write to) is an outlet more than a game. In it, you can write letters or sentences of anything you want or need to get off your chest and have anonymous words of encouragement received in return. You can even be that nameless voice for someone else in need. Chill out, put good out into the world, and collect some stickers.

Letters to Arralla

Letters to Arralla is an RPG adventure where you play a turnip delivering mail on an Australian island. Reading an address would be too impersonal, however. So, figure out where the mail goes by opening it and snooping through the contents! And, since you’re up to date on everything going on, you might be able to help solve some grievances between patrons while you’re at it!

Write Warz

Write Warz

Write Warz is a multiplayer storytelling party game. You and your friends will be tasked to write a sentence for a specific theme and then you’ll all vote for the best or funniest that fits the story. Bask in the glow of victory or seek revenge by using character abilities that cause disadvantages for other players. If you need a break from the story, you can cool off with a few mini-games until you’re ready to create the next best seller. The base game is FREE to play.
