It’s that time of week again when I wax poetic about the cozy games that I’m personally planning to play. This week is a bit different because it includes cozy news that I’m excited for and game demos that I plan to check out!
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.
Cozy games on my wishlist!
CLEANING.INC
CLEANING.INC is a cute little cleaning game. You’ll take on the role of manager at a newly established cleaning company and be responsible for completing 25 levels throughout the neighborhood. Collect stickers, buy items from the store, and try your luck betting at the casino in town.
ALCHEMIXUM
ALCHEMIXUM is a puzzle game where you restore a broken planet through mixing and matching elements through the Great Alchemixum, a magical sticker book. Combine the stickers starting with the basic four elements and build out from there to restore the world to its former glory! Featuring a fairy, hundreds of elements, scenery mode, and 36 Steam achievements!
Rogue Factory
Rogue Factory is an automation bullet heaven, so while it may seem chaotic visually, you’ll have everything perfectly in hand. Build a spellcasting factory, unlock 20+ characters, and over 100 golden totems. Build, automate, autocast, and watch as you tear through wave after wave of enemies. Experience 10 difficulty levels, regular mode, endless mode, and a daily challenge mode!
Peace Island
Peace Island is an adventure exploration game where humans disappear and all that is left are animals. You’ll journey around a remote island off the coast of Maine entirely at your own pace. Pick between 9 different cats to play, experience a weather system, discover 200 years of alternate history, and end the story with one of three endings. Your choices matter and shape the way the game plays out.
D1AL-ogue
D1AL-ogue is a match-3 puzzle game where you run a cyberpunk repair clinic and fix androids in Chroma City. Use the old-school diagnostic console (D1AL) to rotate and merge three of the same modules into higher-tiered units. Just be careful to place things precisely and not to spread electronic narcotics that will overload units and cause them to explode. This game is FREE TO PLAY, so grab your repair kit and get started!
Trust Me, I Nailed It
Trust Me, I Nailed It is a turn-based strategy game where you are a video editor for a less-than-awesome warrior. Edit, stitch, and fake the footage to turn your zero into a hero! By completing goals, you’ll optimize your system and unlock more memory capacity so you can keep chugging out edits of would-be glorious battle! It’s FREE TO PLAY, so get your software ready for some editing!
PurrPlate
PurrPlate is a resource management game where you manage a sprawling restaurant staffed by adorable cats. Build out your design with over 50 modular components and fill them with over 100 different cats! Decode recipes, trade with mole merchants, and more! Snuggle down and create the Purr-fect woodland cafe!
Prescribe and Pray
Prescribe and Pray is a comedy game where you play as an incompetent doctor. You’ll examine and diagnose patients with weird symptoms, prescribe them treatment, and hope that you didn’t just send them to their doom. Your choices matter and you’ll have to be on top of your game when checking identity and insurance to not get scammed! Ready to put your medical know-how to the test?
Cozy news I’m hyped for
Spirit City: Lofi Sessions Enchanted Gardens DLC
Spirit City: Lofi Sessions just announced a new paid DLC called Enchanted Gardens. It’s unknown when it’ll get released, but we do know that it’ll bring 13 new Spirit companions, which I’m hyped for. There’s also a garden area with a greenhouse and gazebo to hang out at, new activities, and more avatar items to express a gardening or cottagecore aesthetic.

If you’re in Europe, that sale doesn’t go live until the 11th and lasts until the 17th.
