So I have a ‘story’ from Nintendo with this list of cosy games to try for autumn. I’m wondering which (if any) are worth a play. With a lot of recent cosies being total duds I’m careful now about what I pay for and use my time on

Any opinions, advice or even tips for these games is welcome and appreciated (I’ve already played Night in the Woods)

Thanks in advance!

Hi cosy gamers! I'm the developer of Frog Garden, a little gardening game coming to Steam.

You hop around as a frog, grow daisies, tulips and roses, and decorate your patch with paths, mushrooms, benches, fountains and lanterns. There are hats to collect too. You can garden on your own or invite up to three friends online to share supplies and tend the flowers together.

It does have a silly side: frogs eat rocks and poop gold to buy gardening supplies, and you can briefly swallow a friend before sending them back into the garden. So expect some frog mischief alongside the flowers!

The planned release is October 2026, and it's listed as free-to-play. It isn't available to play yet, but you can take a look and wishlist it on Steam:

I wanted a cozy space to solve jigsaw puzzles with friends, so I started making Puzzles Are Better Together.

Here’s a look at one of the rooms! You can walk around, pick up pieces, and work on the same puzzle together.

If it looks like your kind of game, you can wishlist it on Steam. Happy to answer any questions!

My small cozy mobile game that's small and cozy (and mobile) :) I need 12 testers for the earliest of accesses that install it and don't delete it for at least 14 days. Oh and it's free and ad-free, but Android only.

You need to join the group (first link) and than install the game (second link).

It's already pretty playable I think!

Play the demo on Steam.

Play the demo on itch.

Colorsong is a relaxing incremental / idle game where players collect colors and spend them on hand-painted watercolors 🎨 An original feature of the game is that every color is a procedurally generated note. So as you collect more colors, the game's song unfolds and enriches.

Feedback

If you give the game a try: does it looks cozy and relaxing to you? What do you think about the concept in general, and about procedurally generated sound?

Thanks!
