Personally, I’ve been enjoying cozy games like Dorfromantik, Rail Route, or even Transport Fever 2 (I just play with unlimited money and build great transit networks that I wish existed in my home country.)

Just as a point of interest, it doesn’t work properly in the Android version of Firefox. Use Chrome.

Also a bit buggy in Firefox desktop on Linux.

Cozy games stress me out and give me anxiety.

Screw anyone who says Stardew Valley is a cozy game. If I don’t water my plants they die! If I stay up too late I’ll lose money! I can’t get the fish I need unless I fish at 6pm in the mountain lake on a rainy Tuesday in winter! Abigail has once again dominated me at the egg hunt! Ahhhhh!

And the days go by so fucking fast, I swear rainbow six siege is less stressful.

You know what gives me stress? Websites that reinvent scrolling.

Oh shit. I probably would have thought that site didn’t work and I would have given up immediately if I hadn’t read that comment.

I think I both love and hate that.

I recently bought Dredge because I thought it was a cozy fishing game with some relaxed adventure bits. Oh was I silly.
