What is your definition of a "cozy game"? What makes it cozy?

Recommended Posts

What is your definition of a "cozy game"? I'm interested in understanding the elements that contribute to this atmosphere. Is it the gameplay mechanics, art style, music, or narrative aspects? How do these features work together to create a sense of warmth and comfort for players during their gaming experience?

A cozy game creates a low-stakes environment where failure has minimal consequences. For me, coziness comes from gentle progression systems that reward consistency rather than skill, aesthetically warm environments with natural elements, and gameplay loops that allow me to set my own goals at my own pace without external pressure.

A cozy game to me is something that I can chill out on, relax and just do little things that don't take too much skill. 

One game I would class as being cozy would be Animal Crossing: New Horizons. That game is chill, relaxing and there is so much you can do that helps you chill out.

A cozy game is a game that I can just chill and enjoy, not much difficulty that I have to deal with.  If I have to sweat profusely while pressing my controller then it’s not a cozy game.
