Games like Unpacking?! I’m not a video game gal, but I was hooked on this and want something that feels any combo of peaceful, cozy, and girly.

Davis · Answer

A Short Hike: You are a bird, and you need to climb a mountain so you can get better cell phone reception to call your mom. However (or whenever) you get there is up to you. The most charming game ever made, and it has a wonderfully composed soundtrack, too.

Whispers of the House: Probably the closest to unpacking game I’ve found. Just played the first hour and I’m hooked! Very pretty. There’s also a supernatural vibe going on.

Tiny Bookshop Game: I'm not an expert on cozy games, but I don't think it would be a stretch to say that this is one of THE coziest of cozy games 📚 The premise: you have left the big city and moved to a seaside town to set up your own tiny bookshop!

My Leisure Time Game: My Leisure Time is a chill house decorating app. The game always seems to have limited time events where you can “buy” furniture styles and decorate your house. The higher your level gets, the more decor you unlock. Some of the inspiration house designs on Pinterest are so insanely pretty but I don’t have access to all of the furniture yet.
