There's nothing better than lying down after a long day and opening a new game that will relax you and make you forget about reality. These are some I could play for hours!
My favorite!
A farming simulator that has more than just that - you can do just about anything and it's very addictive.
Stardew Valley
Really one of the best games I found this year. Even if it's still in Early Access, it has so much charm to it and it's so cozy.
The mechanics are similar to Stardew Valley, yet it has it's own uniqueness and it's amazing for those who look for that ...
Fields of Mistria
The art style is so pretty to me, and the gameplay is relaxing.
I've only recently got into this game but can't recommend it highly enough!
Luma Island
Clean and decorate homes or other spaces how you desire! It's not just about a simulation but it has a really nice story behind it too
House Flipper 2
Help locals settle into their new homes, set up their shops and discover what secrets does this city hide...
Whisper of the House
Sell books and help people in a small town near the ocean.
Tiny Bookshop
This is a survival game but made to be cute and cozy. You play as a mouse who's trying to renovate his home and you go out and gather materials for the repairs.
Winter Burrow
Your job is to inspect all of the antiquities that people from your town bring your way. These items are full of mysteries and it's up to you to discover their secrets.
Strange Antiquities
What I like about this game is it's story and how relaxing it is. It's not just about farming- I can make potions and pretend to be a witch, but also create friendships with other characters!
Ritual of Raven
This one is similar to Disney Dreamlight Valley, if you ever played you'll see that it has a similar structure but that's why I love this game. It's also whimsical and has charm.
Palia
A game where you play as a mailman in the 80's replacing your father at his job temporarily. It's cozy and has beautiful scenery that you can explore by driving around and delivering packages.
Lake
A cozy game where you can play as a witch and craft potions, while befriending people and discovering mysteries!
Little Witch in the Woods
Very fun and cozy game.
You play as a depressed, divorced duck and are trying to figure out who stole the salami from a workplace.
The second game is placed in a camping site where everything is supposedly haunted.
Duck Detective Series on Steam
A cozy game where you get to build your own town, expand and turn it into a city. It has great graphics and replayable gameplay. The game is relatively new so there's always something coming out but it's big enough to spend hours on it.
Town to City
You get to explore this very pretty botany while playing as a florist. You get to learn about many different types of plants and even little creatures like birds. The scenery is nice as well.
Botany Manor
In this game you get to unpack items and place them within the given room in which ever way you desire. The choices are all yours but there's still a story being told.
Unpacking
What a cute little game! It has mystery and charm, the graphics are good and the story is very fun.
Detective Grimoire: Secret Of The Swamp
Very charming game! Your job is to help the supermarket grow and uncover the towns secrets
Discounty
Perfect for autumn season, very cozy and relaxing. Your job is to collect leaves in someone's yard and if you love ASMR this is great for you.
Leaf it Alone
It's not just a super market sim, it's a cozy experience where you get to meet people in this story and relax.
