Its nice to be cozy. Im a huge fan of being wrapped up in a big blanket, sipping hot chocolate, and leisurely walks under colorful autumn trees. Cozy games are also great, and theyre an increasingly popular genre. While Ive spent hours preparing the perfect farm in Stardew Valley or exploring Bahari Bay in Palia, it can be fun to subvert the genre and play a cozy game with a twist on the formula.These games are still cozy, but theres something else added to make things a little uncomfortable, uneasy, or unpredictable. These games might have a greater message or a threat hidden amid its soothing, comfy vibes. A garnish of anxiety, fear, or danger can elevate the rest of the games cozy elements, making for a great experience all the way through.
