The last few years have brought a barrage of “cozy games,” video games expressly designed to generate good vibes. That said, coziness isn’t a virtue in and of itself. If you’re looking for games to help you wind down, allow us to help. We’ve curated a selection of our favorite chill titles, ones that purposefully deemphasize fail states, grinding, intense violence and other aggressive urges, but aren’t insufferably twee, dull or same-y. Yes, these include the Stardew Valleys and Animal Crossings of the world, but we’ve also highlighted a number of lesser-known gems that span across genres. Here’s a few of the best relaxing games for your Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox, PC or mobile device.
