Hello, Cozy Gamer!


If you're reading this, you probably love gaming, but you also love everything to look nice, soft, cozy, and chill. You're not alone: cozy gaming is here to stay, and your console deserves that glow-up too 🌱 

If your perfect Christmas involves a Nintendo Switch, a ridiculous amount of blankets and the distant sound of someone else doing the dishes… same!!!! Here’s some games' recs so you can pick what to play depending on your mood this holiday season. Keep reading to know our picks! <3

❄️ Winter burrow:

You play as a tiny mouse returning to a childhood burrow that’s falling apart in the middle of a frozen forest. Your job? Fix up your little home, knit warm sweaters, bake pies and survive the winter while meeting other woodland neighbours... It’s like a gentle, emotional winter survival story that feels perfect for a quiet evening with a mug of cocoa 🥹

🧣 Röki

Röki is a wintery adventure set in a snowy wilderness inspired by Scandinavian folklore! You play as Tove, a girl searching for her brother while meeting creatures straight out of fairy tales and solving gentle puzzles along the way. It’s emotional, atmospheric and full of soft snow, quiet forests and big feelings – perfect for a slow, thoughtful Christmas night

🧤 Lake: Season's greeting

This is a Christmas prequel to Lake, set in 1985. You step into the shoes of Thomas, an almost-retired postman delivering mail in a small snowy town. You drive around, chat with neighbours, and slowly piece together the lives (and dramas) of Providence Oaks during the holidays <3 Very low-stress, very “small-town Christmas movie” energy (you'll LOVE IT!!!!)

🧦 Night in the Woods

This is a story-heavy adventure about Mae, who drops out of college and returns to her hometown. You wander around, talk to old friends, play mini-games and slowly uncover what’s really going on in the woods. It’s funny, melancholic and super relatable if you’ve ever felt a bit lost in your twenties!!!! (us every time) The autumn/winter atmosphere makes it a great pick for gloomy Christmas days 🎄

____________________________________________________________

so… what will you play first?

Whether you’re curled up with hot chocolate, listening to the rain (or snow) or basically living in bed all week, there’s something here for every type of cozy Christmas mood ❄️

Pick a game, grab your Switch, light some fairy lights and let your next cozy adventure begin. And of course: customize your life with cute wintery accessories! 🥹
