I'm gonna say something controversial yet brave, I hope 2024 turns cozy games more towards unique things, like season: a letter to the future, jusant, spiritfarer. The farm sim is tired, she has chronic fatigue, let's give her some rest for 2024!

Can I just say you are one of the best actual descriptive creator I’ve watched, idk if it’s just me but I feel like a lot of creators just talk about how much they love the game and never really about the game. So thank you, you can tell you put in hard work in your videos :)

[AyChristeneGames]

I’m absolutely obsessed with Dave the diver. I started playing before Christmas and I cannot put it down

[TheFairytaleLifestyle]

Love love love the ease of this list! I was just telling my partner I usually avoid list recs because I find a lot of creators just talk about how much they loved it and not what to expect with the game itself. I appreciate you gave us the perfect blend of your thoughts and experience and the facts! Your little game cards were so helpful because I often write down recs to find out I don't have the right platform.

The way you were so spot on about Dreamlight valley, I’m new to switch, I got mine back in the beginning of 2023 and the way I felt so exhausted playing DDV, i took a few months off from playing my switch because of it.

So glad you mentioned Venba, it was truly so touching and the perfect cozy amount of challenge and puzzle. Love when I have to think but not struggle!

[BirdsBeautyNest]

When I stumbled upon your channel, you inspired me to get my cozy life together. Thanks for sharing with us.

literally had the worst day at work, but this is such a pick me up!! feels like I got to chat with a friend about games for a while ❤ I am just absolutely obsessed with your videos right now! Thank you for all you do!

[Jalugi]

When you mentioned Tchia and the soul jumping I immediately thought of "Lost Ember, " which is a game I backed on Kickstarter a decade ago with a very similar mechanic. If you've never heard of it, I would highly recommend it; the soul jumping between animals is very fun and it has a beautifully touching narrative too!

Kennedy! I would love to see a Let's Play of you trying out a Nancy Drew PC game. Not just anyone, though! I think specifically for you, I would recommend Warnings at Waverly Academy, Danger on Deception Island, or Last Train to Bluemoon Canyon as a first game. HER Interactive is releasing a new game, hopefully soon! Love your content :)

[kimmeekarmaVODs]

I'm a Zelda girly and I like opening the map up first and doing side quests hahah. BUT! I'll definitely get to the main story. BOTW and TOTK open up the world to play Zelda the way YOU want to play it! Without judgement 😊

[sarahc]

Genuinely get happy whenever ken posts😌

[LivNLiterature]

DDV is one of my absolute favorite games, I have never paid real money (other than the actual game itself) & I’ve had it well before recently during its first stages and seeing it develop into what it is today with all the new realms, the dream snaps and the DLC it’s a phenomenal game in my opinion. There is a crazy amount of things to do, so many biomes, so many things to collect, so many quests and relationships to form. I think the creators of this game have worked so hard to make this a game to be loved by many, while I can agree with some controversy, I as a whole personally believe it’s great, I’m addicted. Lol… I’d give it a shot for what it is now.

[xoxoxlittlej]

I was so shocked you put Dreamlight Valley in the worst category. But I'm a new gamer and just got my switch in October and it's currently the only game I have for that console. So for me I guess it makes sense. I never buy the moonstones 😅 I definitely want to check out Palia since you mentioned that it's free. Love your videos - gaming and cozy hobbies. Makes me so relaxed and inspired.

[freddieverbaan]

Hello kitty island quickly became my favorite game of all time. After 1 month playing i also had less attention for it but now i am playing it everyday and loving the quests and the events. I really playing this game like a 100 hours.

[greenteawhoney]

I literally bought a ds and style savvy on ebay because i was so sad about fashion dreamer and needed to feel something and i absolutely recommend playing SS again if you can because it reminded me how much i loved it and how much i want something truly equivalent to it on the switch:(

[ceegee]

New saying of my 2023? "I'm ten toes down!" Thanks for so much wonderful content, I am so happy I discovered your channel this year.

[NicoleThorsenbooklovingfool]

I'm sad that you stopped with DDV - I really love it, but I've been slowly playing through it and I genuinely love the Jafar Time plot. I can't wait for more of it and more extensions of the Valley. I don't care about Dream Snaps or the Star Path though. I try to get enough moonstones for the things that pop up that I genuinely gasp over, but mostly I just like doing the fun things and playing Scramblecoin. :)

I did write down your best games and started playing Palia which definitely has the same vibes and mechanics!! And since it's free I'm recommending it to those that don't want to pay the Dreamlight price point.

Thanks for the video!

[rosetopginger]

I have been watching your videos and content for a while now and I love how homey, cozy, and relaxing your content is! Your recommendations always feel so genuine and as a cozy gamer, crafter, and work hard play hard girly I am so happy to see this list! With the winter sales going on right now I'm happy to have some direction with which games I should spring for or leave for another time ❤ I love your content and I'm always so excited to see when your videos upload!
