    I’d really recommend coffee talk! It’s such a chill game with lo-fi music. You’re a barista and you listen to customer’s stories while making coffee drinks that they like. Everything about the game relaxes me so much.

    I recommend Cattails! It's similar to Stardew Valley. You play as a stray cat who was abandoned, and basically learns to survive in the wild with other strays. It's very fun and chill, and if you like cats, I suggest at least checking it out. The game isn't getting much attention as of late.

    I also recommend Sky: Children of the Light! It's originally a game on mobile but it recently got added to the switch list !
    It's totally free to play (all the in app purchase are purely for cosmetics) and I really like it.
    I think that the best parts of the game are exploring and all of the interactions between players.
    Well, it's at least my opinion ^^

It’s about a young girl who befriends a bunch of mythical creatures on her way to rescue her little brother!

I love love love Spiritfarer and Stardew (have played on PC) and it's so exciting seeing someone clearly so passionate and genuinely interested in cozy games. I, like you, didn't get into video games for a long time because I had this misconception of it being all very high action oriented. Discovering Stardew opened up my world and I am so excited to expand it even further when I get my switch. There isn't anything I love more than getting cozy with something like Stardew and a mug of tea after a long day of work. Thanks for the video!

You play as a little bird who is visiting his aunt and is trying to get service to call home by heading to the top of a mountain. There are all these little adventures to do on your way, and the ending made me so happy sad. I haven’t played in a little bit, so if I got any details wrong let me know. 😊

    Abzu is an incredibly beautiful game especially if you love aquatic scenery. It has puzzles laced throughout the storyline but the graphics and scenery is 100% what makes the game so amazing and are what the game is focused on! The controls on the switch are a bit iffy and it’s easier to navigate on the PS4 and Xbox but it’s so worth it if you want a breathtakingly beautiful game you can relax to and explore

And, yes, it’s free, not even pay-to-play. I have recommended it to several friends and they all fell in love and play it all the time. Just do yourself a favor and look at a video of the gameplay.

    I’d definitely recommend A Short Hike, it’s a cute little game where you play as a bird named Clair who’s out on a trip with her aunt. You get to explore the area, your goal is to gather enough gold feathers to reach the top of the mountain, gold feathers basically let you fly for longer/jump more. I absolutely love this game, there’s a few side things you can do too, you can fish, race with npcs, help npcs solve their problems, and even rent a boat. Also the soundtrack is really nice, it’s a simple game with easy mechanics but it’s super fun and relaxing.

    Forgotten Anne, it’s a story based puzzle adventure game with some (light) platforming. The art style is stunning ! I highly recommend it, especially if you’re a studio Ghibli fan 😍.
    Fire watch. You play a man who decides to change his life and becomes a park ranger during the summer. Through walkie talkie, you see his relationship with his colleague evolve while mysterious things are happening 👀. Your choices matter 👌.
    One of the few game that made me feel extremely attached to the characters because of the excellent writing and voice-acting.
