Came across this video critiquing the gameplay of some out of the sheer number of "cozy" games coming out recently.

Wondering what everyone's opinions are on cozy games. Do you feel the same or do you have differing opinions on them?

Probably the best cozy game that I've played in recent times has been Thank Goodness You're Here. It's an incredibly quirky and zany romp through a northern British town full of lively characters and great visuals. The soundtrack is honestly probably one of the best OSTs around in recent years, too. Your only controls are movement, jumping, and slapping things to interact with them.

The entire game can be finished in about 3-ish hours depending on how often you stop to just interact with the world. I honestly can't recommend the game enough, and I'm not even English.

Northern England, I think "Northern Britain" would just be Scotland

Oh no, I spaced out for 4 seconds. Have the British taken over the world?

Not recently...

Have a look at the game and you'll see we're not really capable of taking over anywhere anymore
