10 Best Cozy Games That Aren’t About Farming
May 1, 2025
Cozy doesn’t have to mean farming sim.
Often, when you ask for cozy game recommendations, people are going to throw out farming sims like Stardew Valley. Planting and harvesting are often considered staples of the cozy game genre, but sometimes, you’re not in the mood for virtual crop management. Thankfully, there are plenty of wholesome, relaxing games that don’t demand you plow, sow, or harvest a single plant. From cooking games to visual novels to management sims, here are the best cozy games that aren’t about farming.
10. Witchy Life Story
Platform(s): Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam
Price: $19.99
If you like a visual novel with lighter gameplay elements, Witchy Life Story will deliver. In this game, you play as a young witch who’s been sent to a small town to help them with their local festival. You mix up potions and charms for the locals while getting to know them, and there’s even a light romance element as you decide who to take on the big festival date. There’s some light garden tending as you gather ingredients for your potions, but it’s point-and-click style, no rows of crops required.
Witchy Life Story is a relatively short game, but the different date options and choices give it some replayability. Still, I suggest snagging this one on sale.
