Allison from Controller Crusade writes: “In recent years, the “cozy indie game” genre has become a new titan in the games industry. These sweet, adorable RPG adventures thrive off their delightful storytelling, likable characters, and slow-natured pace. Compared to more popular games that feature high-energy battle royales and multiplayer shooter frenzies, games within this subgenre thrive on lowkey but immersive narration and appealing escapism. Garden Story, developed by Pictogram and published by Rose City Games, is another example of a game that checks off all the components of a “classic” cozy indie game. However, they still manage to include a few unique twists.”
