Cozy games for winding down at night

Not every session needs a boss fight. Some nights I just want something gentle before sleep, and mobile is full of quiet little games built for exactly that.

Lantern Hollow is the current king of my bedtime rotation. No timers, no failure states, just a soft story you unspool at your own pace. It's the digital equivalent of a warm drink.

The common thread with cozy games is that they never punish you for stopping. You can put the phone down mid-scene and lose nothing, which is oddly rare.

Keep one or two of these installed for the evenings when the last thing you want is stress. Your brain will thank you.
