    The Ultimate Zen Space: Cozy Decorator ‘Hozy’ Launches on Steam with 250,000 Wishlists

    By Editorial Team2026년 03월 30일Updated:2026년 03월 31일3 Mins Read
    • The Vibe: A stress-free, physics-based room renovation sim with no timers, scores, or penalties.
    • The Pedigree: Developed by visual design experts at Come On Studio and published by tinyBuild.
    • The Sound: Features an atmospheric soundtrack by the composer of Stray and Seasons After Fall.
    • Launch: Available now on PC and Mac (Steam).

    Forget the hustle of the city and return to the quiet charm of your hometown. Come On Studio and tinyBuild have officially released Hozy, a room-decorating simulator that has captured the hearts of over 250,000 wishlist hopefuls. Designed to be a “digital deep breath,” Hozy trades high-stakes competition for the rhythmic satisfaction of cleaning, painting, and personalizing abandoned spaces.

    Tactile Cleaning, Boundless Creativity

    In Hozy, the journey begins with a mess. Players use a variety of tools—including mops, squeegees, and crowbars—to clear out the cobwebs of neglected rooms.

    • Physics-First: Every action feels intentional. Scraping off old paint or wiping a cloudy window to reveal the sunlight is handled with a satisfying physics engine.
    • The “No-Pressure” Rule: There are no “right” answers. You can arrange furniture, rotate trinkets, and hang paintings exactly how you want. Whether you’re a minimalist or a maximalist, the space is yours to define.
    • Liveable Stories: Explore 9 unique rooms, each belonging to a different neighbor with their own backstory, adding a layer of narrative warmth to your renovation efforts.

    A Visual and Auditory Masterpiece

    Given the developers’ background in graphic and web design, it’s no surprise that Hozy is being called one of the most beautiful games in its genre.

    “It might be the most visually striking cozy sim we’ve seen yet,” noted GameSpew, praising the game’s soft color palette and masterful lighting.

    The experience is further elevated by a melancholic yet comforting soundtrack. By enlisting the composer behind the hit game Stray, Come On Studio has ensured that the auditory environment is just as polished as the visual one.

    A New Standard for Cozy Sims

    With its successful debut at the Steam Next Fest behind it, Hozy is poised to become a staple for fans of titles like Unpacking and House Flipper. By stripping away the stress of resource management and focusing purely on the “joy of the process,” Come On Studio has created a sanctuary for players looking to unwind.
