Hiya! 👋 I’m Chloe, and Welcome to The Pod

Your cozy space for calm, creative, and comforting games 💕

I’ve always been drawn to slower-paced, thoughtful games the kind that let you unwind, explore beautiful worlds, or simply switch your brain off after a long day. For me, cozy gaming isn’t just about what you play, it’s about how it makes you feel.

It’s about soothing your nervous system, finding small moments of joy, and giving yourself permission to slow down when life feels like a lot.

Why Cozy Games Matter to Me 💖

I live with stress, burnout, anxiety, and depression, and cozy games have become a genuine source of comfort in my life. They’re little safe spaces where I can rest, reset, and feel okay for a while.

If that resonates with you, you’re not alone. And you’re very welcome here. 💚

How I Play (and Where)

While I mostly play on Nintendo Switch, I also share cozy games for PC, Xbox Game Pass, and PlayStation. Cozy gaming isn’t tied to one platform. It’s about finding games that feel good to play, wherever you play them.

Why I Started PeaPodGirlGaming ✨

I started PeaPodGirlGaming to shine a light on cozy indie games that don’t always get the attention they deserve.

Here in The Pod, I share:

  • thoughtful, spoiler free cozy game reviews

  • curated cozy game lists by mood, genre, and platform

  • cozy gaming news and indie discoveries

  • gentle recommendations for relaxing, emotional, and creative games

I also give each game a cozy rating, so it’s easier to find something that fits how you’re feeling, whether you’re looking for comfort, distraction, or a quiet emotional release.

Who This Space Is For

If you’ve ever felt out of place in traditional “gamer” spaces, or if you’re looking for a softer, more inclusive way to enjoy games without pressure or expectations, this space is for you.

Whether you’re here to de-stress, find your next favourite cozy game, or just feel a little less alone, I’m really glad you found your way here. 🥰
