For me, I have 100+ hours on Sims 3, Stardew Valley, Palia, Planet Zoo, Sims 4, and Animal Crossing.

  • Stardew Valley, Animal Crossing: NH, Core Keeper, Satisfactory, Dyson Sphere Program, Dragon Quest Builders 2. Highly recommend everything lol

    Yes!!! Dragon Quest Builders 2, I had so much fun with it!

    LOVE dragon quest builders 2. Still waiting for a game similar to it to fill the gap. Hoping pokemon pokepia is similar!

    We're never going to get a DQB3, are we? 😄

    I dont know!!!! I've never heard anything so I dont have high hopes. I never played the first one but I feel like it wouldnt make sense for me to go back after playing, and loving the 2nd

    i recently started playing ā€žfantasy life iā€œ and it gives off the same vibe :) highly recommend it

    I have it bought and downloaded!! I want to finish astrobot and pokemon za first

    Have you tried Lego Fortnite by any chance? It’s pretty good

    Check out Factorio — it’s… amazing.

  • Stardew, animal crossing, i was a teenage exocolonist

    I LOVE I was a teenage exocolonist. Such an emotional game. I'm so glad someone on this sub recommended it to me, I might have never found it otherwise!

    There are good games, there are bad games and then there is "I was a teenage exocolonist".

    Never before and after that game a game made me "feel" so much feelings. If I could wipe one game from my mind to play it again fresh without any knowledge it would be this game.

  • Sims 4, minecraft, stardew, echoes of the plum grove, planet zoo, lets build a zoo, animal crossing new horizons life is Strange somehow

    Ngl I'm impressed by Life is Strange šŸ˜‚

    I have no idea how i did it

    I do know it was my only game for awhile so mightve just been playing it over and over

  • Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Coral Island. Planet Crafter. Powerwash Simulator. Spirit City: Lofi Sessions. My Time at Sandrock. Megaquarium. Rusty's Retirement. Two Point Campus. Squeakross: Home Squeak Home. Changeling. Cozy Grove. Also, The Sims 4, though I haven't played that one in years.

    Squeakross is amazing!

    Yes. Cozy Grove!

    Wait, there’s 100+ hours worth of puzzles in Squeakross? I only started recently ish and I’m still in the first catalog

  • Travelers rest and medieval dynasty .. I love me some medieval vibes lol

  • I have something gross like 2k hours on Stardew Valley. Somewhat out of the norm for this sub, I also have several hundred hours on most iterations of ā€œOut of the Park Baseballā€. It is a Baseball management sim that lets you play as the GM and/or manager for your favorite team. In addition to all the trading, roster construction, and statistical analysis, it also will sim actual games. I will often ā€œput on a gameā€ and let it auto play while I am doing other things like watching tv.

  • I have 600+ hours on Animal Parade last I checked

    Stardew Valley, Moonstone Island, Graveyard Keeper, Backpack Battles (I know it’s called ā€œbattles,ā€ but it’s very relaxing and cozy to me).

    Not at 100+ yet, but will get there this year:

    Calico, Tavern Keeper, Winkeltje (sp)?

  • Field of mysteria, my time at sandrock, fantasy life

    I also have over 100 hours in Fields of Mistria, which is amazing for an EA game. Can't wait for full release this year!

  • Farm Together

    Farm Together 2

    Palia

    Littlewood

    I only started playing a couple weeks ago and I'm quickly approaching 100 hours in Farm Together, help šŸ˜‚

    Farm Together is soooo underrated and addicting!!

    it really is, the art design and the animations combine to make it so satisfying when playing on top of the cozy factor. It has enough of a game loop to keep you going while also allowing a ton of freedom. I really can not get enough of it.

  • Only a few really. Slime rancher was the first game i put 100+ hours in, i think. Sims 4, Ring of Pain, Stardew Valley, ACNH, Dreamlight Valley, and Pokemon Scarlet and Shield. Might be missing some but those are the notable ones.

    I'm surprised how far i had to scroll to see a mention of Slime Rancher.

  • ACNH, Wingspan, House Flipper, Dreamlight Valley, Slay the Spire.

  • Stardew Valley and Graveyard keeper (I take my sweet time playing both games, hate rushing)

  • My Time at Portia

    Stardew Valley

    Fortnite

  • Skyrim and ACNHĀ 

    Same for Skyrim

  • 4000+ - Stardew Valley

    3000+ - Animal Crossing: New Horizons

    2000+ - My Time at Sandrock - Dragon Quest Builders 2 - Coral Island

    1000+ - Dragon Quest Builders - Pokemon Sword

    500+ - My Time at Portia - Sun Haven

    200+ - Disney Dreamlight Valley

    100+ - Wylde Flowers - Fields of Mistria - My Time at Evershine (alpha access)

    Omg how is evershine!!!!! I can’t wait

    It’s wonderful!

  • I only have around 27 hours in Coral Island but considering I just started playing maybe 2 weeks ago I have no doubt I will hit 100+ lol

    im the same situation

    buyed in the winter sale and get hooked in the game

    Me too!! So many hours in the game already and I just bought it lol

    People play it so differently. I've read it can be finished ---In a month or so, I've put in over 150 hours. I'm in Year 3, and there's so much to do and so much I haven't done. I think in 150+ hours, I'm probably less than a quarter done. But some people who have less time in the game than I have gotten married, etc. (I've done nothing with the relationship aspect so far.

  • For traditional cozy games: Animal Crossing, Dinkum, Kynseed, My Time at Sandrock, Stardew, Travellers Rest

    Others: Satisfactory, Planet Crafter, Timberborn, Rimworld, Prison Architect, Whiskerwood.

  • All of the Animal Crossing entries. By far my favourite series.

  • Animal Crossing NH, Anno 1800 (700+), Xenoblade chronicles 1/2/3, older 3ds PokĆ©mon games, Banished, Stardew valley, Story of seasons Trio of towns (3ds), Story of seasons (3ds), Harvest moon A new beginning (3ds), Anno 1404 and a bunch of mmo's where I easily got over 200 hours.

    Probably some more 3ds rpgs, however I can't remember them all. I loved my 3ds so much back then.

  • Cult of the Lamb

    I was a Teenage Exocolonist

    Graveyard Keeper

    Terraformers

    Don't Starve

  • I have 200+ in Stardew Valley and 2000+ in FFXIV. I just started playing Palia and I know I will definitely surpass 100+ in that one very soon.

    I’ve never played any FF games. Any tips or recommendations on where to start for someone interested?

    FFXIV is the MMO. Older games were turn-based, newer games are action.

    The MMO can be played like a single-player game and is free to play up to a certain point (you could spend hundreds of hours playing free). I love it because you can fish, craft, decorate a home, and collect cool outfits and cute mounts to ride around on or little minions to follow you around.

    I loved the story and characters in 7, but it’s very blocky and outdated now. I’ve tried twice to play the remake but the newer games just aren’t fun to me. 10 was good. 9 was pretty good. Didn’t like 12. Didn’t even make it past 5 hours in 15. It’s all personal preference, but 14 (the MMO) is my favorite game of all time. I don’t love the story but I’ve been playing without losing interest for over 10 years.

    Playing it for 10yrs?! Wow! I’ll definitely have to look into it. The MMO I saw on Steam was $20, so maybe I didn’t see the right one. I’m gonna look again especially since it’s free! Can’t hurt to try!

    Is it controller friendly by chance?

    So the game itself is not free, they were referring to the square enix subscription needed to play, but you do get to play a good amount before needing to pay. I pay about $80 for 180 days. Now that I play less, I don't leave it continuous, just pay when I know I will play for a bit. My main gripe about the game is that it can get frustrating at times, especially with hard bosses with complicated mechanics (I am really bad at picking up on mechanics!) It's not a "cozy" game per say, but there is a ton to do and crafting and foraging is fun and cozy-esque. I use a PS5 controller and play on PC.

    Ooo ok, this is very good info, thanks!

    Love FFXIV! So great and an investment. Also much to do.

  • Palia, Disney Dreamlight Valley, Animal Crossing, The Sims 4. (Also Sea of Thieves but that's not very cosy!)

  • My time at Sandrock (and Portia), Fields of Mistria, Coral island, Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar.

  • Coral island & fields of mistria

    It's against my religion to pay for early access games, but all the good things I've heard about Mistria has me rethinking that policy...

    Hey, is Coral Island "done" yet, or is it still being worked on? I'm tempted to check that one out.

    It’s been done for a bit I believe. I have about 120 hrs on it so far and it’s really fun; very similar to Stardew Valley with diff vibes.

  • Fantasy Life (200+), Sims 4 (500 ish hours i think), Stardew Valley (200 +), Animal Crossing New Horizon (600~). Also Minecraft, but it can get Not so cozy sometimes (looking at you, Enderman.. in fact no 🤣)

  • Stardew Valley. And if we count all versions of Mineral Town/Back To Nature, then almost definately that as well.

  • Animal crossing New Horizons, Sun haven, Disney Dreamlight Valley, Ark Survival Evolved, Wurm unlimited, Moonstone island, Farm together 2, Coral Island, Archeage and My time at Portia.

  • Stardew, Balatro, ACNH, Risk of Rain 1, LOZ BOTW

    Unverifiable but likely: Pokemon gens 1&2

  • ACNH is my top played game, with 550 hours.

    Then BOTW, TOTK and Hello Kitty Island Adventure well above 200 hours.

  • Sims 4, ACNH, Fae Farm, Coral Island, Disney Dreamlight Valley and Harvest Moon

  • Dreamlight Valley & Jurassic World Evo 2 (recently got 3, which is also fun)

  • Stardew (3000+), Balatro, Ball x Pit, Sun Haven, Valheim, Fields of Mistria, Slay the Spire, Monster Train, Roots of Pacha, Rune Factory 4, Octopath Traveler I.

    And definitely others, but neither Switch nor DS has an easy way to see hours played.

  • Animal Crossing, Coral Island, My Time at Sandrock, Fantasy Life i and Disney Dreamlight Valley for me!

  • Animal crossing new horizons, slay the spire, balatro, stardew valleyĀ 

  • Pretty much every major single player rpg in the last 10-15 years

    Also classics like sims, pokemon, Minecraft, animal crossing have more like 3-500 each

  • Stardew valley and now littlewood. Here for ideas

  • Stardew Valley, Moonstone Island, Graveyard Keeper, Backpack Battles (I know it’s called ā€œbattles,ā€ but it’s very relaxing and cozy to me).

    Not at 100+ yet, but will get there this year:

    Calico, Tavern Keeper, Winkeltje (sp)?

  • Every sims game, Palia, Fantasy Life i

  • Animal Crossing and Dreamlight Valley. If there was a way to merge these games into one, I’d be gaming 24/7.

  • Animal Crossing, Dreamlight Valley, the Sims 4, and Minecraft

  • I have over 1,000 hours in Palia and 600 in my time at sandrock.

  • Stardew Valley and most recently My Time at Portia (140 hr).

    Can already tell Sandrock is going to surpass that.Ā Pathea are insanely good at this.

  • Where winds meet, infinity nikki, division 2, stardew valley, palia are the ones that come to my mind rn

  • Sims (all 4 versions) PowerWash Simulator Disneys Dreamlight Valley

  • I have 1000 hours each in Palia, Sandrock, and Animal Crossing. Going to have 100 in Coral Island soon, but I just barely started getting into it. The cozy game escapism is real :')

  • stardew valley, minecraft, tiny bookshop

  • Parkitect, Planet Zoo, Planet Coaster, Sims 2/3/4. I like building stuff.

  • One that isn't super common that I adore is Portal Knights! It's such a fun and cute game. I wish it were more popular, it certainly deserves it!

    Agree. One on the best games in my opinion. Spent tons of hours on that one.

    I always wished Minecraft had some sort of story or quests. This seems to be the closest thing to it. Along with Dragon Quest Builders 2! (I recommend it, if you haven't played it.)

    Thanks. I want to play dragon quest builders 2 soon. Looks like a great fit for me. I was not 100% sure on DQB2 since I heard a lot of story screens in it. I will for sure try it now.

    The story is quite long, and unfortunately you can't play multiplayer until you're done with it, which did make sense in the end when I was done playing it. But yeah. It's an adorable game and you can build some pretty epic stuff!!

  • No Man's Sky.Ā  Currently at about 2400 hours...dont know if I should be proud or ashamed...

  • Hardspace Shipbreaker. It’s a work sim about dismantling spaceships. Really chill to play while you listen to podcasts

  • Stardew Valley, Disney dream light valley, animal crossing NH, coral island, satisfactory and supermarket simulator. I love Organizing

  • Sims4, SOS Friends of Mineral Town, SOS Grand Bazaar, The Oregon Trail and PokĆ©mon Sword.

  • Animal crossing, breath of the wild, and tears of the kingdom. I plan on playing these three even more this year so it’ll be a ton of hours by then.

  • Stardew Valley, Sims 4, Book of Hours!

  • Stardew Valley, Fields of Mistria, Alpaca Rancher, Terraria, and Don't Starve Together

  • Sims (all of them), Stardew, Animql Crossing (all of them), My Time at Sandrock, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Story of Seasons (Friends of Mineral Town and A Wonderful Life), and Rune Factory (4 and Guardians of Azuma)

  • My time at sandrock, the sims 3, stardew valley. The Sims is probably in the 1000s tbh, but the whole Origins vs steam vs EA thing makes my hour count so confusing. I bought the sims 3 back when it was on CDs.

  • Stardew Valley (1000+) Roots of Pacha, Terraria, and Civilization V.

  • Dinkum šŸ’•

  • Disney Dreamlight Valley (500+)

  • Cozy Grove - perhaps a little ironic because while you keep collecting fishes and shells etc , the daily gameplay takes an hour but it’s just so cute and funny and heartwarming. I keep going back to do daily tasks no matter how mundane or repetitive

  • Stardew, ACNH, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

  • Sims 2. Over 1000 hours, but not on a single platform or method so I can’t prove it.

  • Stardew valley, animal crossing wild world, harvest moon ds cute, the sims (one), Spiritfarer (hundreds of hours mostly because I also just left it on in the background since my baby liked napping to the audio lol).

  • Stardew Valley, Harvest Town (Mobile game)

  • Over 2 thousand hours on: Skyrim, Animal Crossing New Horizons, and the Sims 4 (before the buyout)

  • Kingdom: Two Crowns, Powerwash Simulator, Skyrim, Terraria

  • 150+ on powerwash sim šŸ˜Ž

  • Started, Sims, the My Time games and not a cozy game but recently Bejeweled. Used to play like 40 years ago and bought it on impulse for .99.

  • Animal Crossing: New Leaf, easy. Honestly I probably have thousands of hours in that one.

  • Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Hello Kitty Island Adventure, House Flipper 2, Bongo Cat (hehe) and almost 100 on Powerwash Simulator - easily over if you add Powerwash Simulator 2 hours!

  • cult of the lamb, hello kitty island adventure and Disney dreamlight valley

  • Infinity Nikki, My Time at Sandrock, Animal Crossing New Horizons, and Stardew Valley. Coral Island will likely get there soon!

  • Stardew Valley

    Fields of Mistria

    Roots of Pacha

    Minecraft

    maybe Pokemon Scarlet too over the course of multiple saves haha

  • Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Stardew Valley, Disney Dreamlight Valley, The Sims 4

    These are just current games. This applies to any installment of Animal Crossing, and OG Harvest Moon games. (Especially A Wonderful Life, Tree of Tranquility and Animal Parade)

  • Elite dangerous

  • I have over 10k+ hours in Sims, 4k hours in Minecraft, 3k hours in Animal Crossing, 1k in Planet Zoo, an unknown thousands of hours in zoo tycoon 1/2.

    And honestly, Sims that’s just recently. Before hours were even documented I literally lived on Sims 1/2/3 for my entire childhood. Full time job worth. Where I’d go to school, come home, game until bed, repeat.

  • Don't starve, animal crossing, dome keeper, slime rancher

  • Two point hospital!

  • I cant believe Im admitting this, but 2k+ on Dreamlight Valley, 1500+ on Animal Crossing, 200+ on Minecraft. I've had Town to City for a few days and I'm over 30 hours.

  • Fields of Mistria— if youre only counting cozy games. (Unless Skyrim counts, LOL)

  • The sims 3, animal crossing, Stardew Valley

  • Valheim. I highly recommend Valheim.

  • sims 4 & animal crossing

  • Animal Crossing NH.

  • Surpassed 200 hours in Coral Island. The one and only

  • Stardew valley, animal crossing

  • Stardew Valley around 350 hours, Fields of Mistria 100+ hours, Euro and American Truck Simulator combined 300+ hours.

  • The Sims 2, 3, 4

  • Palia 1000+ Animal Crossing 1000+ Coral Island 200+ My Time at Sandrock 100+ Hello Kitty Island Adventure 100+

    This is just the cosy genre.

  • Surviving mars

  • sims 3 and 4, life is strange 1 and 2, animal crossing, stardew, i was a teenage exocolonist

  • Keeping it to just the cozier games, there's Animal Crossing (New Leaf and New Horizons), Sims 3, Puyo Puyo Tetris, and probably Minecraft across all the platforms I've played it on. Nintendogs is another game I spent a ton of time on, though that's before game consoles kept track of that sort of thing, and also across several versions, so I couldn't quite verify that.

    And I also managed to get 40 hours into Squeakross despite only buying it two and a half months ago, so, uh... check back with me once I've reached the half-a-year mark, I imagine it'll have joined the 100+ hour club.

  • Cities Skylines, Sims 4, Bongo Cat, Forza Horizon 5, Stardew Valley, Disney Dreamlight Valley, Fields of Mistria, and Palia(I used to play Palia lots in 2024).

    The games I play the most are: Cities Skylines, Sims 4, Stardew Valley, Forza Horizon 5, Disney Dreamlight Valley, Bongo Cat, and Fields of Mistria.

    Waterpark Simulator I have 70 hours in, and Spirit City Lofi Sessions i have 75 hours in, but they will get to 100 soon.

  • All of the Cook Serve Delicious games

  • I’m not sure if it counts as a cozy game but it’s casual and I find it somewhat relaxing (although stress at times as well lo) it’s the new skate game

  • Sims 2 and Sims 4

  • Powerwash simulator 1 and Palia. Getting up there on powerwash sim 2 :)

  • Palia (475), Disney Dreamlight Valley (341), Sun Haven (248), SDV (217), My Time At Sandrock (180), FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time (204), My Time At Portia (119).

    Almost not quite 100 each in Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar (94), Fae Farm (94) and Coral Island as well (92).

    I like games with quests, tasks, story, trees/skills/things to level up/expand/upgrade/etc, collectathons, direction, and a consistent sense of progression.

  • Stardew valley, animal crossing, my time at sandrock and story of seasons grand bazaar! Coral island and Fields of Mistria were close though ;;

    I’m sure I’ll get more on Mistria as it has more updates to come and I adore it ā¤ļø

  • Dredge. I didn't need 100+ hours, I just keep replaying it. Do the whole thing with no DLCs. Do the whole thing and do Iron Rig first instead of last. See how far you can get without upgrading your engine. Skip over Gale Cliffs.

  • The sims

  • Tbh I tend to move on from games pretty quick so I think the only one I really have crazy hours on is Animal Crossing. Maybe also various rhythm games I like too when you add it all up?

  • Factorio and Oxygen not included for me

  • DDV, Sims, WoW (but quit playing a really long time ago)

  • 1,235 hours on ACNH. 795 hours on Hello Kitty Island Adventure, 690 on Stardew Valley, 355 on Zelda BOTW and 490 on Zelda TOTK

  • Stardew Valley, Slay the Spire, Animal Crossing, Dave the Diver

  • Animal crossing mostly New Leaf and New Horizons, Sims across all games from childhood to now but I haven't played on a while and stardew valley! I have many that are close to 100 but these are the top 3 over.

  • Pokemon scarlet , go vacation, and inazuma eleven

  • Sims 3&4, simcity, before we leave, animal crossing and manor lords with all the military parts turned off so essentially making it a town builder.

  • Sims 2, Civilization 2/4/5 (for me these are cozy games 😁), Star Ores Inc., Project Hospital, Stardew Valley

  • Hello Kitty Island Adventure, Strange Horticulture (I’ve completed every ending), Tiny Glade, Sims 4 (but I’ve been playing that since it came out and I have legitimately 6 years and 4 days of play in it, my actual hour count is 52,000+), Two Point Museum, Stardew Valley, ACNH, Dreamlight Valley.
