Alright, here goes nothing. Let’s dive into Cozy Stitch Puzzle, shall we? So, I stumbled on this quirky little game from RedDeerGames — never heard of them, but who cares? The point is, it’s got these colorful figures you complete, which oddly enough, feels like stitching… I guess? There’s something like 126 puzzles — or was it 127? Anyway, they split ’em up into 9 categories with some truly wild names: Home Huggers and Barnyard Buddies, for instance. Who comes up with this stuff?
Switching gears… they’ve got these settings, right? You can go for Cozy, Medium, or Hard. Cozy’s got 3-5 pieces. Super chill. Medium bumps it to, like, 10-25 pieces. Hard mode? It’s 20-26 pieces — which doesn’t sound wildly different, but maybe there’s more to it. Oh, and it’s all procedurally generated. So, you think you’ve nailed it, and bam, it’s different next time. Keeps you guessing, y’know?
Okay, quick digression — so you’re mucking about with the Nintendo Switch, using the Joy-Con. It’s a bit of a dance: cursor moves with the left stick, ZL and ZR handle the piece rotation. Still trying to decide if that’s intuitive or if I just have a knack for overthinking. If you’re on the go? Go Portable Mode or even Tabletop. I mean, why not play however you want?
Now, let’s loop back… or maybe forward? After all that, it’s just a fun little puzzler at a sweet price of $6.99. For perspective, that’s like, one fancy coffee. Anyway, the visuals — vivid, colorful, like a bunch of crayons decided to throw a party and forgot to clean up. It won’t break the bank, but it’s a neat little distraction on the Switch.
Oh, and before I forget — because I nearly did — RedDeerGames sent a copy to review. Shout out to them for the freebie. Whether you’re diving in for the casual vibe or just curious about ‘Exotic Critter Crew’ (seriously, what?), it’s worth a shot. Was there something else? Probably, but you get the gist.
