Hello, Cozy Gang!

Let’s Play the My Wife is a Spy?! Demo

Hello, Cozy Gang!

I edited and uploaded my playthrough of the My Wife is a Spy?! VOD to my Youtube channel! This video is from one of my gaming streams!

Life wasn’t easy with emotionally manipulative parents parents but Ava worked hard through school to get her dream job of a Business Analyst! She’s ready to work hard and get out of the abusive house! That plan is cut short as she finds herself in a deadly accident and transported to the world of a webcomic she has been reading! Now she’s in the body of Sofia, a noblewoman of the South who is betrothed to the cold Duke of the North, Zachary. If that wasn’t enough of a change, she is charge with the mission of spying on her new husband for her father and the Empire! She must choose to stay loyal to her father or support her new husband.

In this demo, the otome game establishes the harsh situations that the main character finds herself in with her verbally abusive families both in her former life and her new life as Sofia. We also get the chance to meet the handsome Zachary and a few of the other kind, cautious, and skeptical cast of the North. I am intrigued by this premise and want to learn more about the budding relationship of Sofia and Zachary. If you are interested, I recommend wishlisting the game to keep up with the updates!

Let’s Play Sips and Sonnets!

Hello, Cozy Gang!

I edited and uploaded my full playthrough of Sips and Sonnets VODs to my Youtube channel! This video is the combination of two streams of this delightful game.

In this visual novel, we take the role of the sweet, retired journalist named Ms. Meadows who runs a tea shop out of her house in a small English town. Many lovely patrons come to visit and share their stories as they sip the freshly made tea. At night we try to chat with the quiet nurse and write some stanzas of our poem. Pay special attention to what everyone is saying to you as you are expected to make choices based on your friends’ tales! There are some heavy themes about memory loss, getting older, and the sight of medical needles in this game so consider that if you pick up the game for yourself. The game is available on Steam so you can check it out for yourself!

Let’s Play In Stars and Time Together Part 2!

Hello, Cozy Gang!

I edited and uploaded my second In Stars and Time VOD to my Youtube channel! We continue our journey into the House to find more clues about the time Loops and the King. A lot of fun conversations ensue as we interact with everything and try to level up a bit.

This time-whimey RPG has really captured my attention and heart. I fell in love with Siffrin, Isabeau, Mirabelle, Odile, and Bonnie quickly. I love time loop games and RPGs plus the story is fascinating and full of feelings. There are some heavy themes and flashing lights in this game so consider that if you pick up the game for yourself. The game is available on Steam and the Nintendo eShop so you can check it out for yourself!
