Quiet games for when you just want to switch off

Not every game needs to be a challenge. Sometimes you want something that asks nothing of you but a little attention, and the cozy corner of mobile gaming has grown wonderfully for that.

Lantern Coast is a perfect example. It's a gentle seaside adventure with soft music and logical little puzzles, and I played most of it in bed winding down. There's no fail state to stress about, just a nice place to be.

The trick with cozy games is pacing. The best ones give you small, satisfying moments of completion without ever rushing you. They're about mood as much as mechanics.

If your week has been loud, these are worth keeping installed. A quiet game at the end of the day does more than I expected.
