Teddy's Haven

Really great cozy game!. I love it when a dragon talks to me rather than trying to eat me lol.

This is the absolute best shop Sim ive ever played! I hope everyone enjoys the game just as much as I did, the demo is the best demo for a game ive ever tried too it really gets you get a feel for the game your buying!

This game is in my top 3 of games I have ever played. It is a nice one to not think too much. I struggle with my mental health. This game allows me to unwind and not think. There is enough variety to not be boring. You can get in the zone and just relax. I can not thank the developers enough for this game. 100/10!!!

Oh to be a little shopkeeper in a fantasy world....<3

I don't know how this game has/had overwhelmingly positive reviews. There are a few deal breaker flaws in my opinion that take it down a few points. NPC models: They are uninspired, as if taken straight out of World of Warcraft. For a single player game, that's pretty bad. Not to mention they clip over each other while looking at a shelf. Animations: Or rather a lack there of. Not much to say as there's not much to see other than walking animations. NPCs taking items from shelves is pretty basic too and they don't even reach what they are grabbing. Art: There's some incomplete objects/meshes it seems. Such as the castle, parts of it are floating and there are stairs missing. Interiors are also empty rooms. For a "Cozy" game, the above things matter a lot as the feel of a game such as this is what creates the vibe of "Cozy". This game feels a little bit like an asset flip (not to say it is, it's just a feeling), that doesn't mean the game is terrible; it's your typical shop simulator with a fantasy coat of paint. But I do wish that coat of paint was of better quality.

Intoxicatingly Charming. Endearing characters. Adventure out or stay home? It's yours to do as you please. A Magical Peaceful Haven.

I thought this would be a simple game I’d enjoy for a dozen hours before getting bored, but it ended up completely pulling me in. It’s incredibly immersive and cozy, and I’ve lost hours just hanging out in the world. The aesthetics are adorable, the decor is fantastic, and there’s so much customization to play around with. It’s been such a fun and relaxing experience, I’m totally loving it.

I've never written a review for a game in my life. Additionally, I almost entirely avoid most games in Early Access. Please bear that in mind, both in reading, and understanding how deeply compelled I am to both play and write a review for Teddy's Haven. When I came across this game, it was a hidden gem among cozy simulation games that called out in the loudest whisper to my soul with the sheer number of items and decorations. If you've made your way here, you might have a familiarity with cozy simulation games, how often even they have pressured cycles, how they can be demanding of planned customization from the start or have none, and what you *think* this game will generally be. Expectations be darned, Teddy's Haven leaves them in the dust. It holds true to being a peaceful place to do most anything your heart desires. And no annoying objective tracking pushing you to speed up in any direction. There are so many signs of love on the island of Ursa. You can be as slow or as fast as you'd like. Wanna meander around the island and tend the animals while gathering fruit? Go for it. Wanna fish? Do it, it's fun, and they have aquariums to either admire or sell your catches. Wanna turn your gathered fruit into jam or buzz? By all means. Wanna create pretty crystal things to go in your pretty apothecary and alchemy shop? You totally can and it makes me want those crystal displays for real as they are pretty and some could hold my rocks too. Wanna fly towards the giant gem in the sky that changes with the seasons until you can touch it so you can stare into the gorgeous, sparkly, solar abyss-like gem before you? You can, and I have. And if you want to keep to your shop and focus indoors, you are supplied with ample control over creating the space you want. One of my favorite things about the build of the day/night cycles is that it is not time driven. There's no set amount of time before the shop opens in the day, nor is there a set amount of time after it closes for the night. I love the beauty of the night while I'm fishing, and the vibrant colors of everything during the day. From the bottomless bag of holding and ample resources around if you desire, to the ability to place anything anywhere, they place cozy care of this entire paradise at your fingertips. If you venture around the island, you'll find hidden and rare creatures. Many will come bearing stories - breathing a little more life into the soul of Ursa. Recent updates just bring more and more color to your own haven, such as the Prismleaf collection. I'm so excited to see how decorations, designs, items, and areas grow with Teddy's Haven's development. I truly cannot say I dislike anything about this game. I thought there'd at least be something. A lot of games that call themselves cozy have something that eventually push me to restart or switch games because I'll learn something way late after following objectives that I didn't know I needed to compensate for. But not with Teddy's Haven. I find nothing like that in Teddy's Haven pushing me to restart to achieve, no unsatisfied customers, and no problems adjusting along the way. If I were to desire anything to improve the experience it might be for the sky to be reflected in the water, mostly at night. And maybe for a little more info to display when hovering or clicking items in the bottomless bag, such as what an item can be crafted into using x item and the known season collected. Or a collection book where we can see things those things and pictures, like blown up images of fish we've caught, and materials we've collected! The world is beautiful, down to the fruit it bears and crystals shining across the lands, and I think getting the opportunity to be immersed in that is so incredible. Don't hesitate to be apart of it if it calls to you too.

I love this game! Very cozy and cute. Nice way to just chill and unwind form the day.
