A new month means new games! So, we put together a list of 17 new games that we think are worth your time and attention. 🎮❤️ youtu.be/L6Ui0FgMwBM

We took a first look at the demo for The Edge of Water by @bigmoodgames.bsky.social🐬 The concept of being a human cast out of the waters by the life-giving ocean spirit, Su, and being forced to live on the water's surface, was more than enough to draw us into this one.

After buying and beating all available content in Alabaster Dawn, I can soundly say I'd recommend it to anyone who loves action RPGs, gorgeous pixel art, a thoughtfully well-written story with some great humor baked in, and a world that will continue to challenge your intellect in new ways.

Better late than never, as they say! Our May release list is done, and WOW, there are a lot of amazing games coming this month! From fast cars, to gorgeous pixel RPGs, some sleuthy spy action, and of course your cozy and casual titles too ❤️ 🔗 youtu.be/owfqrfKDnEw

We finally got some time to take a first look at the @loftia.bsky.social beta and are honestly really excited by what we see! Sure, there are a few rough edges to work out, but we're still curious enough to be playing more, so that's a good sign!😁💕 #Loftia #CozyGames

With all the hype around Windrose, we had to check it out for ourselves and see if it lived up to the praise it's received! So, let's put it to a 2-hour test and see if it's worth your time and hard-earned coin 🏴‍☠️🪙👇

With the announcement of Graveyard Keeper 2, we figured it was due time to properly play through the first one and see what all the buzz is about 🪦🦇 Tonight's stream is dedicated to being morally questionable at best 😁🖤

"What're you doing tonight?" Me:

We're riding into the wilds tonight with The Legend of Khiimori! I've been really wanting to take a look at this one for over a year now, so we're going to take a short break from SSI and adventure through 13th-century Mongolia! Thanks, Aesir Interactive, for the opportunity!

We've been so excited to dive back into the world and explore with Lana and Mui, so now that the time has finally come, we're over the moon! Tonight's stream is dedicated to this gorgeous game ❤️ A huge thanks to Thunderful Publishing for gracing us with a key 💕

After MUCH deliberation on whether or not Derek and I should have a second channel for our Action/Adventure content, and have 'The Pillow Fort' reserved for our more casual/cozy content, we've decided to pull the trigger and split the two. Want to check it out? ⤵️ www.youtube.com/@theadventur...

We're finally feeling well enough to stream again, and what better way to come back than with one of our favorite cozy games ❤️ Time to do some adventuring, adopt a few adorable critters, and explore deeper into the Moonlit Forest! ✨

I actually had a blast with Under the Island by @slimekinggames.bsky.social 🏒 If you're a fan of pixel-adventure RPGs like the old Zelda games, then this one will scratch the nostalgia itch and provide a plethora of fun puzzles, memey monsters, and a clever story. Video in the 💬

We've put in a couple of hours offline with this one, but I think tonight it's time we share the experience with you! Feel free to pop by over the next two hours to see what this one's all about ⚔️❤️

Derek and I (Lil) have put a ton of thought into where we see TPF in 3-5 years, and after much deliberation, we've decided to make some big changes. We've included all these updates in an article to make it a bit easier to digest 💕Ty for understanding! www.the-pillow-fort.com/post/tpf-feb...

A huge thanks to the @loftia.bsky.social team for allowing us to be part of the #LoftiaPartnerProgram 🥹💕🫶 We've been dreaming about this one for so long now!

To say we've enjoyed this one would be putting it mildly. Ducky is intent on chasing the World Record for Free Solo in Cairn and held it for a good 12 hours.🏔️ Needless to say, he's back at it again.😂 Thanks again @thegamebakers.com for this fantastic game! youtu.be/9CyLSG_Y8MI

You'd be hard-pressed to find such a unique and exciting experience as Cairn by @thegamebakers.com 🏔️ It truly captures what mountain climbers experience, and that's why tonight, we're going into free solo mode to see how far we can make it up the mountain💪 youtube.com/live/ACbilbr...

Tonight, we're saving fairytales from corporate greed in Escape From Ever After🪄 Let's see how far we can help Flynn and Tinder get tonight! A huge thanks to Hype Train Digital for allowing us to take a peek!

Stardew Valley and Diablo aren't two games you'd inherently think of to combine, but Cygnus Cross is pushing the realm of what defines a genre with @emberville.bsky.social ⚔️ www.the-pillow-fort.com/post/embervi...

The social deduction genre has only grown in scope since the rise of titles like Among Us and Town of Salem, and now DMT Games is here to share their fluffy take on it as well 🐾🔎 Article by @tpfdarling.bsky.social www.the-pillow-fort.com/post/meowste...

Stick A Round is a game that brings the nostalgia of childhood to life. Who doesn't remember the joy of wandering outdoors, searching for the coolest sticks? 🌲 Article by the lovely @leekscosycorner.com www.the-pillow-fort.com/post/stick-a...

If you're into casual turn-based RPGs with fun stories and a good sense of humor, then you HAVE to check out Escape from Ever After! 🪄⚔️ www.the-pillow-fort.com/post/escape-...

We're heading back into Guardians of Azuma tonight because... well, we can't get enough of it 🥹 It's time to meet the Autumn God🍂

Tonight, we're diving into StarRupture to see if this automation meets survival sim is just as enjoyable as it looks 💫 Wish us luck! A special thanks to the @terminalsio.bsky.social team for allowing us the chance!

Otterly Lost, an upcoming cosy story-driven game where you play as a young and curious otter named Otto, by @soulworksint.bsky.social, now has a delightful little demo 🦦❤️ Article by @leekscosycorner.com www.the-pillow-fort.com/post/otterly...

2026 is going to be a great game for cozy gamers no doubt, but we LOVE how @witchspire.bsky.social is baking in some survival-crafting for those of us who like more of a challenge 🥹❤️
