Hozy Game — Frequently Asked Questions

Hozy is a cozy renovation and decorating game developed by Come On Studio and published by tinyBuild. You return to your small hometown and restore abandoned rooms — cleaning, painting, and furnishing them — with no timers, scores, or penalties. It was released on Steam for PC and Mac on March 30, 2026.

Hozy features nine unique locations to explore and restore, each with its own resident's story, layout, and furniture set. Locations include your parents' home attic, an artist's workshop, your little sister's apartment, an old café, an eccentric scientist's flat, a music room, a dreamlike space, your father's seaside retreat, and a collector's hobby room.

Yes. Hozy has a gentle narrative tying all nine locations together. You play as a character who returns to their hometown after city life doesn't work out. Each space you restore belongs to a family member or community member, and small story moments play out between levels through dialogue and environmental storytelling.

Yes. All furniture and décor items can be freely picked up, moved, rotated, and repositioned at any time during the level. There is no penalty for changing your mind. Use the mouse wheel while holding an item to rotate it.

Yes. Press Spacebar to open photo mode. It includes camera angle controls, zoom, and a selection of filters. Screenshots are saved to a folder on your PC. Photo mode is available after all renovation tasks are completed in a level.

Based on community playthroughs, completing all nine levels takes approximately 6–10 hours. Shorter levels like the attic take 15–25 minutes, while larger spaces like the café or seaside retreat take 40–55 minutes. The game is designed for relaxed, unrestricted play so individual times vary widely.

The task checklist guides you, but you can perform tasks in any order you prefer. The game will not penalise you for cleaning the floor before picking up trash, or painting before mopping. The only requirement is completing all listed tasks before the level considers itself finished.

Yes. Every level can be replayed from the world map. Because furniture placement is completely open and wall colours are chosen per playthrough, no two completed rooms look exactly the same. Many players replay levels specifically to experiment with different arrangements and take new photos.
