7 Night In The Woods

A Thrilling Mystery With An Inclusive Cast

Nominated for Best Independent Game at The Game Awards 2017, Night in the Woods is a superb side-scrolling adventure with a nail-biting mystery.

With no timers, dialogue, or overt narrative, the game invites players to explore emotional milestones—childhood, college, love, heartbreak, and new beginnings—purely through environmental storytelling. As the new kid in class, you’ll make friends, deal with bullies, flirt—and even solve a few mysteries. You’ll play as an innkeeper who mixes and serves drinks to a laundry list of quirky, whimsical characters.

Unapologetically queer, super funny, and more than a little weird, Dream Daddy: A Dad Dating Simulator is a memorable and silly dating sim for the modern era. Rival or helpful ally? The character customization system is very inclusive, so you can build the (trans or cis) dad avatar to suit your deepest dadsona. True friend or sworn enemy?

To celebrate, let’s talk about LGBTQ+ inclusive cozy games!

I know that some games, particularly farming sims, have all the characters as “player sexual.” This means you can date anyone, regardless of their gender or yours. The narrative is anywhere from one to ten minutes long, so you can easily play through all of the story routes.

The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood

Genre: Interactive visual novel

The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood is a deeply-interactive visual novel about a young witch who was banished from her coven and seeks to… Well, what she seeks is actually up to you. There are no monsters, no gore—just light chills-n-thrills throughout.

LGBTQ+ Content: This is a spoiler, but the character who seems to be “missing” is not really missing at all.

There are twists and turns galore, and a lot of content warnings (abuse, suicide), so please play with care!

LGBTQ+ Content: Max and Chloe are both canonically queer, and you can have them romantically involved with one another by the end of the game if you make the right choices.

A Scary Visual Novel With Excellent Bi Characters

Looking to test your bravery? A Normal Lost Phone

Genre: Interactive visual novel

A Normal Lost Phone puts the player in possession of, well, a normal lost phone.

Game. You’ll spend your days gardening, caring for animals, crafting, doing quests for the villages, meeting otherworldly creatures, visiting magical realms, and performing rituals to protect the island you now call home. 

LGBTQ+ Content: Tara can date Amira and Giva (two women) or Kim (who is non-binary). This beautifully told, heartbreaking tale—and its prequel, Life Is Strange: Before the Storm—thoughtfully explores what it means to grow up and to be a true friend.

One Night, Hot Spring

Genre: Interactive visual novel

One Night, Hot Spring is a micro-novel with branching paths that can net you a series of endings. Oh yeah, it’s voice acted by the Game Grumps and friends!

For example, simple things like going to the bathroom become a source of anxiety and potential trauma.
