Depart on a heartwarming and homey adventure with your bestie Bubba in Cozy Caravan. This chill management sim, developed by 5 Lives Studios, entered Early Access in May 2024. In this game, you'll travel around an adorable and picturesque countryside in a bee-drawn caravan, taking in the sights and helping out the local townsfolk. In Episode 31 of No Small Games, Esnueil (or Essy, for shot) joins Kate and Emily to talk about Cozy Caravan, the very first Early Access game covered int he podcast. They discuss their likes and dislikes among the unique and innovative features of this management sim game. A striking resemblance to a certain 2023 cozy life sim brings up some unpleasant memories for the three. You'll also get to hear the group share their thoughts on the premise of Early Access at a high level. We hope you love this season opener for Cozy Fall!
