Hozy

Hozy is a restorative game about returning to your small hometown after things do not work out in the big city. You clean, paint and furnish spaces room by room, gradually bringing back the sense of community in streets that have grown faded and forgotten. There are no timers, scores or penalties, so you can work at your own pace.

Restore the town

Hozy has nine locations to explore and restore. Each contains personal stories from its residents, along with distinctive objects and details that make the spaces feel lived in. You start at your parents’ home, then visit an artist’s workshop and an old café full of memories, among other places. You can also explore dreamlike spaces and help fulfil your father’s long-held dream of a peaceful place by the sea.

You use tools such as a mop, squeegee and crowbar to clean and renovate. Cleaning uses physics-based interactions, and small actions—from wiping windows to repainting walls—are designed to create a calm, satisfying flow.

Furnish and decorate

Each level offers a curated selection of furniture and décor chosen to work well together. Place, rotate and arrange items freely; there is no single right way to furnish a room, and each arrangement can be different. You can also open windows to let in the wind and nature’s sounds, light candles, arrange books, paint a portrait on a wall or switch on a projector.

A photo mode includes filters and advanced camera controls. The game also features an original soundtrack by the composer of Stray and Seasons After Fall.
