Cozy Puzzle
Cozy Co-Workers
Three stations. A growing team. A café that starts to feel like the heart of the town.
What you do
Cozy Co-Workers is a thoughtful café team puzzle. Start with three people, invite new teammates and plan eight changing shifts on the way to the town festival. Assign a different person to each station, compare the forecast, and balance role fit, tiredness, training and café improvements. Every station has a clear target and every shift gives an honest receipt of how your choices worked.
- Eight themed shifts with three stations and specific targets each day.
- A six-person team recruited from twenty characters with different skills and work styles.
- Exact forecasts: see the result before opening the café, with no hidden dice rolls.
- Three shift plans, meaningful tiredness and recovery, coaching, breaks and café improvements.
- A station-by-station receipt after each shift and four festival endings based on your stars.
- Readable buttons for mouse, touch and keyboard, plus a saved run on this device.
How to play
- Choose one of today’s three stations, then choose a teammate to assign there.
- Fill every station with a different person. Moving an assigned person swaps their station.
- Compare station skill with its target and choose Easy rhythm, Fresh perspectives or One big push.
- Open the café to resolve the shift. Every successful station earns a festival star.
- Use earned thanks to improve the café, coach teammates or pay for a proper break.
- Invite one new teammate after each of the first three shifts. Rotate your crew so tired people can recover.
- Complete eight shifts and see your festival story. Chase up to 24 stars on your next run.

Tips worth knowing
- Preferred roles give +4 skill. A related job can still be a good fit.
- People on shift gain tiredness; those sitting out recover two points. Rotate before reaching the −6 skill penalty.
- Fresh perspectives gives +3 to each station when all three work styles differ.
- One big push gives +4 but adds extra tiredness. Save it for a shift that needs the boost.
- Café improvements help two roles each. Think about the next day as well as the current targets.
