Wanderstop managed to make me feel emotionally attacked while making tea, and I love it. If you’re looking for a cozy game to indulge in this weekend, whether indoors or in the pseudo-spring weather outside, Wanderstop is a great fit — and it’s discounted to $22.49 through March 18 on Steam as part of the Steam Spring Sale (was $24.99).

Wanderstop gives you a chance to engage in typical cozy tasks like reading books, making tea, and decorating your cute little shop, but the narrative and design decisions provide some interesting wrinkles. As you progress through the story, you’ll find that Wanderstop has a lot to say on topics like burnout, being present, learning to let go, and working through tough feelings. If Animal Crossing is your friend who always agrees with your bad takes, Wanderstop is the therapist who challenges your negative self-talk.
And just in case Wanderstop isn’t your cup of tea, we’ve also rounded up a short list of other games discounted during the Steam Spring Sale that you might want to check out.
