Announcing Cozy Stickerville!
Welcome to Cozy Stickerville: Explore, sticker, and build your very own cozy adventure!
Board game nights are about to get a lot more relaxed (and a lot sticker-ier) with Unexpected Games' brand new game, Cozy Stickerville.
As is our way, we’ve been cooking up something a little unexpected for our community, and we’re proud to share that this new family-friendly cooperative game will be hitting shelves in February 2026. Designed by Corey Konieczka, Cozy Stickerville is a game for 1-6 players, ages 10+ that takes you on a charming cooperative adventure through a fictional countryside of your very own creation.
A legacy game without barriers
Cozy Stickerville invites you to build your own village, welcome new residents, solve mysteries, and leave behind a personalized legacy. Unique from other legacy games, this one has simplified game mechanics, quick story beats, and few ‘points of no return’; making it accessible and easy to pick up and play.
This game has been developed for lovers of all things cozy and narrative, for the players that are “here for the vibes” on game night. It’s been built to allow you to play a game in full exploration mode, where you are the author of your own story. Cozy Stickerville is a game you literally can’t lose, so the world of decision is truly your oyster... and it’s all done through stickers, yes! Stickers!
Tiles are out, stickers are in!
An important part of what makes Cozy Stickerville truly unique is, you guessed it, the stickers! Our game makes use of over 800 stickers, allowing players to physically shape their village and leave a lasting mark on the game board. Every sticker represents a choice, a moment, or a discovery; creating a visual diary of your group’s unique story as it unfolds.
" There are countless options, and each decision leaves your fingerprints on your village. Regardless of your dreams you must build, advance, and explore,” says designer, Corey Konieczka.
The game draws inspiration from popular cozy video games, where simplicity is key but the player is empowered with meaningful decisions. This balance makes Cozy Stickerville accessible and easy to play, while still offering a good depth of decisions and buckets of personalization, giving you the freedom to make the world of Stickerville entirely your own.
Endless possibilities, at your own pace
The story of Cozy Stickerville plays out over 10 self-paced “years” (or rounds), where players will uncover events, make decisions, and evolve the game depending on their choices. What really sells it though, is how adaptable it is to your group’s personality. Some players will lean into teamwork, making collaborative decisions every step of the way. Others (you know who you are) will go rogue, pushing boundaries just to see what happens.
Designer Corey Konieczka agrees, “there’s no wrong way to play! You have control of your actions during your turn, so you can engage with the game (and your friends) however you’d like."
Either way, the game evolves to reflect your choices, and the story you tell together.
A game so nice, you can play it twice
Here at Unexpected Games we’re always looking to deliver something, well, unexpected, and with Cozy Stickerville we wanted to challenge the traditional “one and done” model of legacy games. Thanks to the game’s double-sided board once you finish your first campaign, you can flip it over and begin an entirely new story, no new purchases or “refresh” kits needed!
We wanted to give you the opportunity to go a little wild; to try different paths, make fresh decisions, or play with a new group altogether. It’s like the RPG equivalent of your first playthrough being your “best choices” game, and your second playthrough being the “let’s embrace the chaos” run. Cozy Stickerville gives players the rare chance to experience two distinct and fully unique adventures if they choose!
