Cozy gaming is not my main genre of gaming, but Is This Seat Taken? gives me that good brain feeling as I perfected each scenario. While I found the story not entirely interesting, the gameplay loop kept me more than intrigued as I kept passengers happy across its many levels. If doing a few levels before bed had a poster child, I could see this game contending for that prize.

The aesthetics, the comical exchanges between characters, and the truly rewarding feeling and getting 100% of the thumbs up from the little shapes in your seating arrangement. All were great!

Some shapes want peace and quiet, others want to blast music, and a few — well, could really use a shower! The puzzle game has certainly tickled my fancy, with its adorable graphics and unique gameplay. I played the whole game in (almost) one sitting — I had to walk my dog in between — that’s how addictive it is.
