I played 20 cozy game demos in Steam Next Fest and these 5 made it onto my wishlist

The full time job of keeping up with cozy games always gets double difficult during the big demo-rama Steam Next Fest Events. It's extra hard this year because yikes there's a lot of AI junk in the store these days. I've waded through hundreds of cozy store pages, dodged the AI disclosures, downloaded 20 demos, and am coming to you with the five cozy games that I'm actually adding to my own wishlist after a busy evening of taste testing.
