Hozy is a small sandbox puzzle about cleaning and freeform decorating

Pcgamer reports that Hozy is a small sandbox puzzle game that lets players clean and decorate rooms, a playtest the writer described as satisfying, cute, and surprisingly detailed.

Each level has you tidy and then furnish a different room; the playtest included a large living room and a tiny studio apartment. Tidying involves swirling garbage into large floating rubbish balls and tossing them into a Tardis‑like wheelie bin, then cleaning windows, wiping floors, and painting or wallpapering. Decorating begins when moving boxes appear: you open them to pull out furniture and have complete freedom to place items such as fridges and potted plants, while ambient sounds like a crackling fireplace and traffic play in the background.

The writer noted a clipping issue with fairy lights that made them hang into empty space, but otherwise had no major complaints and found the experience detailed yet relaxing. There is no release date announced, and with only two levels in the playtest the writer said replaying them is currently the only option while looking forward to 2026.
