There have been similar threads before so you could look for those. Found two:
Seen Slime Rancher getting recommended, didn't like it that much, but it was a nice game to try; I'll probably give it a second chance later.
That's the only one I can say anything about. Can't think of any personal recommendations.

What exactly is it that makes a game cozy to you? It's sort of a broad term since it mostly goes off vibes, so it can be helpful to have certain themes or gameplay mechanics in mind.

A game that I really enjoy is Fields of Mistria! It's still in early access but the full release is on August 5th this year! It is very similar to Stardew Valley and it is just as cozy.

You might like Sun Haven; it's sort of like if you mixed SDV with DnD. It's had some controversy surrounding the devs, but it was at least partly because of a lack of game credits and they added some recently. If the game looks interesting to you just make sure you do some research before buying so you don't feel scammed. (I didn't find out about everything until after I played the game a bunch... It didn't ruin it for me, but was still disappointing.)
Cattails doesn't have the funnest map to explore, but there are still some neat places. It has a good number of fun characters to talk to as well (they are ALL cats). There's also a second game called Cattails: Wildwood Story, but I haven't gotten around to playing it yet.
I don't think Undertale is usually thought of as a cozy game (probably because of the neutral and genocide routes), but if you haven't played it yet you should consider it! I'm not that far in, but the world and characters have all been fun and interesting so far.
There's also My Time at Portia. I found progression a bit confusing/difficult, but that might just be a me problem... Besides that it's pretty fun. You can tame a cat (and later also a dog).
That's all I can really think of right now, but there's a good chance I'll find or remember more later.... Do you have any opinions on metroidvanias with occasionally difficult boss fights and puzzle solving?
