A lot of good recommendations in here, some I've played, some I'm adding to my list!
I'll share one that I haven't seen in the thread yet: Crypt Custodian. You play as a ghost cat sentenced to clean garbage in the afterlife. Good mix of exploration and combat. I personally hate when combat keeps me from progressing in a story, so I like that they have Easy/Normal/Hard modes but that you can also further customize assists, like adding up to 3 extra hit points. You can also buy a market to show you the next place to go when you're feeling stuck. Very good cozy-gamer territory.
The story wasn't overly complex, but very sweet–the ending made me cry. I loved elements of the story like one of the bosses being the personification of grief.
I played it on XBox Game Pass, but it was worth paying for.
