Snow Way Around It - Winter Whiskers Is a Cozy Cleaning Game That Will Warm Your Heart!
A tiny stoat. A giant blizzard. And a brand-new cozy cleaning game that just blew in.
21 May 2026 - Cuddle up with a cozy blanket for this new project by Mango Leaf Games: Winter Whiskers, a simple cleaning sim that turns the chore of snow-clearing into a relaxing and satisfying game.
Mango Leaf Games has revealed Winter Whiskers, a cozy snow-cleaning adventure where players vacuum snow, restore steam-powered machinery, and help a frozen harbor town prepare for its Winter Festival.
"For us, the appeal of Winter Whiskers is the feeling it creates. It’s inspired by our love for peaceful snowy mornings, when everything feels quiet, slow, and a little magical. We also love games that simply feel good to interact with. We want players to experience that simple “brain go brrrr” feeling of carving clean paths through thick snow, the satisfying burst of blowing away snow, and the nice melting of snow from the steam powered system of the town."
- Axie Lotl, Art Director at Mango Leaf Games
The cozy snow-clearing game will also take part in the Cozy & Family Friendly Games Celebration on 28 May, and already invites players to leave a wishlist on Steam so they'll be informed of when a demo becomes available later this year.

About the Game
An unexpected blizzard just rolled through town, and right before the big Winter Festival! Winterlight Harbor needs you and your fancy snow tools to help clear away all the snow so that the Winter Festival can go ahead as scheduled.
At the heart of this adventure is your trusty snow vacuum and the broken steam system that usually powers the town. Vacuum up all the snow and load it into furnaces that convert it into steam, turning back on the power in homes, lighting the streets, and activating vents that melt icy paths. Your cleanup efforts literally warm up the town and make it safe for your friends.
Key Features
- Clear away the snow - Vacuum up snow to clear the roadways, blow snow off of planters to bring back flowers, and more! Progress through the areas to learn about new ways to reach tricky spots and clear icy obstacles.
- Fix the steam system - Restore the town’s steam-powered network by fueling furnaces and reconnecting steam pipes. These help melt the snow even faster, clear giant snow drifts that block your path, and ultimately bring warmth back to the town.
- Fulfil requests: The blizzard has disrupted everything! Help your friends with small tasks like clearing storefronts, completing important deliveries, and more, so that they can focus on preparing for the Winter Festival.
- Enjoy the Winter Festival: See the town come alive as your hard work pays off. After a hard day's work, celebrate with hot cocoa, fun games, and a cozy festival shared with the whole community.
