Plan your next Cozy Caravan session
Our guide helps you make the most of Cozy Caravan’s open‑ended systems without relying on hidden mechanics. By observing how each feature interlocks—character design, caravan upgrades, crafting, happiness, and the fair—you can shape a playthrough that feels both personal and rewarding.

- Experiment with different animal species to find a silhouette you enjoy.
- Combine contrasting colours for a standout look.

- Prioritize interior layout that eases crafting workflow.
- Use visual upgrades to make the caravan feel personal.
