Cozy Companion (Feb. 2026) (Digital)

$19.99

Whether it’s your family, galentine, valentine, puppy love, or faithful cat-panion, this month is all about showing a little extra love to those around us. For this February volume, we’ve pulled together some great articles, crafts, and recipes that you can use to spread the love from today through the rest of the year.

Our featured artist, Toshia San, sets the stage with her art focused on caring for creatures big and small in the depths of a winter forest through the blooms of spring. Then put yourself back in the dating game with Pixel’s Playthrough of Monster Con or in the center of your own regency romance with Scribbles’ session report on Sentai & Sensibility. After recovering from your love life antics, we recommend you slow down a bit with our fiction, Summer Fruit for a Winter Child. Afterwards, try our recipe for Mahogany Cake and Ermine Frosting, which has stood the test of timeless love for over 140 years. Be sure to check our Shop Spotlight with Pieces, The Original Boardgame Bar and Restaurant of St Louis, as they discuss how they rejuvenated a historic building to create a great gaming space. Next, pair our interview with Hot Banana Games, the creators of Steam Up, A Feast of Dim Sum, with the history article about four dumpling-based recipes from around the world: pierogies, ravioli, sui mai, and samosas. Finally, we invite you to finish up by showing a little love to your pets and even to your tech with Dice’s review of Super Kawaii Pets and our Crafting article for creating a heart-filled digital pouch.
