Is This Seat Taken? is a fresh, cozy, and delightfully silly puzzle game on Android. Created by Poti Poti Studio and published by Wholesome Games—the same team behind Minami Lane and MakeRoom—it offers a surprising sense of warmth as you help characters feel seen and at ease.
It’s a world brimming with quirks and clashing personalities, but…
Is This Seat Taken? is a logic puzzle that presents everyday dilemmas many of us have encountered but never had to resolve. Think crowded buses, awkward movie theaters, tense weddings, or taxi rides with strangers—the scenarios are endless.
Each setting presents a new challenge: assign seats based on everyone’s unique preferences. Someone drenched in strong cologne shouldn’t sit beside a guest with a sensitive nose.
Meanwhile, a tired traveler might not appreciate sharing a row with someone blasting music through headphones. And so it goes—from picky banquet guests to groggy commuters—it’s your job to find the perfect seating arrangement for everyone, without rushing.
The main character is Nat, an aspiring actor whose journey begins when they spot a shape on screen that looks just like them. That unexpected moment of recognition sparks a global quest for identity and belonging, unfolding across cities and levels.
Is This Seat Taken? is calm and humorous
As you solve puzzles, you unlock new scenarios—packed taxis, grand banquets, and more. Each level introduces a fresh group of fussy characters. Some insist on the window seat. Others demand the aisle. Some just want to be left alone.
The characters are sentient shapes with strong opinions about who they sit next to. The game’s absurd yet familiar logic makes it hard not to smile at the parallels. Watch the latest launch trailer below. And don’t forget to explore the game on the Google Play Store.
