Could you build this?

Partial A cozy management game is buildable with web or Unity tooling, and AI-generated code can handle much of the logic. Real game feel, art, and balancing are harder, and the relationship simulation needs design depth.

What it would actually take: A real version needs a game engine (Unity, Godot, or a web framework), asset creation (art, animation, audio), and a simulation layer for NPC relationships, affinity, and mini-games. The hard part is design and polish, since a satisfying loop requires playtesting and iteration that AI-assisted coding does not provide. A small team with game-design and art skills is needed.
