Nowadays I find a lot of games feel like too much work and/or anxiety when I just want to relax for like, 30 minutes to an hour after a long day. On the other hand, the games specifically designed to help you unwind just feel boring imo.
In the past I’ve felt like Outer Wilds scratched this itch, cause the whole experience was engaging but generally relaxed. There was a mystery that kept me hooked and the exploration and movement was fun in and of itself. I also felt like Subnautica filled this role since it was very much at my own pace, with anxiety producing portions which could for the most part be avoided or minimized, and also there was a clear objective to fulfill, get off the planet.
So what games do you play when you just wanna relax?
RimWorld. It’s so fun watching your colonists at work, peacefully farming, and suddenly one of them gets hit by a chunk of steel followed by a hundred bear raid.
Very relaxing.
War crime simulator is apparently quite relaxing.
What’s not relaxing about war crimes and organ harvesting
You forgot drug dealing and slavery
Ah sounds like a soild bit of fun with the lads
Its not multi-player:(
Isn’t there a mutitplayer mod in development
Yes, and provided you look at the mod compatibility sheet, it’s a blast!
If I ever get rimworld I will be sure to give it ago then it’s been in my wishlist for a while now
You can also play in builder mode where there are no raids (or very little challenge to them i cant remember exactly)
