I like mini motorways and stardew valley. What about you ?
Planet Crafter, Modded Minecraft, and Modded Stardew Valley.
Old school FPS games. Doom, Quake, Unreal, etc. They’re just simple, cathartic stress relief.
Same. But I have found OpenArena (based on the Quake III code) to be an update with a decent amount of online players.
In the same cathartic relief idea i also remember finishing both god of wars on ps2 as a kid. Worked great as anger management too. I feel like doom as a very similar energy in that regards.
Cult of the Lamb
Doom
Which one?
Yes.
Idk. I’m broke in the brain. The games I play to unwind tend to have high performance demands. I became the top ranked player in project muse with what I thought was casual play. Turns out that obsession is second nature to me. What I like more than anything else is being able to have my fingers move as fast as I can think.
I don’t think I actually de-stress though. Anyone have any ideas for me?
I de stress by engrossing and ignoring my problems so I tend towards whatever sucks me in. Started Osu! In 2012, other than that I like things like tarkov and am getting close to 4k hours in hunt: showdown. I get told it’s not as casual as I say it is, but it’s casual to me lol
I fuckin love Osu! I miss my computer.
I‘m shocked so many people align with me there:
- Minecraft
- Factorio
- Rimworld
Additionally:
- OpenRA red alert
- Counterstrike 2
- Klondike
- Watching Phasmophobia
- Dyson Sphere Program
- Satisfactory
- X4 foundation
Age of Empires 2. Random real world map.
Superflight is fun. Simple wingsuit flying game. Mini Metro is great. So is Fez!
Superflight looks like my jam! And it’s super cheap! Thanks for the recommendation!

Recently: Brotato and RAILGRADE
I got Brotato on sale a couple weeks ago on steam and I’m terrible at it but still having a good time.
Got 3 victories under my belt & a bunch of unlocks, though. Any pointers for a “noob”?
Just Cause 3, but I’m honestly a bit tired of it now. I love just wingsuiting around the place and I’ve never found anything else that gives me that same level of catharsis.
I do switch to JC4 occasionally just for a change of scenery, but the wingsuit feels too… floaty? In that one. Idk, just doesn’t feel the same.
I am desperately open to suggestions for something similar in terms of brain off flow state gaming.
I kinda liked the wingsuit in 4 tbh. I loved actually flying around with the jetpack. But it has nothing on the jetpack in 3, with the rocket launcher and all.
Teardown is good if you are playing for the destruction aspect. If you’re a fan of nice open world movement than the spiderman games are good if you ignore the copganda. And honestly I really enjoy death stranding for a game to relax too. It gets action packed sometimes but not too often
Teardown is on my wishlist! Might pull the trigger this weekend and try it out. I did enjoy Spiderman, but death stranding was waaay too slow for me lol
Teardown is a really solid game under the technical gimmick. It plays more like a puzzle game, but way more open ended.
Yeah, I was surprised how much fun I had with that. Was on PSPlus a month or two back.
It’s a bit hit and miss in places, but overall it’s pretty solid.
Skyrim, without a doubt. That ambiance…
I feel cold when I play it. Especially in the northern parts of the map.
For me it’s probably KSP and/or KSP2, which is weird because I literally design and program for rockets as a job…
Have you ever done this?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
all my stress just melts away picking up my switch and sitting out on a bench somewhere riding on a horse in breath of the wild while hearing soft, soothing melodies play.
I swear I think I’m gonna have hundreds of hours into this game before I ever beat it
