Sorry I haven’t replied to anyone, life got a little crazy. I did not expect this many replies on lemmy! Thank you everyone, and I will be checking out a bunch of these! Thank you so much. :) I really appreciate it.

So, I hope this allowed, if not, I’ll remove.

I have a small problem, y’all. I’m a filthy casual, and don’t game often. But right now, due to a lot of very stressful things going on, I’m having trouble sleeping. I’d like a game I can play on the deck for an hour or two at night to get sleepy. Here’s where the hard part comes in:

It’s gotta be cheap (25 or less)

It needs to be not-stressful to play, as in, it works well on the deck, with no fiddling, because I am a dumb and don’t understand things

I don’t actually know what kind of game I want. I don’t care for FPS games, I don’t have the time/patience/money for online multiplayer stuff, and I’m not super in super heavy action games.

I like puzzles, platformers, laid back games. Open world is great. Very small games are fun, but I need something that I can play pretty much every night for a while. I loved portal and the Stanley parable, but I’m burnt out on TSP and I’ve played both portal games several times. I need something with a little more longevity.

Can anyone help with this not at all reasonable request?

    I played through OW mostly right before bedtime last year, and IIRC I slept well, but of course your mileage may vary! I wouldn’t call it “very intense” by any means, but certain sequences can be creepy or tense depending on the person playing.

    You will know when the game is going to get tense, so you explore something else instead and save that part for daytime.

      Maybe it is because I am an anxious person but I’d often be in a rush to try explore something quickly and I was really bad at controlling the ship. haha

      I think it it wasn’t for certain things the game would be pretty chill.
