Long story short I started watching the Handmaid’s Tale, just finished episode 3 and it’s terribly depressing and too real for me. I’ll keep watching but I need to counter all this negativity.
Hence why I’m looking for some “aftercare” games that will help me cope. Something easy, where I don’t have to think and just follow along good vibes.
I have played the following games, which kind of fit what I’m looking for:
- a short hike
- carto
- frog detective (all 3)
- islanders
- helltaker
- spec ops the line (just kidding)
- mini metro / motorways
- dave the diver
Thank you !
Ill give you some more fast paced than the other recommendations. Games that really suck me in for hours zoned out.
Nova Drift helped me zone out for hours and is good on the steam deck. It’s an Asteroids style game. It’s just shoot up fun with more upgrades the longer you survive.
Crab Champions is a silly shooter with the same basic recipe. Survive, get upgrades. It’s silly though because you are a crab, fighting other crabs. It’s fun.
Comedy option - Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy. Face your life frustrations head on and play a game designed to make you angry.
