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?

    • Project zomboid is game I’ve sunken 860 hours in since purchasing it in late 2018 I highly recommend it to anyone best zombie game on the market in my opinion even the base game alone without mods you’ll find nothing like it

    • beamng. Drive is a decent title quite fun I’ve sunken 290 hours into it it’s a good game to pass the time I only recommend getting it if it’s on sale due to £20 being way to much for this game considering its unfinished nature

    • watch dogs 2/1 is another great game to get your average ubisoft open world title I found these games to be quite fun would recommend for you to wait for them to go on sale

    • gta 5/4 great titles no explanation needed especially for gta 4 10/10 if you haven’t tried gta 4 your missing out

    • celeste is a game that you may find enjoyable it’s top notch stuff and can run it on anything
