Celeste (just replaying B-sides or C-sides), any Mario Tennis game (I pretty much rotate through them, with Mario's Tennis being my current fever thanks to Red Viper), Rocket League, Smash 4 on 3DS.

There are a few others that come close, but ultimately these are my go-to when I just need to tune off from brain noise haha. Preferably played in a portable device.

Mirrors edge (both OG and catalyst). world setting of this game, being detached from noisy city widens scope of how I look at everyday life, and overlooking NPCs go on their daily lives makes them appear tiny and insignificant, and I realize almost nothing is worth being anxious over in life, and it inspires me to be mindful and enjoy present moment.

EDIT : to lesser extent, Watch dogs 1 too. Taking a walk in rainy Chicago with "Califone - funeral singers" playing in background is soothing too. worth mentioning that I was not part of hype train leading up to its release because I was not following gaming news at time and just bought game because I liked cover (lol), and since I had no high expectations I enjoyed game for what it was.

For me, it's Gadget Racers (US) (!) on the GBA and King's Bounty on the Genesis. I've completed both games hundreds of times by now. King's Bounty is great because the scepter is in a different location each time you play. Sadly, the second Kings Bounty is nothing like the first one.

Tears of The Kingdom is turning into a comfort game as well. Sometimes, I just build things or look for fucking Koroks and their over packed backpack. FFS guys, thats why you cant move. I'd travel by vehicle, horse (this is a vehicle?), or foot looking for those little bitches. I fight all along the way and my inventory is crazy, so I should probably upgrade my armor soon. I really like the fairies.

Right now I play a lot of Balatro and Into the Breach on my Switch Lite. Playing portable adds up to the comfort factor.

animal crossing new leaf. sometimes the game i mindlessly play the most changes over the years but that one has always been there.
honestly any game i have for my 3DS would probably be just as worthy of the title :-)

What are your comfort game(s)?

Mine is Pokémon Gen 3 games. The spoofer-hwid is a great tool which gamers enjoy for the reason that it features a plethora of benefits. It switches traffic meaning providing continuous gameplay without connection interruptions. With this mechanism, privacy is hence strengthened as identifying information is obscured, and the possibility of interception becomes less likely. The anonymity could be the key to play the games safely with no risk of being punished. It must be mentioned that, in the long run, this contributes to a smooth and safe environment in virtual reality.

My go-to comfort game has to be **Stardew Valley**. There's something incredibly soothing about the routine of tending to my farm, caring for my animals, and exploring the mines. The gentle soundtrack and the charming pixel art style create a cozy atmosphere that's perfect for unwinding after a long day. On days when I need a bit more action, I switch to **Minecraft**. Building and adventuring in my own world, at my own pace, allows me to relax and let my creativity flow. Both games offer a peaceful escape with no pressure, just pure enjoyment.

I have two different kind of comfort games, relaxing and simple action that I can play without thinking too much.

Relaxing:
- Cities skylines 1. My nr.1 relaxing game,
- Lucas arts point n' click.
-Zelda Alttp,OOT,WW
-Mario World SNES

Simple action:
-Doom 2
-Hotline Miami 2 (not easy, but the gameplay is so simple and addicting)
-Red alert 2 and C&C3

    I want a handheld gaming system with a tablet sized screen, like a 8 or10" screen, with controllers that can detach like the Switch.

    I don't see the buzz about a square screen personally. I think there will be a review on the site within a few weeks though if you are interested.

    I've put down the money on the Odin 2 Mini since I just love that Vita form factor. Loved the power of the Odin 2 but the size always put me off, this one seems exactly what I've been wanting.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    My point is we already have enough shit with big displays having something pocketable with up to ps2 would be fine on the go

    Ken unless the games are made for that screen size most suck on a screen that size... Having a square screen and being brighter and higher res helps but it's not a cure all, text is tiny bullets are tiny, your.... Well lol
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You can stretch to fit probably it's not all bad that they make it seem to be
