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 rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Waiting for Anbernic's rg[whatever]SP price announcement, gimme.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
