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 !

      Can absolutely vouch for Chuzzke Deluxe. Only problem I have with it now is that last I checked, some of the settings don’t work if you are on Linux and using proton. Mainly just the setting for windowed mode, if I remember correctly. But that’s a minor thing considering how cheap the game is on Steam.

      Edit:

      It’s $4.99USD, so it’s not really that expensive, but I for some reason thought it was a slightly lower price. Still recommended if you don’t mind spending that little amount to pick it up.
