Hey everyone!
I’m looking for some casual games to play while I’m on a call with a friend. I want something super chill that doesn’t require too much focus or brainpower. I’ve tried Shapez.io, but it felt a bit too complex for what I’m looking for. Minecraft vanilla survival is also a no-go since it demands a bit more attention than I want to give right now.
Any recommendations for games that are easy to pick up and play, where I can just relax and enjoy the conversation without getting too caught up in the gameplay?
Thanks in advance!
My wife calls these her “high games”:
- Donut county
- Katamari
- Unpacking
- Luna’s fishing garden
Mine:
- Goat Simulator
- Gorillaz Geep flash game (I could play this for hours and there is no goal, just feels like driving in GTA without consequence)
- Starstruck Vagabond
My friends and I like to play Rocket League while chatting. It’s free to play now. We were absolutely terrible when we first tried it but we’ve gotten pretty good over the years. We like doing a Spotify jam and trading off album picks too.
Some of my other friends will do Borderlands while talking, but I think that’s a little too much going on, plus I’m not that into shooters. But maybe that’s appealing to you guys.
We’re probably gonna get Space Marine II soon for this as well. Seems like Gears of War for the modern era.
Streets of Rage 4 is also a fucking good time. Excellent music too.
Balatro just came out on mobile. Might be a bit too much focusing if you’re really into min-maxing though.
Haven’t tried it myself but Tiny Glade just came out and looks like something that might fit that vibe.
Or Dorfromantik
Vampire Survivors is perfect for that.
