I’m talking barebones. Tetris. Picross-like. Something that requires very little thought and is addictive.

For background, the reason I’m asking is because I recently read that researchers found that participants in a study on traumatic events saw that people who played tetris during their recovery had less traumatic response/activation over time? I’m currently going through a pretty traumatic time in life and am just looking for games that activate my lizard brain to forget about the hard times for a little while. Thanks in advance.

    I haven’t seen it mentioned yet so I’ll throw out Dave the Diver. Game is crazy simple outside of the core gameplay loop there are like a dozen mini games to keep you engaged.

    I know the top results have been Brotato and I’ll also second that opinion, but if you wanted something that was a bit more aesthetic Dave the Diver is good. Also you might learn a thing or two since it’s all real fish and whatnot.
