Games that make you just relax, and feel good

[CrysisMcGee]

The title says it all. Not games that get you excited and riled up, just calm and make you feel good. Something that unwinds you.

For me, It's an adventure game called The Longest Journey. I get so immersed in it and the game is very rewarding.

Fl0w does it for me.I also enjoy relaxing in the Chao garden in SA2:B.

Definitely. Or puzzle games like Crush. For some reason I just hit my zen when puzzling.

 

[Spider Expert]

Knytt Stories or Braid

I relax when I play a slow song in Audiosurf. I've also noticed I relax when i play COD 5, oddly enough. I think it's due to the fact that doing almost anything else, I am super tense.

Fantavision is a fireworks game. It can be quite relaxing.

 

[New Troll]

I'm not a relaxing gamer, mentally, so my casual game of choice is Plants vs. Zombies.

 

[cloudywolf13]

Pretty much any game relaxes me.

ohh man get me a good tangram or kakuro and I'm set. also, mindless games like solitaire really help me relax (and also help me get past writer's block)

Homeworld 2, Shadow of the Colossus, Aquaria, Flower... sometimes Sins of a Solar Empire, but only on the easier games.

Flower times nine thousand!

I don't know if relaxed is the word for it since it actually really winds me up, but I always get simple enjoyment from RezHD. It's just so damn pretty, and I like techno music.

My man license will be revoked for this but Animal Crossing. It's very relaxing just to wander around town and fish.

 

[FeralPhantom]

Team Fortress 2, only game I've ever played that made me feel completely relaxed while blowing people up.

 

[FallenJellyDoughnut]

Fatal Frame relaxes me. You should try it when your angry it will be fun!

 

[Chancie]

Dog's Life. A total guilty pleasure but it's rather calming. xD

Though, Okami and Shadow of the Colossus are ones for me, if you're looking for a not-quite-as-pathetic answer.

 

[NeutralDrow]

Pretty much any game relaxes me.

This, unless I'm playing through the game for the first time.

Still, I guess I'd say that Stepmania relaxes me more than most.
