I am not a regular gamer, but once or twice in the week I am indulging in some after work gaming. Mostly I enjoy games that are either story rich to put different thoughts in my mind or games with a simple, but enjoyable gameplay (not too much micromanagement).

Here are my favorites for an after work gaming spree:

Football Manager (mainly 2008 and 2014 edition)
Citizen Sleeper
Suzerain
Disco Elysium
The Long Dark
Dave the Diver
Hotline Miami
System Shock 2
The Long Drive

What about you, what do you play after work (even occasionally) to get your mind off or do you have any suggestions in general?

Satisfactory for me. I like setting a small goal for myself to build a whole factory piece by piece.

I just can't. I can play it during weekends and hollidays but after a day's work my brain is too fried to design factories.

I’ve spent the past few days building a thermal propulsion rocket factory. I’ve never built one like it before. It’s absolutely enormous so far, I lost track after it hit 40x50. Inside, it’s split up into rooms with one or two simple outputs each. The outputs are carried to other rooms on conveyors or in pipes on the second floor, completely hidden from view. Need to perfect the lighting and interior navigation, but I generally don’t care what the upstairs hallways look like.

It’s intense. I’m like 500 hours in.
