With gaming often bringing me into a really depressive headspace sometimes with how the markets are developing, whats a game you can always go to and just be lost in, or just be happy with?

Personally i would go for advance wars 1 and 2 on the gba (there is no remake and never will be)

the artstyle, the music, the game-play is just simple, yet effective, a sublime experience of very fun times.

Whats yours?

SpiderHeck is super easy to just jump in and play. It has been mine lately. I'm still playing Ultima Online and City of Heroes regularly.

Hold the fucking phone, ultima online is still alive??? Is it like fan servers?

Pokemon Emerald is a nice comfort game for me. Replaying it can feel like a summer vacation for my mind. It's like a vacation spot you frequently go to so it feels like a home away from home. There's adventure, cute creatures, and just a general sense of fun.

Stardew Valley is great and I love playing it online with friends when there's time and schedules line up. I honestly just fish all day in that game. That and spend time with my sad sad emo boy Sebastian.

When I’m bored and have a couple hours to fill, I often go back to Unpacking. It’s so cozy and satisfying.

Waves/Waves 2! Fantastic twin stick shooters, now free as well. Both have great chip tune soundtracks.

Animal Crossing was surprisingly relaxing for that kind of task oriented approach and the conversations with islanders are chill and entertaining.
