The format of these posts is simple: let’s discuss a specific game or series!
I'm in quite a bad place mentally at the moment, so I wasn't really feeling like making a post. But then I thought, I could combine this in the form of a special discussion topic:
Let's discuss your favorite Uplifting Games. What helps you when your feeling down or stressed out. What game series has comforted you in harder times. Are there certain genres that work better for you in these times? Feel free to share anything that comes up and react to other comments. Let's get the conversation going!
If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

Dave The Diver: you run a sushi restaurant and go diving to catch fish. The writing is quirky, it's full of interesting characters and there's no time limits except for some events. I'll spend days just fishing for the restaurant instead of doing any "story stuff". I picked a steam key on CDkeys for £7 and I can already see myself pouring 40 hours in this thing if I want. The trailer if anyone is interested
Seconded. Dave the Diver is very uplifting and not punishing at all - if you make a mistake, it has very few consequences
