Spend hours downloading / messing with proton / configuring, and then play for 15 minutes...
At this point I'm almost convinced I just like the setup process.
Otherwise probably quake.
Diablo II Resurrected. I've been playing it (Diablo II) for 20 years now. Even though I know the game inside out, a new rare rune drop can still make my day. I usually listen to podcasts meanwhile.
Vampire Survivors was tons of fun until I unlocked pretty much everything, but it also goes great with podcasts.
Clone Hero. Even though I only have a keyboard (so say goodbye to the fast strum bits), It often takes me from 'I just want to chill' to 'this song was FIRE'.
Bloons td6 is pretty cool and laid back.
Stardew Valley, Animal Crossing, My Time at Portia, Cozy Grove or Good Pizza, Great Pizza!

I can't name a specific game because they all get old, boring, and unsatisfying after a while. However in terms of genre, it tends to be roguelites and poker.
Euro truck simulator. Just hit the road and drive.
Super smash. The intense gameplay draws me in away from whatever is keeping me from relaxing.
Wurm Unlimited
Hitman: World of Assassination is what I usually go to when I just want to chill and not think much.
iOS / iPad game called "Flight Pilot". Dumb, not even a simulator, just get off the ground and hit hot air baloons for points kind of game. It's just a mindless time for me to relax a bit. You can run "missions" if you want, but you don't have to, and if you're patient, you can level up without making any purchases using real money. It's really great.
Cities Skylines and Civ
I play farming games on emulators on my phone usually.
But when I'm too stressed or tired, I don't really have the energy to play games, just lay on my bed, put something on in the background, and sleep.
Hey! which farming games are your favorite? I've been looking at this genre
Stardew Valley, Rune Factory 4, Friends of Mineral Town, and that's pretty much it.
