So amongst other things I'm on a high dose of valium right now, and things are difficult. Gosh darn it even dressing is an effort (who has two thumbs, didn't get out of bed/her nightie this morning? And maybe will live in bed forever now? This girl).

My girlfriends I live with are all mile-a-minute getting ready to fly out for a work trip and I feel like a magikarp to their Sonic the Hedgehog.

My question is, what do I buy for my Steam Deck to keep me sane that requires the dexterity of a potato. Or at least, that I can take a loooong time to figure out. No pressure.

Just finished Final Fantasy VII Remake before all of this, and I'd love something far less intense and concentrate-y (even though God damn was that game pretty and incredible and yes I downloaded FFXV because I love the modern FF world now)

(Srsly, FF7 Remake was sublime)

I suck at games like minecraft and surviving crafting things.

Subnautica looks like a dream but...crafting and survival. I hate that genre. Love oceans and tropical. Hate crafting.

Someome help? Plz? <3 (And thanks, sorry for rambling here x)

Slay the Spire is a classic, it's all turn based, playing is easy but mastering it is a deep skill if that's something you're into.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a cool CRPG, the exploration is real-time and it switched to turn based for combat. Very big and large, and you can spend a lotta time running around learning lore rather than fighting if that's what you like.

Persona 5 Royal is a dream, again turn-based fighting, cute characters and story, very anime. Also long (took me like 90 hours) but never feels drawn-out.

If you like board games, I've recently got the Aeons End digital adaptation, and that's a lotta fun. It's co-op, but you can play "two-handed" (aka control 2 people) and it works pretty flawlessly, and the app is very good. If you really wanna be ambitious you can even play up to 4-handed, but I feel like that's too much brainpower for any sane person lol
