I'm looking something to take up the time I'd normally spend scrolling reddit.

Something that's reasonable to play for 2-5 minutes or for over an hour.

My current go-to is Alto's adventure or doing laps in Assetto Corsa Competizione.

Spider-Man Remastered and Death Stranding are my top ones. Vampire Survivors is an obvious suggestion though.

But Spider-Man and DS hit super different in handheld. I love jumping on Spider-Man swinging around and stopping crime. It's a perfect mindless game imo once you have nothing left to learn. So I just boot up and chill every now and again.

Death Stranding is super unique to me, I have 50 hours in the starting area alone. If you bum rush the story idk if it'd be chill, but when you're in the open world I don't know of another game that's able to just let you feel like running from point to point is engaging. I really enjoy playing this on the SteamDeck while watching TV or a movie. It's like mindless enough but still can be entertaining. And everynow and again you have a BT event that makes you focus up. But it's fun to just do side missions and they are technically never ending in that as soon as you clear out a batch of deliveries you'll get more. I love it.

I have a PS5 and both games on there and I am so much more likely to put a show/movie I want to watch on the tv and boot up either one of those games.
