Comfort games? (beehaw.org)

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?

Trackmania! So many user made maps you never have to see the same map twice, and every map looks unique. You have a simple task: go from start to finish after collecting all checkpoints. Endlessly trying to get random bounces on "LOL" maps just never gets old.

I was playing Trackmania like a manic +10 years ok. tried it on my steam deck now and didn't find any server with users.

was this a Steam Deck issue or is it really that empty?

Which Trackmania game? There are multiple, and some are more popular than others.

really? seems I'm getting old...
checking my Steam, it seems it was Trackmania Turbo

Trackmania Turbo has never really had an active online community. The new Trackmania game called "Trackmania" is the most popular one, but you need to pay €10 each year to access most features.
