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.

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.
I guess whatever Kairosoft sim game I'm playing at the moment. Right now that's Tropical Resort Story. I am entirely addicted to their formula. I love watching my little guys do things and helping them succeed.
Or maybe Shadow of the Colossus. It's the game I know better than any other. I'll never not be able to jump into at least normal difficulty. And I can just ride around the Forbidden Lands having thoughts and feelings for hours sometimes. The Forbidden Lands are a very placid, pensive place for me. I have known them since I was a teenager, for nearly 20 years. And occasionally I can tackle a Colossus or two.

Where are my Satisfactory Pioneers at?
Man I really wanted to like Satisfactory and play it all the way through, but it's just that much worse than factorio in a lot of ways, it didn't quite hook me in the same way. It got really repetitive/grueling in the late game, I think the tier after aluminum, and I just got bored with it.
I think the great thing about Satisfactory is you don't have to "beat it". Just do what you want in it, proceed as far along the tech tree as you please, and if you happen to get all the way through it, congrats.
I've played almost 1000 hours and haven't beaten the last Space Elevator tier. But I'm not bothered by it. I like so many of the other aspects of the game that I don't need to "beat" it. I like making every production line 100% efficient, I like building beautiful buildings, and I think the game is so much fun to simply run around in. It's honestly the game I've had the most fun moving around in since Titanfall. Titanfall definitely edges Satisfactory out in this department, comfortably, but Satisfactory is still a blast to simply explore the world in.
That's just my take on it though. Your opinion of it is definitely valid. It is a big grind to get all the way through the last Space Elevator tier.
Hitman: World of Assassination is what I usually go to when I just want to chill and not think much.
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.
