      Well, you’re on to something there. I do like a lot of games, I mean I collect board games and play solo games all year long. I think I just don’t like stress-inducing games or games where, if you miss a jump to a platform, you have to start over from scratch (which is how most early video games are since there weren’t many save options).

      I loved the first three God of War games, and still play them over and over. I like that they are on the rails, you only play as one character, there’s plenty of health chests along the way, and even when a fight or a puzzle is challenging, it isn’t impossible and you actually can overcome it and live to see the rest of the game.

      And I like open-ended simulation games like Sim City and Stardew Valley where you can play at a leisurely pace.

        Might I suggest The Room series of games? They’re high quality puzzle box/escape room games with no time limits or penalties. You just take your time solving the puzzles at your own pace.

          That sounds a lot more like my style. I like to go at my own pace and so I’m more into casual puzzle type games. Thanks for the suggestion!
