I’m not talking high, I’m not talking vibing, I mean absolutely covered in cookie crumbs baked.

Sometimes, it’s nice to come home from an awful day at work, smoke a toke, and forget about problems for a minute.

I usually would just continue playing whatever game I’m actively into at the moment. But when you’re sitting there covered in cookie crumbs, maybe trying to figure out how to play Boulder Gate 3 might be too tedious for the moment.

Vampire Survivors is what I typically play, but sometimes it’s nice to have more than one option.

      I got reeeeallllly baked once and played NMS with a couple friends for the first time. I got lost/stuck in a dark cave for a solid 20 minutes.

      It was hilarious and we still bring it up once in awhile.

      10/10 would recommend.

      +1 to Tetris Effect. Play it with some good audio too, they really went hard with it. NMS is always a blast.

      As someone who’s never taken a drug in their life, I wonder what sort of reaction someone on LSD would have to something like Tetris Effect.

      I mean, my nickname for that game is “Trippy Tetris”.

        Can confirm Tetris effect is the ultimate high Tetris experience. Especially the way the music syncs with your moves, it’s the ultimate synesthesia.

      on that social media site we don’t talk about there was an entire community called No Man’s High. That’s how great it is when you’re torched.

    These are the ones I’ve tried personally.

    -Brotato It’s like vampire survivor, but potato

    -Subnautica The underwater visuals are perfect for baked brains

    -Destiny 2 Go solo and just visit the different worlds, don’t worry about quests or missions just enjoy the scenery and shoot things, occasionally. Without knowing what’s going on there are a lot of neat secrets places to stumble into and some of the scenery is awe inspiring.

    -Disco Elysium If you can read and toke, it takes you places

    -Dorf Romantik Someone already mentioned this but it’s worth it. Like a puzzle, but there are no wrong pieces

    -Eufloria Not complicated, very chill. I don’t know how to describe what it is…leaf seeds fighting each other?

    -Lego Pick a franchise and there’s a Lego game. Doesn’t require much brain power and you always feel like your winning.

    -Red Dead Redemption 2 It’s like going for a walk in the wilderness from the couch

    -Superliminal It’ll bend your brain and is totally worth completing in one sitting. If you can’t figure out what to do just look it up. The end is worth being high for. Kind of like Stanley Parable, but with ‘perspective’.

    -Stanley Parable Definitely try this one.

    Peggle and Tetris effect are also really great suggestions. Tetris Effect has a really great reactive soundtrack.

    Ones I haven’t tried but think would work

    -High on life

    -Powerwash simulator

      I don’t know about Subnautica - seems like it might be a little too intense for me. Maybe ABZU? Same underwater theme/vibe as Subnautica without the pants-shitting terror

    Not really a stoner myself but I bet the following would be good:

    -The Catacombs of Solaris Revisited

    -A Short Hike

    -Placid Plastic Duck Simulator

    -Untitled Goose Game

    -Manifold Garden

    -The Looker

    -Peggle Deluxe

    -Sable

    -Genital Jousting

    -Abzu

    -The Stanley Parable

    -Bugsnax

    Scarlet Tower - If you like Vampire Survivors, you’ll love this

    Bloons TD6 - Baked monkes popping bloons time

    Driftwood - A really dope downhill longboarding game featuring a sloth

    Calico - If you want something cute, a little bit like Animal Crossing but even more laid back

    Root - If you’re looking for multiplayer online board game (probably should do the tutorial not baked first tho)

    Cookie Clicker - Enough said

    For me it’s Skyrim but finally it’s a game you’re so familiar with that you don’t need any motor skills besides your muscle memory.

    GRIS. An absolutely gorgeous game with some relatively easy platforming and puzzles. It was published by Devolver Digital.

    If you are lightly toasted ECHO can be a lot of fun. Great visuals and plenty of ways to cheese your way around puzzles.

    Cloud Punk is a super chill cyberpunk taxi game. I don’t think I ever felt stressed playing it.

      Discovered Cloud Punk only recently and I completely agree - lovely little game. Gameplay itself is pretty chill and I really enjoyed the characters and storytelling. I feel like too many cyberpunk games are like “look at this rotten, desolate society based on greed and oppression” only to then go “fuck yeah, let’s make it to the top of that pyramid of injustice” instead of questioning it.

      I hope the developers can somehow keep that storytelling aspect in the upcoming sequel which looks much broader in scope, like a life sim set in the city of Nivalis.

      Also Peglin, if you ever wanted Peggle but as a roguelite deckbuilder.

    I play indies or roguelikes for this. It’s the most similar to old arcade cabinets experience from back in the day: you play a match, 15-30 minutes top, if you feel like it, rinse and repeat, otherwise not a big deal.

    I’m currently playing Hades. Dead Cells is even better.

    Dorfromantic: chill satistying game about building a landscape out of tiles, and matching biomes/rivers to get more points.

    Minecraft on peaceful: I like to do weird redstone projects in creative too.

    Titanfall 2/old school shooters: its weird but I blast music and play stuff that I can do mindlessly. And for me that’s deathmatch style shooters, where there’s no objective or anything, the respawn time is short, and you just run aroind blasting stuff.

    Open world games with time wasting sidequests: So most assassins creed games, corrupted zones/trials in HZD, wandering skyrim, etc.

    Edit: forgot, Mario Kart, its just fun and silly and I don’t mind just doing dumb shit and coming in last, so long as I hit koopa troopa with all the red shells because its dumb and I’m attacking him with his own brethren!
