The format of these posts is simple: let’s discuss a specific game or series!
I’m in quite a bad place mentally at the moment, so I wasn’t really feeling like making a post. But then I thought, I could combine this in the form of a special discussion topic:
Let’s discuss your favorite Uplifting Games. What helps you when your feeling down or stressed out. What game series has comforted you in harder times. Are there certain genres that work better for you in these times? Feel free to share anything that comes up and react to other comments. Let’s get the conversation going!
If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

For uplifting, I like chill games where people are nice to each other.
Hades has you piece back together your family and has a lot of great dialog.
Carto is a cute puzzle game involving rearranging maps where you help people on your way back home.
Haven is a young couple trying to make it on an alien planet.
Children of Morta is a family fighting together against an apocalypse.
Dreamscaper is a rogue lite where you get mechanically stronger through self care as you work your way through trauma by hitting it in your dreams.
Ni no Kuni 1 and 2 are longer jrpgs in a Studio Ghibli style world.
Grandia is another jrpg that does a good job at capturing an adventurous spirit.
