I've had a great time playing some of the 'smaller' games lately: Dredge (adore this game so much), Dave the Diver, Cloudpunk, Stray, Octopath II, Observer.

What else would I like? That aren't roguelikes or crafting-building games (don't hate me, I tried to love Subnautica...as a diver I should love it, but the genre just isn't for me!).

Would love any suggestions!

A short Hike: It's a pretty short relaxing game. Low stake, no stress.

Chained Echoes: I don't know how long Octopath 2 is, I only finished the first game, but since you mentioned it you may like this one. It's a turn based rpg, but there is basically no grind. Your party is fully heal between each fights. It's quite respectful of a player's time in that way.

I knew that I was going to enjoy A Short Hike before I played it. What I didn't expect was how much I enjoyed it. There's so much more there than I anticipated and some of it is really lovely.

A Short Hike only took me around two hours to finish but those were some of the finest two hours I've experienced.
