When you want a chill night in with a good strain, there’s nothing like a low-key video game to kick back and have a good time. It goes without saying that choosing the right game (and strain!) is essential. You’ll want to pick a strain with relaxing, euphoric, or happy effects that will stimulate your creativity without worrying about first-person shooter reflexes.
You can do just about anything in a video game if you choose the right one—but for a night in, the stakes should be low, the scenery should be vibrant, and where you end up should be all up to you.
Below, we’ve curated eight fantastic games with relaxed, feel-good vibes that suit a stoned gaming sesh. Settle down, pack a bowl, and leave the stress of the day-to-day behind as you play alone or with those close to you.
Stardew Valley

Move away from your fast-paced, dreary office job and immerse yourself in your grandfather’s old farm, bringing it back to life with farming, animal husbandry, mining, fishing, collecting, befriending, and romancing villagers— and even some light combat.

For the intergalactic voyager comes this colorful and creative game. The Astroneer graphics alone will have you mesmerized as you explore distant, glittery planets bursting with vibrant colors.

For those unfamiliar, slimes are bouncy, smiley, little rotund alien creatures.
Capture and corral the creatures to help build your world, and create gadgets while feeding and taking care of your collection of slimes.

Dreamlight Valley

Whatever the case, the latest iteration of the game, The Sims 4, offers the gameplay versatility that makes it a great choice for a chilled night in.
Let your creativity run free in Create-A-Sim or Build Mode by creating a perfectly styled sim or building your dream house. When you’re done, watch your Sim create floral arrangements.
