A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Hey all, Sorry if this is not a great magazine to post this. I'm looking for a nice cozy game (for a non-gamer!) to play for about an hour or so a day instead of doomscrolling. I like the idea of a game where I can make slow progress, though I don't tend to like the traditional RPG style. But something like a slow moving simulator or whatever could be great (for example, I really enjoy MiniMetro on mobile). Thoughts?

i think Cozy Grove (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1458100/Cozy_Grove/) might be interesting for you, it's basically Animal Crossing but with bears, and its designed so you can only make a max amount of progress per day, so no addiction

trying to think of other games, I'll update this comment if I find more!
