Last night was the worst night of my life, but I feel that I can finally begin to heal. Can someone recommend a nice 15-30 hour game for someone healing from a 17 year abusive relationship? I just need a distraction for a week or two.

I was just eyeing that, it's on sale right now.

I see SG has their whole portfolio on sale. Transistor and Bastion are both beautiful games and while Pyre is a bit more niche (the game play is basically wizard basketball) they're all really well done. Hades is definitely their golden child but I simp pretty hard for all SuperGiant offerings. The music is particularly special imo, Darren Korb and Ashley Barrett always knock it out of the park while giving each game a distinctive tone. The first time I played Transistor I'd frequently put the controller down to admire the backdrop and music.
