I’m talking barebones. Tetris. Picross-like. Something that requires very little thought and is addictive.

For background, the reason I’m asking is because I recently read that researchers found that participants in a study on traumatic events saw that people who played tetris during their recovery had less traumatic response/activation over time? I’m currently going through a pretty traumatic time in life and am just looking for games that activate my lizard brain to forget about the hard times for a little while. Thanks in advance.

    The Binding of Isaac

    It’s such a good game to use in-between things. Went to the doctors yesterday and waited for 40 minutes but Isaac got me though waiting

      I’ll mention that the imagery and story of Binding of Isaac can be uh… tough, and depending on what OP is going through may not be a good choice.
