There are those that help us relax, chill, and unwind.

And then there are the others. Which one stresses you out like no other?

Sounds like you just need to play an RTS game.

Against The Storm, They Are Billions, Rimworld and The Last Spell. I often feel like I’m on the brink of losing and it’s so satisfying to win in those games.

Oxygen Not Included. it’s just a constant stream of entropy-driven-crisis mitigation.

my current issue is that part of an oil field deep underground briefly became too hot and since then my base has been slowly filling with toxic sour gas. the only way to get rid of it is to turn it into methane and sulfur by cooling it to -160 degrees but i don’t produce enough hydrogen to run the thermal nullifier.

You can always vent the gas to space. Door crushers work great if you don’t mind exploits. Sour gas is useless until late game.

You should liquid lock your base to prevent unwanted gases from getting in.

My best tip for oni is after 4 dupes the number of dupes is the difficulty setting. Grow slowly.

I’d shot for supercoolent next. With that and a proper counterflow exchanger a sour gas boiler is just a lot of construction.

Currently on day 600 on my current file. Still having power and heat regulation issues. Some things never change!

Project Zomboid, because being surprised attacked or swarmed by zombies scares me

Yeah I really like Zomboid because no matter how established you are, it only takes one fuck-up or unlucky break and you’re done for. So the fear never really lets up.

I actually had an experience in that game that I don’t think I’ve ever had in a game before - I was sneaking around at night looting houses, and I got to one house, perfectly normal looking and some instinct in my brain went “nope, there’s something bad there” and I just walked away and went home lol.

You do know 7 days to die? A lot less deadly, first person and much more base building. Still overall a similar concept.

Factorio on death world settings. If not stressful enough install the rampant biters mod.
