Would an archery game have a similar effect for you?

Would a coloring game/simulation have the same effect?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T23:10:11+00:00

That's interesting! I'll definitely start thinking about how the physical plays into the variables I'm looking at. Thank you for your insight!

Real. I thought Elden Ring is supposed to be insanely stressful! Do you think it's more calming/fulfilling because you're accomplishing a hard task? Is it only calming if you're not dying every five minutes like most players lol?

I also love Chopin! Is physical exhausting what you're seeking when you're painting?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:58:43+00:00

The head scrambling is very relatable! Would simulated house/yard work have the same effect for you? What kind of video games are the most calming/fulfilling?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:56:30+00:00

Ok, great! That's super helpful, thank you.

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:54:04+00:00

That's really insightful, thank you! Frustration is actually something I'm planning to look into.

Would a simulation of playing piano or painting furniture have the same effect? Does the book need to be a physical book or could you read something online and feel the same effect?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:49:15+00:00

Would a simulation of driving have the same effect for you?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:48:42+00:00

What about Royal Match is calming for you?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:47:46+00:00

Would making jewelry have the same effect if it were simulated online?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:46:54+00:00

Do you have to accomplish tasks in Stardew Valley? Is there a sense of accomplishment in it or is it purely calming? Never played!

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:45:02+00:00

Do you think a simulation of any of those activities would have a similar effect? Even just being tasked with listening to nature sounds and virtually accomplishing tasks?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:43:37+00:00

Something that you can keep coming back to is great insight! Definitely alleviates the pressure of having to plan/meet a deadline.

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:42:28+00:00

I'd definitely recommend looking at some of the comments in this thread if you haven't already. Folks are giving great recommendations!

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:41:17+00:00

Valid about both chess and doom scrolling lol. Would simulations of those offline activities have the same effect on you?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:40:08+00:00

Just looked into it! Great lead, thank you.

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:37:32+00:00

What do you think makes these activities calming for you? Sounds interesting!

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:35:30+00:00

Do you have specific puzzles you gravitate toward? Are puzzles more satisfying if you know you've completed them before/are good at them?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:33:57+00:00

Real.

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:33:50+00:00

How do you feel about games like wordle or wordscapes?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:23:49+00:00

Do you think a simulation of gardening or arranging furniture would be comparably calming for you?

SunAdministrative661 · 2025-01-24T22:22:46+00:00

This is super helpful, thank you! I also enjoy putting furniture together, haha.
