Edit

Sorry I haven't replied to anyone, life got a little crazy. I did not expect this many replies on lemmy! Thank you everyone, and I will be checking out a bunch of these! Thank you so much. :) I really appreciate it.

So, I hope this allowed, if not, I'll remove.

I have a small problem, y'all. I'm a filthy casual, and don't game often. But right now, due to a lot of very stressful things going on, I'm having trouble sleeping. I'd like a game I can play on the deck for an hour or two at night to get sleepy. Here's where the hard part comes in:

It's gotta be cheap (25 or less)

It needs to be not-stressful to play, as in, it works well on the deck, with no fiddling, because I am a dumb and don't understand things

I don't actually know what kind of game I want. I don't care for FPS games, I don't have the time/patience/money for online multiplayer stuff, and I'm not super in super heavy action games.

I like puzzles, platformers, laid back games. Open world is great. Very small games are fun, but I need something that I can play pretty much every night for a while. I loved portal and the Stanley parable, but I'm burnt out on TSP and I've played both portal games several times. I need something with a little more longevity.

Can anyone help with this not at all reasonable request?

Definitely check out INFRA (https://store.steampowered.com/app/251110/INFRA/) if you're into exploration puzzle games. I absolutely love the atmosphere in this game. It's on sale right now!

Portal reloaded and Tony hawk pro skater 3(ps2 emulator) are super chill games I can pickup and put down any time.

Sea of Stars. Nice RPG, inspired by Chrono Trigger. I've been playing that for some nights on my deck. Easy to engage, nice story and difficulty can be adjusted depending on how much time you want to invest.

I'm in a similar situation to you, except that I've got a Switch rather than a Steam Deck.

I've been playing Lego Jurassic World, and it should tick all your boxes. I've got no idea how the Lego games work on the Deck though.
