Recommend a game for the missus!

OneZeoN · 27 Oct 2016 at 22:12

Hi!

My missus is looking to play more "casual" games on the pc and looking for some gems I might miss
She loves things like Sims,Unravelled,Theme park etc etc

Any ideas for a game that will keep her busy when she wants to game and let me do the same lol

I have a xbox pad she can also use if needed

Trine series is very good if she likes unravelled.

Maybe some telltale games like twd or another series more suited to her interests.

Lego games?

Thanks both

Just downloaded Ori and the blind forest definitive edition.
Will show here these 2 games when her soap crap is over lol

Ori is amazing. If she like Theme Park, check out Planet Coaster released next month.

Stardew Valley, cheap and simple yet deep. My budget game of the year by far.

Rimworld if she wants something amusing and a little different

Like sims.. but with maniacs and in-fighting.

This! The girlfriend and I started playing this recently. It's great (although somewhat flaky) with the mp mod

Theme Hospital/Park are timeless for me, always love jumping in to one of those games.

Despite saying she hates games, mine quite enjoyed Portal. Although it did give her motion sickness!

My partner takes great joy in watching me plummet to my death, usually through lasers or into gnawing machines.

Shii...

...and erm.. the only game my missus plays - Sonic Generations!

Barbie Horse World

The Talos Principle would get my vote, relaxing puzzle game with a brilliant story and very unique atmosphere. One of the best games I've ever played quite frankly.
