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

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

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

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.

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

They are Billions

All it needs is One. Single. Fucking. Mistake.

An old favorite of mine is Harvest: Massive Encounter. Expand, harvest, defend, optimize, and eventually get wiped out.

Don’t know if it counts: Factorio on deathworld. I thought it’s impossible until I saw dosh beating it and Mods even worse than that.

Subnautica, because I'm terrified of deep water.

I really wanted to play this game but I couldn’t handle the phobia stress!

If you have arachnophobia then Satisfactory will be up the.

They have a built in arachnophobia setting, it turns them into kittens.

Does Fortnite count? Playing against cracked out 10 year olds, who build a fortification faster than you can say "fortification" is stressful as fuck

I mean, you know the game.. RUST

[–] [email protected] 4 points 14 hours ago

I don't even play the game and I panic while watching

The original Quake. The graphics makes me nauseous, almost to the point of puking.

Not a base-building game.
