I am not a regular gamer, but once or twice in the week I am indulging in some after work gaming. Mostly I enjoy games that are either story rich to put different thoughts in my mind or games with a simple, but enjoyable gameplay (not too much micromanagement).

Here are my favorites for an after work gaming spree:

Football Manager (mainly 2008 and 2014 edition)
Citizen Sleeper
Suzerain
Disco Elysium
The Long Dark
Dave the Diver
Hotline Miami
System Shock 2
The Long Drive

What about you, what do you play after work (even occasionally) to get your mind off or do you have any suggestions in general?

Like most here I have a couple of games which I play for a few weeks before moving on to the next. The cycle (as of now) includes:

Terraria

Warframe

Elden Ring (Sometimes Bloodborne, DS1 or DS3)

Factorio (because fuck sleeping)

SYNTHETIK

Resident Evil 2 or 4 Remakes

These are the usual suspects I play over and over again. Sometimes I squeeze in a new game. Some of the last games were Outer Wilds, Dead Space Remake, Katamari Damacy REROLL, God of War Ragnarök and Boltgun. Right now I am farming the shit out of Warframe again, but I think I might give Starsector a shot. Looks like a lot of fun to me.

Games that have been a part of the cycle were: Destiny 1, Destiny 2 and Guild Wars 2, Fallout 4, Skyrim. I lost interest in these games after a couple of ~~hundred~~ thousand hours.
