What's a good, relaxing PS5 game to while away the time? My ex used The Sims, a lot of people use Animal Crossing. I only have a PC and a PS5, and sometimes it's nice to cuddle up on the couch under a blanket in this cold weather.

So far one I've considered while browsing the recent sales is Cities:Skylines, but not sure how it plays with a controller. And I haven't see Stardew Valley have a sale pop up yet, but that sounds relaxing as well. I have no other ideas lol.

On sale right now on steam, and I see you mention Stardew Valley:

Paleo Pines.

It's a dinosaur taming/farming game that plays very similarly to Animal Crossing/Stardew Valley, and a tiny bit of Ark: Survival Evolved. You have a ranch that you steadily clear out and open up with the help of your tamed dino friends, there are villagers that will have little quests for you to do, a simple and sweet narrative, and it's all tied together by an extremely adorable aesthetic. There's also a demo available that lets you play through the first 12 days, but that's plenty of time (at my pace it would have taken me about 8-10 hours to get there) for you to sink your teeth into it and find out if you'll like it or not. It's super casual, and there's no real penalty for failing anything.
