School is hard work. Homework and studying can often stress people out.

Right now i just need a few stress free minutes to let it all out.

Can you guys recommend some relaxing computer games before i pull my hair out?! Anything is greatly appreciated

Try Plague Inc. Use strategy to wipe out the human race. Definitely relaxing.

The Civ franchise is great to curl up with and relax. Muted soundtracks and a slow pace help.
FTL is a GREAT game with an awesome soundtrack. The first few plays are tough, but once you get the hang of it, it's a really chill, relaxing game.
I've heard that Cities: Skylines is super relaxing, but I have yet to try it. Next on my wish list.

Godville. it was andoid/iphone game. there was a browser to play it on pc too. just google it.

it has a beginner curve and it is a ZPG genre. the only genre out there. or if you had familiar with the gameplay it lean toward idle play.

and so much puns in the game haha... definietly relaxing.

Monument Valley- I can recommend this game enough. Its gorgeous, its smart, and its as relaxing as you can get with mobile games.
Its so beautiful that you can literally use any of the levels as a screensaver-

It revolves around puzzles that are based on impossible shapes such as the Penrose Triangle. It costs money but it is well worth it. I was so enamored by the game I purchased the dlc's as soon as I had finished it.

Its a brain bender at times but its so peaceful that you feel no real pressure to solve them. You can quietly leave take a break and maybe come back with a new perspective that can crack the puzzle.

Excellently crafted, highly recommended
