Any relaxational video games out there?

Anybody know of any relaxational video games out there? 3D? Like when you're trying to relax after a stressful day, and most games add more stress.

Even though it is based on evolution, with which I disagree, I really enjoy playing the game Spore. It is very relaxing to me.

Dust an elysian tail is pretty relaxing on easy. Minecraft, Garry's Mod.

Pilotwings on the N64 also!

Ah, Brian, I love Pilotwings 64!

Let's see... Brain Age 2 contains a game primarily meant for relaxing.

In a way, I find LEGO City: Undercover for the Wii U to be relaxing, at least after you beat the game. There's a huge world to explore. I can't explain why, but I find Wii Sports Resort to be relaxing too. de Blob has plenty of exploration.

Minecraft is very relaxing when you set it to peaceful mode (no bad guys). I have about 20 different gamesaves where I have built homes in mountains, near waterfalls, on islands...etc done in a peaceful mood. I also have a high resolution texture and game mod that makes it look more real (well as real as you get with blocks) so its peaceful.

And yeah Spore is peaceful too. Another game I played is Just Cause, I love to just explore the island. Sitting on mountains, parachuting off and all that. So relaxing. Of course you can do that in any open world game like skyrim.

There are also Flight Simulators which a lot of people enjoy. There is even a free one that is very well developed called Flight Gear.

I can't believe I overlooked these games... Harvest Moon games and Animal Crossing games are relaxing. They involve living in a village, interacting with others, and don't have a real goal. You can live as you please. These series have entries on many different systems.

Thanks for all the suggestions, peoples. I'll have to check those out.

Final Fantasy Prelude harp version　ファイナルファンタジー　プレリュード - YouTube

Someone playing the final fantasy 1 theme in harp, very soothing.

Flow, Flower, Datura, Unfinished Swan, Dear Esther, Child of Eden.

 

[HorsieJuice]

Dear Esther was relaxing (at least, what I played of it was)

 

[Gadarene]

I like to relax after a hard day's work with a nice relaxing game of Amnesia: Dark Descent with all the lights turned off.

For relaxation, I usually turn to the turn-based games like Civilization 5. That way I don't have to be frantically mashing buttons. I take my time looking stuff over and when I'm done my turn, click a button.

Ecco the Dolphin , the Game is hard though,

I highly recommend 'To the Moon'. It has more emphasis on the story, and it's a good one.

Ecco the dolphin was stressful not relaxing, you had to avoid sharks, and giant grabs, and try not to drown(dolphins need to come up for air), I do not want a sim-fish game.
