Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on the switch.
Pokemon Silver/Gold.
Recently, Path of Titans as well.

Not sure what a comfort game is. I love TES, but when I just want something easy on the mind I'll pick an AARPG. Path of Exile is a good one. Clear a map, loot, repeat. No complicated moves or exploration required. Etc.
It used to be Astroneer, but now I think I'm on Peglin or Vampire Survivors (or Spell Brigade if I have friends online).
They're both just so mindless and relaxed for the most part. Also typically short and sweet with a definite end so it feels wrapped up.
Sexy Parodius
It's super fun to get drunk and play through. Fantastic music! Gotta MAME it, though. Unless you actually have a Sexy Parodius machine.
ss14!
Ditto for ETS2 / ATS. I don't play them enough. With the Road Trip update coming out soon, it'll be even better. I've been craving a solid driving sim that's not racing. A leisurely drive through the Nordic landscape would be great.
Other than that, if I have the energy and wherewithal to stand, Skyrim VR, sometimes it's nice to wander without worry.
Ridge Racer Type 4 for the Original PlayStation
I haven't been playing it much, but Chuzzle Deluxe and Mahjong (the match 2 tiles, clear board version).
I don't know the exact specific version of Mahjong my grandma used to have on her laptop because it's generic and has 3 trillion different clones/versions of it, but the reason I haven't gotten rid of the KDE version on my laptop is because it reminds me, in a way, of a long time ago when I'd spend time with her. Same with Chuzzle.
I had a pretty good time earlier on my laptop just spending a little bit of time in the zen chuzzle mode and it was great. 10/10 would recommend.
I also learned earlier today that there was a Christmas skinned version and there's a non-EA Chuzzle 2 mobile game out, but as of now the Christmas version isn't available ( as of May 15, 2025 ) unless you pirate it.
Guild Wars 2, it can be extremely cozy in places. Beautiful environments, it lets you run around and just stumble across something to do, and you can get in a groove doing a map meta with a series of events leading to a big boss fight with 50+ people all participating and then you can just run off later harvesting leeks or whatever. I can just zone out watching a show on my other monitor while working on a collection or an achievement or getting flax or something.
Probably LOTRO or Enshrouded.
