Dear community,

I’m looking for a similar (calm) game like Portal 1/2 or Firewatch that I can play on macOS with a similar vibe. The last time I played a game is years ago, and I wish I had at least once a week a nice single-player game that I can play 1-2 hours. =)

I enjoyed Portal because I had to plan out what I’m doing before I act (without being pressured to act), the atmosphere of the game was legendary and I liked that little robot following me. Firewatch had a calm amazing story, there was no ‘action’ but sometimes that feeling that something could happen. It was a nice exploring game.

Any ideas?

    Games similar to portal:

    • The Talos Principle 1 & 2
    • Antichamber
    • Superliminal
    • Viewfinder
    • Manifold Garden

    Similar to Firewatch:

    • Umurangi Generation
    • Return of the Obra Dinn

    Other stuff that might interest you that I haven’t seen already recommended:

    • Journey
    • Abzu
    • Exo One
    • Wytchwood
    • Cairn (tentatively. This game can get stressful)
    • Dinkum
    • Untitled Goose Game
    • A Lego game (Any of them. They all follow the same formula)
    • Flower

    No idea if any of those work on Mac though. If you have an intel based mac you can use bootcamp to dual boot windows, and unlock maaaaany games.
