Cities Skylines is often the perfect game for me to just zone out and chill, it surely didn't run on a smooth 60 fps for me on my i7 laptop with no gpu but it performed well enough for me.

I just like to spend a couple of hours laying new railroads and streets and just expanding my city, be aware though the game can be a timesink if you're not careful.

"Hexcells Infinite" is a great stress-free (and cheap) game. It plays like Minesweeper, but every puzzle is completely solvable with just logic (there is never a need to guess!)

What do you think of turn based games like XCOM? I've found I can enjoy the planning and execution of a plan more when I'm not stressing about actions per minute or micro managing a ton of things.

Do you have a console or is it just the laptop?
