Prepare for an Important Exam: De-Stress

A free website that lets you listen to relaxing music. After the first half hour, you will need to make a free account.

Use this free tool to play nature sounds on headphones while reading or meditating or just for fun.

Ambient sounds to help you relax, focus, and escape.

This timer encourages you to do nothing for two minutes. If you move the mouse on screen, the timer restarts.

Interactive, generative art.

Draw a custom stickman and watch him come to life in this interactive stickman adventure.

Starting out as a tiny organism – basically a mouth and a torso – you have to swim around in blue gloop consuming other tiny organisms.

You’re a giraffe – at least in Casanova – trotting eastwards as a procession of other giraffes trots westwards. Each one has a neck of a different length, and all you have to do is click and hold the mouse button to extend yours so your heads meet for a kiss!

The missions you face are fairly straight forward to grasp; guide Fireboy (who hates water) and Watergirl (who hates fire) around the onscreen challenges until you reach the conclusion.

So today, we wanted to shine a light on the calmer side of gaming, showing off games that take it upon themselves to give you chill and relaxing experiences.
