What games or levels are simultaneously relaxing, and tense?

Recommended Posts

Are there any games or levels you would say are both relaxing and tense at the same time?

That is how I feel about Echoes of the Eye in Outer Wilds. The dreamworld on the ship in that DLC is beautiful and relaxing for the most part. But having to sneak around in the dark and deal with the jump scares is anxiety-inducing.

Yes, games like "Journey" or "Abzû" are perfect examples. They’re calming and beautiful, yet moments of tension arise during challenging sections or emotional storytelling. It’s a unique blend that keeps you immersed, feeling both relaxed and on edge simultaneously.
