This week on Polygon, we’re looking at games that feel like vacations for your brain. When you don’t want to worry about strategy or challenge or complex narratives, and you’re just in it for the experience. A sunny beach. A snowy cabin. A meditative drive. A… foggy small town designed to scare you? We’re celebrating the cozy places worth visiting when you want to relax, whether the games were designed with that purpose in mind or not. Welcome to Retreat Week.
