Can you recommend single player games with no story for casual gamers?

Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Although more of a life - simulation game, it has a story in the sense that you are building a community on your island. You interact with various animal villagers, and there are events and goals to achieve throughout the year.

Sure. 'Avorion' is a great option. It's a space sandbox game where you can build and command your own fleet. You can trade, fight pirates, and explore the galaxy. There's no strong story element, so you can just relax and do whatever you like in the game world.

For casual gamers, 'Brawlhalla' is a great choice. The story mode is not too difficult and has a fun narrative about the different characters. 'Warframe' can also be enjoyable. You can take your time to explore the story, which is about a war - torn sci - fi universe and your role as a Tenno. 'Path of Exile' has a lot of depth in its story, but you can play at your own pace. There are different quests and areas to discover that gradually unfold the story of the dark fantasy world.

Sure. 'Stardew Valley' is a great choice. It's a farming simulator where you inherit a run - down farm. As you build it up, you interact with the local villagers, and there are many storylines related to friendship, love, and the secrets of the town. It's very relaxing and has a heartwarming story. Another is 'Among Us'. While the main gameplay is about finding the impostor, there's an underlying story about the crewmates' mission and the threat of the impostors that can be quite interesting for casual play.

Pac - Man. It has a very basic premise of a little yellow circle eating dots and avoiding ghosts. There's no elaborate story here, just pure arcade - style gameplay that's easy to pick up and play for short bursts.

Among Us can be considered too. It's a multiplayer game where you're either a crewmate or an impostor on a spaceship. The goal is to complete tasks or deceive others respectively. There's no real story, and it's easy and fun for casual gamers to jump into.

'Uncharted 4: A Thief's End' is a great choice. The story follows Nathan Drake on his final adventure as he searches for a long - lost pirate treasure. It has all the elements of a great adventure story: exciting set - pieces, a great cast of characters, and a plot full of twists and turns.

Portal. It has a simple yet really engaging story. You play as Chell in a test facility run by a malevolent AI named GLaDOS. The puzzles are part of the story - as you progress through the chambers, you uncover more about the facility and GLaDOS's motives. It's short but very memorable.

Life Is Strange. This game is great for beginners as it focuses on the story of a young girl, Max, who discovers she can rewind time. The choices you make as Max affect the story in different ways. It's a story about friendship, secrets, and the power of choice, and it's presented in a very accessible way with beautiful visuals.

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. It has a relatively easy - to - follow story that is still exciting. You follow Nathan Drake on his final adventure, full of treasure hunting, action - packed sequences, and some emotional moments. The graphics are also great which enhances the overall experience.
